I can confirm this is true.lol

I married my local mechanic 👩‍🔧 due to the constant visits we fell head over heals ( he is still repairing the car ) lol

[@warglow]

So bad? Whats the main issues? And what engine do you have?

[@thomaspowell3739]

G Man petrol 1.6.....but I never liked it, BMW maybe a bit of a hazzle, but better drive and dynamics

[@warglow]

Thanks for your answer! But what were the main issues? I have 1.9 dci engine and i heard its infamous, although car is smooth and very comfortable.

[@thomaspowell3739]

G Man gearbox jumping, and electrics, but road noise is really awful on the motorways

[@warglow]

Yes same here with road noise, but gearbox works smoothly. Only thing i am worried about is turbo - it whistles and jerks off oil. Previously i had mazda 323f 1996 1.8 16v - small sporty car, i loved it, but rust..... its awful. Renault is much more comfortable, only thing is that it has some issues which might be repaired for a lot of money. About electrics i cant say nothing,because they work.Mazda was cheap and easy to repair.
