    I bought a Duster, new, in 2016 and I was prepared to 'forgive it' a lot considering the low price. Well...no need; it's been, and still is, really good. Two and a half years and 70, 000 km later nothing squeaks, nothing rattles, nothing's fallen off. The only thing that's failed is one headlight bulb; replaced at a cost of just €6.00 and replaced myself in less than 2 minutes.
    It's comfortable, the cruise control works, the (Renault) satnav is accurate and pop it into 6th and it's a very relaxed cruuser. Deals with potholes well too.
    I've had quite a few cars in my time, some so called 'prestige' brands, some so called 'reliable' brands - that haven't been - and as an overall package none is as good as this.
    Yes, tge interiir trim has a fair bit of hard pladtic but as I ssy...none of it rattles or squeaks, none of it's broken.
    It's incredibly kind on tyres too. An awful ot of tread left, frontband rear, on the Continental rubber fitted. Very economical too with the Renault 1.5 engine.
    I love this thing...an honest car, a Renault/Nissan in disguise.

    So I was loaned a Duster from a local dealer and drove it all day. Bonded with it quickly and found it to be very comfortable, well screwed together inside and very good at soaking up bumps and ruts. Around town and B roads engine (1.6 115) was just fine but struggled on long ascents even with cruise control on it just didn't have the torque to keep at speed. However car was much quieter than I expected and it drove respectably well, in fact I'd say it was refined and despite what another review said the stereo is excellent. On good inspection I noticed some shortcuts so good to mention them: Carpets more like felt, Front wings so thin and flexible could be pulled out of shape by hand. Metal inside rear arches also thin, paint inside door shuts not to same standard as exterior and close up inside wings (with door wide open) a few little lumps and bumps. Also drive shafts already orange with rust. Seen this on all Dacia dusters. BUT and a big but I actually really enjoyed my time with the new Duster, I even hit 90 MPH to see how it felt and it was just fine. The handling is perfectly good, it gripped well, didn't succumb to serious understeer (or body roll) and felt well balanced and nimble (thanks to the thin metal!). I swung it around familiar country roads and not once caused ASR to kick in. The brakes were strong, steering light (not awful either) and the turning circle was great. I returned back to the dealer really impressed. This is certainly way more car than what it needs to be for the price. I might buy one just for weekend camping trips!

      @mark-1rc502 6 лет назад +2

      It doesn’t stop another vehicle crashing into your car .
      Perhaps if your a fossils type that’s half asleep or poor reactions it could be a help, but in a city such as London people walk out in front of slow traffic all of the time and expect you to stop sometimes you need to be a bit pushy or you’ll be there all afternoon . Because once you stop people think
      Oh that’s very courteous of you I’ll cross as well and so it continues like a sheep crossing .

    • @DracoRemixer
      @DracoRemixer 6 лет назад +3

      Mark C 1. No, of course it doesn't stop another vehicle from hitting you, and that's why it's a vital part of Euro Ncap. Sure, passive protection is great and the most essential part, but if an accident can be prevented all together then that's the best option.
      2. Do you know how autonomous braking works? It's disabled at the lowest of speeds (~5 km/h), so "being pushy" with pedestrians isn't an issue, and if it does engage then it's called being reckless. If it's engaged by a pedestrian when travelling at higher speeds then it's basically too late for you to correct and you've just got lucky you don't have a persons life on your conscience. Autonomous braking isn't a smooth and pleasant experience, and the margins available are so small you're pretty much garantueed to hit that person without it. And, let's not forget that you can cancel out autonomous braking if by any chance it's about to engaged when it shouldn't. And one more thing, many of the autonomous systems don't offer pedestrian braking, so this may not even be an issue.

      Again I believe it was based around the Kadjar I haven’t really looked into the Dacia duster or the Kadjar as neither interest me , I was purely going by how I interpreted the woman reviewing the car.
      She kind of implied the only reason it scored low in crash test was because it didn’t have autonomous braking .

    Great review, which focuses on who the car is for and what it is worth to them, not people who will axe it on its badge alone.
    If you can look past the badge, this is (for a small/mid-size SUV) a very well designed car, it looks fresh and well balanced.
    It's a real shame that it isn't available with the TCe125 yet (it is on some other countries) , I think that engine completes the car as a very worthy alternative to its competitors.

    I wanted a Jeep Compass Latitude, it fit my budget, the winters are rough here in Chicago and I need 4 wheel drive. It has AC and heat.
    Do I care what people think....nope. It gets me where I need to be and that’s all that matters.

    I’m a fan of this 2018 Dacia duster I especially like the design of it look very good bought one last year predige model top of the line and I just adore if it has 40000 miles on it since I last bought it and had one thing wrong with it the air conditioning donst work but had it fixed by the dealer on warranty absolute gem to drive the cars tyres definitely give it the look with the desert orange paint just a shame donst have a 7 seater option other then that I just love it.

    Great and ideal for a beginner/new driver. No point buying astronomically expensive cars nowadays they loose ridiculous value the moment they leave the dealer and are on the road. My first car was a fiat panda sergio tacchinini. I loved that car, it was so reliable aaahh good times. 😊

    I have this model and is a nice car until we talking about that punch. Is a slow car which for a family car I should say is not to bad. The only bad point is when you need a extra power for an overtaking or going up on the hill, there you can see how slow is this car. Otherwise, I recommend this car. For that extra power, you can buy a chip to increase the power of the car with a few hp, is not too expensive and is easy to be fit. Maybe in the future car builders will understand the car needs power not just for speed but also to pull away from a traffic light/roundabout or even when you make an overtake.

      Michael Pitcher is called RaceChip and if is right it can boost your hp with an extra 30% there. So far I have not buy this chip so I can't tell you if is true or not.

Clearly I need to work harder at spending the rest while I still can 8-)=

      Not only the price, it is very widely used here in Bulgaria, because it is big and cheap, much cheaper than similar cars (similar by size). I know a lot of people driving it and it is excellent. The only problem is the safety... they will never fix it. When it is cheap, it is for a reason. (not always).

      Apparently the car sells well to rich toffs with a huge estate, farmers etc as it’s cheap and with 4x4 can go most places and it doesn’t matter if it gets scuffed here and there. Certainly beats paying 50k on a Land Rover and scuffing that and spending another couple grand fixing scrapes and stuff.
