Renault Kangoo 1.4 RXE 1999

I have had this car a few months now and it is fantastic, it suits me perfectly as I can use it as a van with the seats down or as a car. My model has all of the extras:- a/c, remote c/l, e/w, etc. It is great on fuel, comfortable and very spacious. The only thing I have had go wrong is temperamental electric windows, I think it has a short in the drivers side door, when I bang it, it works again! I had the basic model Renault Kangoo 1.9 turbo diesel a few years ago and it was great as well. I would definitely recommend it if you need a roomy car.

Renault Kangoo 1.5 dci 86hp 2007

Bought the Kangoo new in August 2007. I drive a 60 mile commute every day and have 26000 miles on the clock. 2 services and nothing but filter and oil changes so far. The engine has so much torque that passing on a country lane is confident and trouble free. Tight corners at speed make you a bit seasick as it wallows a lot so slow down as its not a sports car. Side-winds hardly bother the car, a fact which seems strange considering its height. I’ve driven it on Hungarian motorways at 90mph for hours without feeling insecure in a heavy side-wind (a Honda Accord I owned was much more sensitive, a 69 Volkswagen van used to put me in the other lane.) Since I’ve owned it I have averaged @50mpg and my small son loves the space in the back. Modern vehicles tend to be very claustrophobic but this is such a bright happy car with lots of room for a small family on long trips. The headlights are the best I have ever driven with in a car. Very good spread and length on low beam, extreme distance on high. The brakes are a bit spongy and loud first thing in the morning, but so far this is the only fault I have found in the car.

Renault Kangoo tetra 2003

I bought this just over a year ago and must admit I have been pleased. That is until I took it for it’s MOT and service. £1142 all told and that is without the 2 tyres I needed. Collapsed shaft bearings, brake disc and drive belt on a car I had owned for less than a year and have never driven off road (it’s a 4x4). It only has 35000 miles on the clock. So, boo to Renault and their chocolate car parts.

Renault Kangoo 1.9 dCi Trekka 2005

We’ve just bought this used Kangoo and are absolutely thrilled with it. It’s very easy to drive and is like a tardis when it comes to space. Perfect for a family of 4 with dogs, bikes, buggy etc.

Renault Kangoo 2007

We have a Renault Kangoo under the Motability scheme, it is a 1.6 automatic with a drop floor to allow wheelchair access from a company called "Constables" and the conversion and the car is excellent for its use as a wheelchair carrying vehicle. Very good on petrol and is reliable in every aspect of motoring, well done Constables and Renault. Power steering and air con are both very good along with the open vision from the driving point of view, have not found any blind spots at the moment so this car for my use is a terrific little car, the wife Brenda also likes the car and has no problem or regrets in getting it.

Renault Kangoo 2001

The Renault Kangoo is a good Muti-Purpose Car. It is very good at towing as you can not even feel yourself towing a trailer. The Kangoo just cruises along very smoothly along the roads and motorways. The car it self is very comfortable, you can fit 5 full adults in the car without feeling uncomfy, you have the luxury of air-con which cars down the Kangoo very quick in just under 2mins. The car also benifits tall people as it has a very large space for headroom. The driving position is perfect for any driver as it is high up above standard cars. You have got a huge plastic based boot for transporting big loads i.e. large dogs (enough room for our Airedale Terrier & Westie to lay flat out). In the back you have loads of leg room. The rear seats fold up to the front seats so you have doubled the boot space like a mini van, it has tie down d-rings in the boot floor, the boot floor is all plastic. The plastic floor has lots of benifits i.e. going to the dump, transporting dirty loads as it just wipes clean very easy. We have never had any problems with our Kangoo. We have nothing bad to say about it because it is perfect in every way.
