There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more...0

It instils faith that firstly their cars are still going after so many years (when did you last see Renault/Peugeot vehicles of that age on the road?) and secondly that they care enough about customers' safety to take the PR hit and issue a voluntary recall. The same applies to Honda and Toyota who recently issued recalls for "old" vehicles.
As we know from BBC Watchdog, Renault (as an example) actively tried to cover up the fact that that Clio bonnets were springing open and smashing through windscreens while customers were driving at motorway speeds.
Only after they had sacked an employee for raising concerns within the company (because Renault cares about safety
) did that employee speak to Watchdog and thus catalyse a recall. And yet people still buy Renaults...
My daughter has my old 2004 Clio she's had no problems with it. My sister in law also has a R reg clio which is still going strong. Probably down to looking after it.0 -
