    I’m currently getting 1.7 mipkw so looking at a range of about 120-130 which is shocking. Good news is I pick the Renault up today and having read the forum this morning one lady was complaining about only getting 235 miles in this cold snap so that is good. Most seem to be in or around 220, and that’s the magic number for me in winter. With 270 in summer. I don’t care if a car claims a range of 500 miles as long as I get 220 and 270 I’ll be happy.

     

    That’s a shocking low figure you’re getting on the Pug, Des.

    Yes, 220 miles would do me, but as it is, I’m buggered. I have a trip from Dublin airport next month. That’s 125 miles from me. So, I will have to stop to top up to 80% north of Dublin first, so that I have some juice for the trip back, but then that won’t get me home, so I will have to stop again in Newry or Armagh for another top up! So that’s 2 charging stops just to do a 240 mile trip!

    I’m so disliking this car…

    Delighted that you’re changing from the nightmare you’ve had mate. Sincere hopes and best wishes that you get great joy out of the Scenic. Let us know how you are loving it! We need a good news story!
