Living with it
Reliability
One problem with clutch microswitch, fixed now for 10 months no problems. Occasional display errors, just switch ignition off, allow 30 seconds for 4 PC systems to power down, then start car again seems to cure it.
Image
We like it. Planning convertible next.
Comfort
Stiff rear suspension lets it down.

Security
No probs with alarm and electrics.
Service
Mackie Motors Brechin, Scotland, was or maybe still is the UK's No 1 Renault Dealer...no contest! Avoid Reg Vardy, waste of time and effort.
