1987 Renault 25 GTS review from UK and Ireland
"In my opinion, the best R25 overall and a far better car than many people believe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing worth talking about. In 13 years it's had a couple of batteries, a clutch (cost £97 fitted) and a few other minor things. I've heard of two year old cars with far more problems.
General comments?
Extremely comfortable, reliable and good looking car. Still no rust after 13 years and a fair mileage.
40-45 MPG can be achieved on longer runs.
Must be the most reliable model in the range as everyone you speak to says the 2.0 manual's just go on and on. Shame the Auto boxes weren't built as well as the manual!
I'd recommmend a well looked after GTS or TX to anyone who wants a cheap to own older car which you can pick up for next to nothing.
