Do you think it worth to buy renault van? or buy car better?
if for van,auto or manual better?
i know many pple would say manual better.But if to compare van (auto version 1.4litre )
with car ( auto version 1.3 litre,ie; hyundai ),
do u think it better to buy van?
pls give comments. ( use for work & leisure ) -
I have one car (toyota) and one van (renault).
The Van is 1.4A Kangoo. It is a good van for work & leisure, especially this is a auto petrol version. So far so good, going to two years.
It depends on yours need. Van is much cheaper, now should be around $35K-$36K. But pls note the "speed limit of 50 km/hr" and the "noise when exceed the speed limit".........and the resale value. -
but what is your monthly petrol cost?
is the car give any problems? -
My family owns a Renault Kangoo but I'm not the one driving it thus can't really say much, but rumours are that there's a timing belt problem with this car. Oh btw, we encounter problem for battery before as well, consider the van is less than 2 yrs old.
From what I know, the citron belingo is a better car, maybe you can check it out. -
Sorry, I did not monitor the petrol consumption.
This Van does not give me any problem at all.
I personally test-drive the Kangoo, Berlingo & other vans before I bought Kangoo.
Agreed, you shld go for test-drive, feel it then decide.
Kangoo 1.4A Petrol is more powerful (efficient) and smooth driving. May be, because it is petrol version and auto gear. -
Renault engine are very problematic after 1-2 years down the road.. its not worth to spend on such lousy car.. there are lots of choice try Kai or Hyundai for cheaper alternatives...Originally posted by aj_2009:Do you think it worth to buy renault van? or buy car better?

i bet your pardon... what prove do you have about this comment of yours? Renault produce one of the best engine the world can provide. Although not to smooth but the torque is high. Mine had run under high rev consistently for 3 years and it is still serving me very well. No major overhaul, only normal maintenance and servicing. If Renault car is lousy, i donno where to place Kia and Hyundai...and i donno why the new Renault Megane is collecting awards from all around the world including the Renault Trafic van.Originally posted by bjork:Renault engine are very problematic after 1-2 years down the road.. its not worth to spend on such lousy car.. there are lots of choice try Kai or Hyundai for cheaper alternatives...
Ever saw a Kia getting any awards? How about Hyundai?

Hi all,
everyone has their own comments, and feel abt each different cars. So let's not get so angry over some1's comment. I mean, to some Korea car are good but to some, they are not.
Me for instances, won't get a Renault or Korea car is there's a chance. In fact, I would rather go for brand like Suzuki or even Daihatsu if budget is low. Or, thailand assemble Jap cars like City & Vios.
But the botomline is, more important is that you like your own ride, that's all. Cheers~! -
Renault car is not lousy its engine is.. Its not abt awards... if u wanna talk abt awards, many other cars have many other rewards.. just by looking on the road.. why aint there much renault cars/ vans or watever.. Kia & hyundai is definitely better if it offend u i will say its my own experience then...Originally posted by Goodeal:i bet your pardon... what prove do you have about this comment of yours?

Just debating...and what is so lousy about the engine?Originally posted by bjork:Renault car is not lousy its engine is..

care to explain?
i would say yes, it is not smooth.
so is mitsubishi engine.
there are tons of kangoo outside the street, not to mention scenic and clio.
megane is much rarer, as the fuel consumption is high compare to its class.
the car is not cheap either comparing a corolla 70+k to megane 80+k.
i am not saying the megane is the best car...i would say it doens fit the price.
but u cannot deny that megane is getting more and more popular on the street compare to 3 yrs ago when i got mine. -
hmm agree ... renault ... its the engine good...
but down side is the gearbox....

so far ive heard of many problems with renault...but that doesn't mean that the car is not good also...every car has it's prob...but for me if i were to choose a saloon car, iwould buy toyota...it's good try it....
