Re: Renault Zoe
It's all well and good but batteries are inherently rubbish eventually.
Notice the report mentioned a Chevrolet 'Spark' electric car, not sure I'd want to hear that mentioned. Bit like selling an LPG car called the 'Hiss'

Re: Renault Zoe
I am fearing these fashion cars will become the norm in the past. I hate Minis with a passion but I love the Fiat 500. Toyota IQ is OK but prefer the Aygo. And now there's flipping "Adam" from Opel and now... Zoe? What next? Citroen Steve?

Re: Renault Zoe
It's still JUST a Renault though 
It's bad enough we see these disasters out on the roads let alone on the PEUGEOT forum
I can't believe I have just written that dreaded R word, let alone read and SEEN further pictures of that have made me want to scratch my flippin' eyes out.

Re: Renault Zoe
Seems an acceptable enough wee car, but i prefer the plain saloon styling of the fluence which is also available as an electric car.
On the subject of the electric car here is a good documentary about them:

Re: Renault Zoe
Its not just their cars, we have 3 renault tractors and the earthing points on all 3 have give trouble, proper comical stuff like wipers turning on with the indicators, the high beam lights on the roof turns off all the other electrics.
Although renault tractors are a lot lot better made than their cars.

Do you know what, after all the gip people give ''french cars'' I still buy them and still adore them...... I think I am always going to own a Peugeot, I am dedicated to the brand and despite the MINOR hick ups with Peugeot, I rather minor hick ups than big full blown problems with other car brands...steve_earwig wrote:It's almost as though no other car manufacturer has any electrical issues at all(Check any other car forum for details...)

Re: Renault Zoe
Yeah, Peugeots are fine. I've been driving for 15 years now (oh....) and owned Peugeots for 9 of them. The next car is likely to be the 407 but undecided yet.
