1993 Renault Safrane RT review from UK and Ireland
"A much underrated long distance comfortable cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air con leaks and needs recharging annually.
Apart from this NO faults to report.
General comments?
A very comfortable long distance cruiser.
Imperative to change cam belt when due and NEVER run with just water in radiator, use CORRECT red or yellow coolant to avoid head gasket problems. This is easy sourced if you ask motor factors and not expensive.
Don't play with computer repeat buttons, leave alone to avoid false alerts.
An easy right foot will give excellent fuel economy.
If the car is automatic DO USE the handbrake to avoid seized calipers.
