Overall reliability

Awful. Terrible reliability, and very expensive parts

We bought this second hand and have had nothing but problems with it.

Clutch cost £1600 to have done. Radio screen doesn't work in temps over 16c, wing mirror motors don't work in temps under 19c. Brake discs initially quoted by garage to be £70 for a pair, but then they discovered they were ones with bearings in so would actually cost £300+!

Lots of little electrical problems, poor fuel economy. Electric handbrake which has frequent problems.

Lightbulbs are impossible to replace without going to a garage.

Oh, also absolutely terrible cabin storage: glove box barely fits a glove in, NOT A SINGLE USABLE CUP HOLDER!

The good: lots of space inside

This is the car that has made me finally swear never to by another French car again. Terrible design. They seem to prioritise bells and whistles (that malfunction) over reliability and repairability.
