Should I replace my Renault with a Dacia?

I currently own a 20 year old Renault Espace diesel. It has been a brilliant family vehicle and covered more than 200,000 miles. Would a Dacia Logan Estate be a suitable replacement?

I occasionally do long continental journeys and my commute is around 60 miles a day. Both the 1.5 diesel and the 0.9 petrol turbo engines look well designed. What do you think?

For your type of use, better the 1.5 diesel. This is an old Renault engine brought up to date and is actually used in the Mercedes A Class.
