Advantages: None Disadvantages: Damaged car, never advised when purchasing!
I bought a Renault Clio 172 Cup from Lookers Renault in April 2004. The car was an ex-demonstrator, I had an incident with the car where I needed some repair work done to one of the wings...whereon I was advised by the bodyshop that some 'touch-up' paint had been used to cover damage! I was horrified, and it turned out that the car had been involved in some form of impact, and not repaired properly. I was absolutely mortified that I'd paid £12,500 for a car which had been shunted and 'repaired' to a poor standard.

Its not exactly difficult to find being ...
Advantages: comfortable drivers seat Disadvantages: its an off the road Renault literally !!!! no engine
Hi
Having bought a 'quality' used Renault Laguna from a Renaultdealer with a 12 month Renault warranty, I was a bit surprised when after 1o months of use the engine seized, no problem I thought it'll be sorted out as its still with a warranty..
How wrong I was, despite the fact that I have looked after the car, depite the fact it was checked before I went on the journey despite the fact the I was driving in a proper manner and despite the fact that I am registered disbled and the car is also registered as being owned by a disabled person, predictably Renault didn't want to know
They tried to fob me off with lame excuses like ... the dealer was a Franchise garage, well the car was second hand, er we don't issue the warranties its a private company..well hang on Renault...... I bought the car froma reputable RenaultDealer, it ...
