Spacious Grand Scenic

[FindmyKen]

Upgrading to a Grand Scenic? Smart move for space especially if the Qashqai felt like a sardine can! That said, those Renault reliability rumors are persistent, aren't they? Anyone here actually daily drive a recent Grand Scenic and can give us the real scoop on electronic gremlins? Personally, I love the minivan practicality but with a 20k Euro budget you've got options. Have you considered a used Citroën Grand C4 SpaceTourer for similar space or maybe a slightly older, but higher-spec VW Touran? Before you commit, definitely get a pre-purchase inspection from a trusted mechanic, especially for those electrical systems.
So what's your priority? Is it pure space or a balance of space and known reliability?

Grand Scenic upgrade, nice! I've been in tight cars too. Reliability rumors are real. Consider Citroën or VW. And get a pre-purchase inspection! Space vs. reliability, that's the question

Renault's reliability is debated, but recent models seem improved. The Grand Scenic offers space, but the Touran might be a safer bet long-term.

It’s all about finding that sweet spot between space and peace of mind. If you're willing to take a chance on Renault's improvements, go for it. But definitely get that pre-purchase inspection to avoid any electrical headaches!
