Faults:

The computer had gone, new coil pack, starter motor and the Head Gasket has blown; all of this within 2 months of having brought the car private. The total repair costs came to a huge approximate figure of £1500.

General Comments:

It is a good car, compared to other cars in the same year, size and shape it comes well equipped and handles superbly well for a small car. The engine is very nippy too, though having the car full of 4-5 passengers does show on the petrol needle and performance.

Faults:

I am owner of this car for a year and nothing really gone wrong. Probably the ex-owner make good work with services.

General Comments:

In this car I love to drive, especially in a road full of turns. The brakes are marvelous.

The specific model has full of extra equipment, such as leather, automatic gear, air condition, wood in tableau and rim (disk wheel) from aluminium. A little Rolls Roys.

Faults:

Dodgy electrics including dial lights, interior lights and heater.

Drivers side seat a little worn.

General Comments:

Quick, but not as fast as I was expecting! More like 8.5 to sixty than 7.7 as broadcast. Handles great and with new pads the brakes are superb!

Faults:

Oil temperature gauge has stopped working.

Rear wiper only works sometimes.

General Comments:

140bhp, 130mph, 0-60 in 7.7secs and only insurance group 12. My kind of car.

It drives like a much bigger car, as it is very comfortable.

I love this car!

Faults:

Badly aligned gear shift.

2x oil gauges malfunctioning.

Water leak from the roof aerial.

Worn hydraulic brake cable.

Fire/heat-proof protection loose.

General Comments:

At 138 bhp and 7.8 seconds this car is a real Q car!

The builtup seats are the best I've sat in... real good support!

A good clean body shape with no extra fairings and stuff to ruin the clean lines!

Great performance both in town and on the motorway.

Faults:

Suspension was awful on purchase but replaced.

More rust than I expected there to be.

Renault radio/tape runs slow, speakers vibrate.

General Comments:

Without PAS they are very difficult to manouver at parking speeds and a pain round tight corners and roundabouts.

It is noisy at speed and rattly on bumpy roads.

Faults:

I bought this car second hand and got it when I was 17. For the first couple of months it was fine, then the gearbox just completely went on me. I had to therefore replace the gearbox which cost me a lot of money. Poor drive in the mornings when cold. Brakes are also shockingly bad on this car, you will need to keep a close eye on them!

General Comments:

Nice car for the first few thousand miles but my advice is if the car has done more than 50,000 stay well clear!
