1990 Renault 25 R Baccara review from Germany
"One of the best cars ever built by Renault"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far I cannot complain about any item that broke of my fully equipped R 25.
Even the automatic gear is working properly so far (but as far as I know it was replaced at 80000 km before I got the car)
Only the brakes on the rear are a matter of frequent repair. This I was told is typical for the R 25.
Of course the consumption of gasoline is quite high especially in the city traffic (about 13-15 litres). On highways at steady speed of 110 km/h I was able to reach 8,9 litres/100 km which is acceptable.
General comments?
The comfort of this car is excellent.
Driving with it is always a pleasure.
