Do you recommend the Dacia Sandero?

I am interested in buying a Dacia Sandero as they seem very, very good value. Do you rate them for someone who only does 5000 to 6000 miles a year as a good investment please? Why are they so cheap? Any catch?

There's no catch. The £5995 Access model is very stripped out and very basic with no radio, no electric windows, no a/c and no spare wheel. It's probably better to go up to the £7395 Ambience TCe 90 - still no a/c, but more creature comforts. There are quite long delivery dates as all Dacias for the UK are built to order in India. 5-year warranties come on all Dacias, which begs the question why does every manufacturer not offer this?
