Renault Kangoo 1.4 Helios 5d (2000/X) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
£8k new! Nothing else comes close with so much style. I looked at Scenics and the rest but nothing else can fit in a single bed and with the open roof anything can fit, amazing.
Costs
Well it's a Renault isn't it, so some bits are pricey, except petrol at 45mpg.

On the road
Driving
I know I've driven many miles in this car, and it is just as good(ish) as the Clio I swapped it for.
Performance
It is a van but I have travelled from Southampton to Prestatyn in just over 5 hours at 80 most of the way so can't complain.

Living with it
Reliability
Hasn't gone wrong except dreaded rusty rear window frames.
Image
Now I think it is cool like a Beetle, Renault 4, or Landie; it is up to you whether that is good or bad.
Comfort
Not quite a sofa, but I think the upright seating position is more comfortable than a laying down normal car.

Security and Service
Security
I don't know. Got alarm and immobiliser plus nobody's going to nick it anyway.
Service
Dealers are okay, but Renault are a right pain in the bum.
