Overall reliability

Competent and reliable.

144k at the moment. only real issues bit heavy on the front tyres, thoiugh I tend to use budget Avons. Lived in Milton Keynes, now rural Suffolk, so need more ground clearance. looking to repreplace with a Qashqai, Renault owned.
like most people, lax with the aircon servicing. not aware for some years that you specifically had to ask for it to be done. Now the fan is not working. Time to trade in. All said and done, it has been a reliable workhorse. Still drives well. comfortable, good motorway cruising, keep to the limits and you can't go wrong. never any seriouse let downs, a few battery issues, and the earth clamp/lead corroded, but Green Flag sorted that out 4 years ago, no issues since. A rear bearing was the last advisory, at 136k, £47 parrt and labour, not bad thats it. Tester said the bodywork nor the way the car drives (serviced at same time) reflect the high milage.
Won't set the world alight, niether will it drop you in the fire.
