Nothing.

General Comments:

Modern practical SUV. Surprisingly decent car.

The Kadjar, despite the silly name, is a fine car from Renault. I have almost nothing negative to say about it.

The thing is with these modern euro vehicles, if all you expect from them is basic transport, you cannot go wrong. No it isn't a cool sports car, or amazing to drive, but it does everything practically that any family needs.

Very spacious, comfortable and OK to drive. Good view of the road, well laid out interior.

Economical, even this petrol engine.

Brilliant if you just want a modern vehicle at a nice price.

Faults:

The car broke down - flat battery. Electronic "handbrake" also jammed on and the car had to be moved with the wheels dragging locked for a bit. Why can't they just give us a mechanical lever??!?!

There were a few more things but nothing serious. For clarity, this is a pool car I use a lot at work, but do not own, boss takes care of all the repairs, but I do know everything that is going on with it. He says it is average at best in reliability, and has been pretty expensive to repair.

General Comments:

Good points - it is OK to drive and pretty comfortable.

Bad points - everything else. I have drove many of these stupid crossover vehicles at work over the years; every one of them is either unreliable, stupid looking and dull, or both.

The Kadjar is no different. Ugly, boring, and I will never understand the appeal of these things. Looking at the used prices a 2016 Kadjar with low mileage still goes for near enough around £10,000, I could think of much better cars for the money. Would you pay 10K for a lump of modern trash? Neither would I.

Boss says he has a treat for us soon though, rumor has it it will be an Audi A4 and he is not buying this type of vehicle again. I do not even need to drive the Audi to know it will be automatically better (I had an Audi 80 back in the day and it was excellent), so cannot wait to see the back of this ugly thing!
