    You're right, silly question really isnt it? lol, I will write to them today :) I'm getting good at this, phoned Telewest to upgrade package for no extra cost, reclaiming bank charges from Lloyds and now complaining to Renault. I'm not usually this proactive but I'm fed up of shelling out unnecessarily! :)

    wish I hadn't looked at this

    Bought a SH Laguna a year ago - no problems (yet), thankfully. Worried as heck now, mind
    :dance:There's a real buzz about the neighbourhood :dance:

    Hopefully we havent jinxed you TNG. We had an R reg VW Passat before the Laguna, I'd much rather have that car back :(

    can you explain how this index works as on first glance renault must be better than either bmw or audi. so which is it?

    The lower the number the better.
    Reliabilty Index

    The Reliability index takes into account all factors of a repair, the cost of the parts and the frequency of failures - Average is 112 which means that if the figure for the car you are looking at has a higher than average index (118) the indication is that that car is less reliable than the average, if however there is a lower than average index (60) the reliability is better. Separately to this figure you can also look at the average cost of repairs for a particular make or model, a car with a poor good index and a high average cost (£500) would imply that the frequency of failure is low however when it does fail the bill will be a lot more than the average.

    For example

    Toyota - With the high average cost of repair and quite a good index rating - Which means that the car fails infrequently but when it does then you will be in for a a larger than average bill, however overall Toyota is a very strong make of car to buy.
