Well as I expect you know I have had mine since December 02. Within the first two weeks the battery was U.S. This was over the Christmas period and I was on stand by so purchased one from Halfords as they were open where as the Dealer had shut up shop.
The car had been supplied with continental head lights, they dipped to the wrong side of the road. Work covered under warranty.
Going up to Peterborough had miss fire, that was on the Monday morning, arranged to take car into Dealer Thursday and at the smae time fuel mass flow computor had stopped working.
Dealer replaced one coil and a spark plug now all O.K.
Ordered up new mass flow fuel computor, this has now been installed and works fine now. Again under warranty.
All services have been covered by Renault Dealers, first one I fell out with as he put fully synthetic oil at a cost of £11.65 per litre and put in over 6.5 litres.
I now use another one down the road and he has never been a problem. Courtesey car etc, but as per normal a bit expensive.
The services have averaged about £210 each servive over this period.
Back tyres every 12k, front tyres every 24K, used Michelene up to now, tyring a set of Toyos now, road holding seems better and quieter. Not sure abot the wear at present.
Brake pads still O.K. but will need some in the near future.
No oil used between services.
Over the 40K have averaged 30m.p.g. most miles I tend to go M1, M25, A1 then across country etc. Loads of cameras so you have to be carefull.
Car is low and have had to replace front rubber air dam about £120.
Also going up and down motor ways both fog lights have had to be replaced.
Wheels are quite vunerable due to size and restricted turning circle. I now have a spare set for when I sell.
Being silver cleans up and looks the dogs. The number of people that speak to you is amazing, from young to the very old.
Other than that above nothing to tell.
Any more information just let me know.
