Renault Scenic 1.9 dCi Expression 5d (2003/53) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Quite a lot of money for a car with many delivery faults. You pay nearly £2000 extra for the better diesel engine.
Costs
Good fuel economy, but servicing costs will be high. You have to remove the whole bumper to change a headlight bulb.

On the road
Driving
Lovely to drive out of town, but 2nd gear ratio is far too high for a six speed box. I often have to change down to 1st in traffic.
Performance
Plenty of torque from the diesel engine makes overtaking easy.

Living with it
Reliability
Terrible. See faults below.
Image

Comfort
Renault cars have always been comfortable and this is no exception.

Security
