Renault Grand Scenic (2009 - 2016) 1.5 dCi Dynamique 5d (2009/59) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

must need the space.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

it's a lovely little people carrier.

Would you buy this car again and why?

yes.

What are you likely to buy next?

Ford Grand C-Max

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£0

When did you buy the car?

November 2009

Did you get a good deal and why?

company car, so not a deal, but the good pricing meant the Zafira offered by the company was an Exclusiv base model

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Need seven seats (4 kids) and choice limited to this or a Zafira.

What was the dealer like?

While viewing cars the local dealer was helpful even though they were not getting a sale - will book the servicing through them.

What's it like to drive?

well it's a 1.5 diesel in a heavy car so not sporty, but once used to the power band can keep up with any traffic. Can manage 50mpg on a motorway.

What's it like to park?

rear parking sensors make it a doddle (i'm a man so have never really had a problem here anyway)

Have you had any problems with the car?

No - but only 6 weeks and 6000 miles on the clock so far. Feels solid.

What's most practical about your car?

The separate middle row of 3 seats adds practicality as I've removed middle seat and kids can climb into back without needing to move anything - kids state that the Zafira had more legroom in the back seats.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The TFT screen with steering wheel controlled menu's that operate everything including the phone and ipod are brilliant.
