Door pocket lid on passenger side has come off.
Fuel injection sensor needs to be replaced.
Drives like a dream.
The leather still makes the car smell like new and feels like your driving about in your favorite chair.
It is fully loaded with every possible toy.
It's far more car for the money with an excellent name like Renault behind it.
Excellent car, very comfortable. Funnily enough however I have had the very same faults as experienced by previous contributor i.e. lid broken off on right-hand door compartment, and needed cam shaft sensor replaced in respect of fuel injection system. The 2.5 litre Volvo engine makes all the difference to the performance. The 2 litre version is a bit sluggish for the solid bodywork of this big vehicle.
We have had the exact same faults! However, we are extremely pleased with our purchase and enjoy every drive made in it. A lot of car (secondhand) for the money with fantastic boot space.
I have a 98 Safrane 2.0 standard edition.
My door lit on the passengerdor also came of!
What a great car, excellent second hand buy, I love it.

I Purchased a Safrane RTE Executive 6 months ago and guess what? My drivers door pocket lid has come off too! Suggest super-gluing it back on as I have done - they do make a comfortable arm rest.
It's an outstanding car for the money with a real feel-good comfortable driving position.I Drove 352 miles in it without a break once and didn't even feel journey tired after wards.
The spec is very high compared to other makes price for price.
I certainly recommend one, you won't be disappointed!
