Head Wreck Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 hopefully at the end of the month, HW's new wheels will be one of these. if someone doesn't snap it up before i can get down to the garage quick nough when its due in: Excited! 1.5 litre, 106 bhp, 60mpg combined. oodles of boot space, and french car ride quality
Saint Germain Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 I don´t know if I would buy me a French car, or maybe....
Miranda Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 That's pretty nice! Lots of room but still sleek. Hope you get it.
ttogreh Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Meh. It's French. What I would love is if Volkswagen would start manufacturing the One Liter, 100 kilometer car tomorrow. It certainly is not roomy, but it is safe, and for a commuter car...
Msterbeau Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Nissan owns Renault. Maybe they're teaching them a thing or two about quality.
jynxxxedangel Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Renault are pretty good cars. I would not dispute the quality. My girlfriend had an ancient Renault wagon with over 500,000 miles on it! It finally died on the wayside about three years ago. That thing was a tank, and built to last-- but the after-market parts were ungodly expensive, as I recall.
ttogreh Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 I believe in Limey-land they are called Estate Cars, HH.
Head Wreck Posted June 19, 2008 Author Posted June 19, 2008 I don´t know if I would buy me a French car, or maybe.... thoe are niiice. and hydrogas suspension... with my freeway/motorway/autobahn drive style that means floaty magic carpet ride. i have a stable job but still not daft enough to warant buying brand new That's pretty nice! Lots of room but still sleek. Hope you get it. me to, it ticks all my requirement boxes, boot/trunk space is paramount, the more i have the more stays out of prying eyes view Meh. It's French. What I would love is if Volkswagen would start manufacturing the One Liter, 100 kilometer car tomorrow. It certainly is not roomy, but it is safe, and for a commuter car... i need room. I' am starting to Snipe in winter months and my M700TDS isnt that relaible, but the L96 is, but it doesnt break down into minute pieces like remmie does Nissan owns Renault. Maybe they're teaching them a thing or two about quality. possibly, first of the 2nd gen lagunas were pretty fucking awful on the electrics side. worse than a fiat, confounded by keyless entry Renault are pretty good cars. I would not dispute the quality. My girlfriend had an ancient Renault wagon with over 500,000 miles on it! It finally died on the wayside about three years ago. That thing was a tank, and built to last-- but the after-market parts were ungodly expensive, as I recall. the advantage of being in europe are that parts are cheaper than having to import them from foregnia Its a station wagon! or so I believe in Limey-land they are called Estate Cars, HH. indeed. the megane line up: Coupe/Cabrio Standard 5 Door Standard 3 Door 4 Door Sedan one for Marc: WRC Concept (computer generated images)

Head Wreck Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 aye, but theres allways one. one of my collegues has been playing about with a Lister XJS the past few weeks
Head Wreck Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 update: dealer was jerking me around, so i went to a local Renault Dealer and put a deposit down on a second hand Peugeot 307. one of the rare 1.4 HDi's, a car i'd given up hope of finding when i started looking at a Renault
