Overall reliability

Reliable M-way load lugger and family run around.

Bought this as it gave a great deal of load space, and promised good MPG. I wasn't disappointed. The only thing to have gone wrong was the front electric windows. A known problem and fixed with a Renault 50% contribution of £160. Regular servicing at 18000 (not 12 as per details elsewhere) return 50-60mpg depending on weight of right foot. I did earn 3 points, so a little more careful now. I've never had a problem lifting rear seat bases in order to get flat load area. Shame no where to store rear load cover if you need to take it out though. Great visibility all round meaning teaching daughter to drive and pass first time was easy. Smooth drive, over long distances (Durham to Portsmouth was a regular feature) means have covered 80,000 in 4 years. Now looking to replace, but only because I can, not because I have to. Still looks good, and squared off rear means bike carrying is easy too.
Toys on board such as a/c, cruise/limiter etc have all been fine. Will be getting the Clio Tourer next - running for two years to pass on to daughter when she graduates.
