Question Author
I was looking at an S-max the other day-gorgeous!
A S/H Zafira is more in my price range, tho.
I used to have a Zafira 1.8 petrol and I loved it, once you get used to the upright driving position its great. Very practical and spacious.
The only negatives are the gearing which is very short, which means 5th gear always felt like fourth, not ideal if you do a lot of high speed motorway miles, and a big blind spot at the drivers side front which means you regularly hit pedestrians(Joke!)
apart from that I loved it. I would certainly have one again, but I would perhaps go for the diesel version. The only reason I dont have one now is because I need to carry ladders for work and its a bit too tall for easy oading on to the roof rack.
the best mpv for safety is the espace,but overall for looks,reliability and consumption,it has to be the chrysler voyager 2.8 diesel
I bought a Renault Espace , new from a Renault dealer and had nothing but trouble, it was back to the dealer continuously with problems culminating with a new gearbox (auto) at just 26,000 on the clock .As the vehicle was bought in 1996 it had just 1 years warranty. The gearbox cost me �1500 to replace and I part exchanged it in2000 for a VW sharan which has been brilliant with a fault free 6 years of use. This experience has put me off Renaults for life.
renault scenic.....superb to drive !
