    Mrs FSM got a Renaut Scienic for just over £6K.

    Loads of room, lots of hidden storage space. Electric everything.

    Good car for 2/3 kids + Dog

        What Car are usually on the money.However, Family cars are depreciating fast, as most are also favoured as fleet cars. You could have something almost new and bland, or something favoured that is 3 or 4 yrs old

        What is a family car though? Are you talking a traditional saloon/hatch or an MPV or a Scenic type car?
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          Either saloon or smaller Scenic type, not MPV.

            Renault Scenic - don't do it

            Ours (05 Scenic II) is the biggest heap of tulip I've ever had the misfortune to own. Electric failures all the time, warning light, engine management faults etc.

            Dealer is completely unable to fix any of it, claims its "just a computer glitch". Its been in so often I've lost count. And I hear the same stories from lots of other owners too.

            Seriously, steer well clear.
