Anyone own a Renault Wind?

[Spug]

Bought one today for the wife and I have a bad feeling about it. Seems solid enough but we have had French cars before and have hated them?

Are they ok reliability wise and to get parts for a reasonable price?

Look at me, just bought a new car, pathetic.

We had a 2002 Renault Clio, never had a problem with it. Passed it onto the brother in law, has 130k on it now and it's still going strong, only a 1.2 as well.

Absolute fucking scratters car. Only topped by a blue Subaru Impreza. You might as well shout 'We have only ever holidayed on the Costas'

Champion. I think it looks canny and I'm not normally into modern cars.

I'd never heard of the fuckers till last night

I toyed with the idea of buying one a few months ago but decided against it.
Was through Stanhope today & saw a black one with black alloys, parked up. They are as rare as rocky horse manure so it's always surprising to see one.
Crap name as well they might as well have called it the Renault-Fart.

I have seen a few on the roads, look alright.

Nissan half owns Renault as well, so they share some parts, engines etc.

They only make them for abroad now.

Impressed with the boot like. The roof sits on top of the boot rather than folding in and has loads of space for your shit

She liked it and gave the ok for me to buy something I've had my eye on as a compromise

It's hers anyway.
