2002 Renault Espace The Race review from UK and Ireland
"Too many problems for an expensive car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car has had four brand new doors fitted, because of rust on the window frames. It's broken down once, had twanging on the power steering and it's also had a repair for an airbag malfunction. However, despite the latter, the side airbag detonated whilst the car was stationary, shattering the driver's window and showering me in glass. A frightening experience, but thankfully our children were not on board!
