Bought one while very tight on budget, been driving it for the past 5 years. Does the job, never failed once, didn't rust, spent next to nothing on diesel. I don't care if it doesn't warm up my buttocks, has no digital radio, or misses voice recognition. It's a reliable car that never failed us.

Don't care how much the Sandero costs. IMO it's one of the best looking affordable cars on the market. Those new headlights and the interior are absolotely spot-on. I love the suspension setup, love the seats, love the feel of the shifter, steering and the pedals. It's a joy to drive around a town or country roads. I already own a Duster which brings me absolute joy, but this (in Stepway trim) would be my #1 pick of the current market.

@@Godl1ked Product placement is the inclusion of, or a reference to, a product or service in return for payment or any consideration in kind. The taking of product placement for licence fee funded services is prohibited under the terms of the BBC Agreement. The BBC must not commission, produce or co-produce output for its licence fee funded services which contains product placement. All programmes made by the BBC or an independent producer for broadcast on BBC licence fee funded services must be free of product placement. If I understand this correctly, the early mentions of the sandero on BBC's Top Gear would have been product placement if it was paid for, which the BBC wont do and I haven't heard May mention any sponsorship from Dacia at any time nor do I think he needs the money. In conclusion, I believe the advertisement provided by May for the Sandero has indeed been free throughout the years. If you mean it's been paid for by some other means or under the table, please specify, though I would highly doubt any sort of under the table deal existing here considering he still speaks fondly of the car despite having cut his ties to the BBC.

Lovely part of the world. I lived there until my late teens and used to cycle past the pub to go fishing in the river at Chicksgrove. PS, the roads are poor, May might need to change the deep V bike wheels for 24mm alu rims. Less harsh on the pineal gland.

I did lots of research when considering a new Duster. It would appear that those bemoaning and running Dacia down have little or nothing to do with the cars. When you consult owners, you rarely if ever hear anyone complaining. In fact, an Honest John survey found Dacia the most popular after returning over 10,000 survey samples. Dacia was second behind Lexus in owner reliability experience, too. I've had my brand new Dacia Duster Bi-Fuel in Arizona orange (Prestige) for seven weeks. It costs £33 to fill 45 litres and returns 40mpg (400 miles out of the tank). It works out at 8p per mile. If I were to use the petrol more often, I'd be paying 20p per mile!!! I came from a C4 Cactus Hdi returning 65mpg... current fuel cost would be around 13p per mile for the Cactus. You do the economics... Best decision I've ever made in a car!! Check out my (very badly filmed) video below! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6Wkp2iehM5_d9E

They don't make profit on the cheapest version, however almost nobody buys that version. Most go for comfort because it gives the right amount of permium for little money.
@carloduroni56293 жыл бұрын
Most of the costs of producing a car is about designing the mechanicals and making them reliable. If you get available (Renault) parts, you already have spared this. Also, the basic model is just an "advertising model", i.e. it's just there to show a very low price but almost everybody will buy the medium-spec version whose price is a few K pounds more but costs very little more to build (mainly 'cause options and expecially electronic gadgetry are quite cheap to make).
