Great ride, but notchy gearbox. A bit too much body roll.

Good performance for a 1.6, but you have to work it.

Living with it
Reliability
No major problems whatsoever (so far), but 2 or 3 annoying niggles from new.
Image
Not quite the looker it once was, but still very tasteful and stylish. Platinum paint superb.
Comfort
Excellent seats and driving position. Long journeys no problem.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser standard, but no alarm or deadlocks.
Service
Nothing to complain about so far. Renault and dealer (Franklins, Bishops Stortford) have been good.
