My new Renault, traffic review after 18 months of driving

[@johnloran]

Thanks for the review - not many real reviews available. Have you got the fancy auto unlock feature that unlocks the doors automatically when you walk up to it? Just thinking this may be draining the battery. Ive got the nissan version on order. The equivalent Transit is 30-40% more expensive and they have the wet belt issue.

Every single modern vehicle has too many electrical things on them. For instance, I’ve been away for around eight days struggle to start. This is the normal key.

@PlumberOntheJob I've got the My24 version now and had it a couple of weeks. The Dpf regeneration still doesn't have the manual override so you can choose when to do a regen. It tells you on the trip computer when it's needed but you can't decide when to do it. Cheers 👍

So you wouldn't recommend buying one then.

Ha ha ha what’s the transit like that’s the question is it as bad or better These new vehicles seem to have issues

Transit is a much better van IMO, everyone flaps on about the wet cambelt in the Transit Customs, and yes a fair few of them have have let go prematurely but this seems to be due to poor maintenance missed oil changes etc. The security floors really let the Transit down. @@PlumberOntheJob
