2006 Renault Grand Scenic 1.6 petrol

Summary:

Comfortable french car

Faults:

Rear brake pads were completely worn out when we bought the car. Also the upper rubber bushing on the front strut needed replacing.

A/C could do with a top up.

All in all, nothing major, and since everything is done in my own garage, those aren't big issues.

General Comments:

Cheap and cheerful car with lots of space. Everything works, and on the road it is a joy to drive.

The 1.6 might be low on power when fully laden, but normally I drive alone, so performance isn't an issue.

My family loves our new french connection.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Have been driving the 1.6 for a month and enjoying it. The only problem was oil leaking from the gear box breather pipe, but now that's fixed. Happy with the car for now.
