The plastic bumpers all round are a great idea, i no longer hve to worry about trollys, my kids or car doors.

In that time this car has been great to drive; and practical for a number of things like camping, parties, moving and anything i could throw at it. The ride is smooth and quiet and it is a pleasure to drive. Also, it doesn't look outdated at all, in fact i think it looks better on the road than a lot of other compact 4x4s models made to date.

Report this review This car has echoes of the brilliant Renault 16 in terms of seating flexibility, clever design and comfort. It's almost impossible to skid and traction is amazing in sand, gravel, mud and snow. Our daughter has a large trike to ride - I pull out two rear seats and it fits in perfectly leaving three seats intact. I stick my own bike on a simple rack over the spare wheel.

Report this review All-in-all this Renault RX4 is the best vehicle I have ever owned and is a near-perfect blend of a sport utility vehicle and a family estate/wagon. I bought it used and thus avoided the reportedly-high initial cost. While it is not designed for heavy off-roading, it has never failed me in cautiously-navigated snow or mud. I can confidently take this vehicle in any weather that Latvia can throw at it though I didn't test the -27C temperatures last winter. I appreciate that it has a normal key an ...

We previously owned a normal scenic and the RX4 provided the same spacious and practical package for family motoring. Ok, the bad stuff. We bought ours secondhand and this I suspect is where caution pays.

Being an owner of 2 Renault vehicles, I can say that the Renault RX4 1.9DCi is definitely a choice for the conscious and safe driver of our times. This car thinks for itself whether you drive on or offroad. I even pulled a Landrover TD5 out of a mud patch I just went through and I have it on video.

Report this review Generally I regret buying this Renault RX4 1.9DCi 4x4. It is not a good car to drive. It always seems like it is struggling. It is particularly bad on motorways. It struggles to return 34mpg(diesel 1.9dci)and is very noisey. Most of these cars will never go off road so why is the gear ratio so awful for road use. The front window demisters are terrible.

Report this review After looking at car markets for some time just trying to find the model we wanted was a task as the Renault RX4 1.9DCi 4x4s are very much sought after. We finaly bought a used model from a dealership and once bought we loved it. Its driving position is unsurpassed and the room and extras that came with it are second to none. We have recently been going off road and it has coped with everthing its had thrown at it. Its also not bad on fuel considering its imense size.

To explain: there's a short stretch of fairly steep gravel road leading to my house and those of my immediate neighbours. What with one thing and another - people going to and from work, post vans delivering the mail - there are maybe thirty or so journeys up and down this road each day. Visible ruts are rare, but all those wheels soften up lines on either side of the centre. When the monsoons come, the looser gravel is washed down the hill, and the road turns into an assault course. On this particular occasion I was glad to be driving a Renault Scenic RX4. I was glad again a couple of days later when several tons of new gravel were deposited on the drive about two minutes before I had to leave home. If I had been driving a normal saloon car I would have been stuck, but with the RX4 I was able to cross over them, to appreciative cheers from the guys with the shovels. But that was where the gladness stopped. Although I do not form part of the target audience for the Scenic in any of its forms, I can quite see why the mini-MPV version, and the various rivals which have sprung up like mushrooms since its launch, are such a hit with their customers. It was a brilliant piece of work by Renault to identify this possible new market, convert the Megane hatchback into something excellently suited to it, and then sell it in such phenomenal numbers. Is There A place For This One?  Whether or not there is, as Renault believes, another new market for cars which combine the features of a mini-MPV and a "lifestyle" off-roader from the Honda CR-V/Toyota RAV-4 school is something that will become apparent over the next couple of years; it's too early to say right now. But I do not believe that Renault's execution of the concept, in the form of the Scenic-on-stilts RX4, has been at all well done. That became clear within yards of driving the car. Its huge ground clearance has compromised the Scenic's stability to the point where I felt as if I was sitting on a giraffe balanced on a beach ball. There is little question of the RX4 ever being driven quickly - it's just not that kind of machine, though its two-litre engine gives it quite reasonable straight-line performance - but even at gentle cornering speeds I could imagine that in an emergency situation it could easily fall over (I wonder if a certain Scandinavian magazine has performed the infamous "Elk test" on this car yet, and, if so, exactly what happened when they did). Most of the science of suspension set-up is concerned with weight transfer. The less you have of this the better, but the RX4 comes with oodles of it as a standard feature, hence the uncomfortable feeling on corners. Weight transfer can also be bad news under braking, and I don't fancy the idea of having to do an emergency stop in this thing. All the usual Scenic practicality is in evidence, and the RX4 can certainly tackle ground which would force its less adventurous stablemates to a standstill. But it's too much of a compromise, perhaps because it is now one development too far from the Megane on which it is loosely based. A four-wheel-drive Scenic with a more modest increase in ground clearance would probably do everything that an RX4 owner would realistically require of it, while remaining safer and more stable on tarmac. As it is, though, I reckon Renault has overstretched itself. This is a car which needed a bit more careful thought in the early planning stages. Price: £18,400 Capacity: 1998cc Power: 140bhp Maximum speed: 109mph 0-62mph: 12.3 seconds Economy: 34.4mpg extra urban, 29.7mpg combined Insurance: Group 10 Renault figures. Second opinion: From a styling point of view, what I didn't much like about the RX4 was the rear-end bulge covering the spare wheel which, unlike its two-wheel drive counterparts, the four-wheel drive model can't accommodate inside. Otherwise - agreed - all the usual Scenic practicality is there, from the ingenious stowage areas to the remarkably versatile seating. I thought the RX4's extra weight affected its performance at places like the long drag up to Shap Summit, but that is not this car's natural habitat. It's intended for a specific and quite tiny niche market. I know people who are moving to a remote house in the hills, in an area where the winters are often quite harsh, and their farm-track approach is going to be rough from January to December. They mulled over their transport requirements and decided on an RX4. It's a special-situation car, and I think it'll do them fine. Admittedly, as long as they resist the temptation to tackle the winding farm track like a special stage. Ross Finlay.
