Well if renaults are that crap why are they the current F1 Champions and dominating again this season? I have owned more Renaults than any other car in the last 16 years 5GT Turbo, Twingo !!!! 19 16v Hatch, Espace Initialle, Modus and my excellent 225.
Sure they have had a few problems, but at the end of the day they are mechanical pieces of equipment that get a good hammering, left outside in all weathers etc etc. No one shouts that their Philips Tv is crap because the tube goes after a few years, or the tumble dryer packs up after a few years. I appreciate they aren't as costly so it's all relative.
With regards to if you want 5 star service go with Audi etc, disagree. I bought 5 new cars from BMW in the space of 8 months, nothing but hassle, filled me full of crap with excuses why the cars did this and that. Tried to treat me like an idiot at first as if I knew nowt bout engineering, soon changed their tune when I told them I was a First Class Aircraft Engineer with over 15 years experience and a HND in Aeronautical Engineering!!!!
Each to their own opinion though and I respect that. Simple if you don't like them don't buy them.
Regards to all our readers, hope to meet you at the French Car Show.
