I wouldn't change my 2017 prestige Duster for anything... Hasn't let me down in 5 years.❤

Had three dusters …never a problem ! all your “issues” were trivia …this is a great car

I've got a 2014 1.5 deci diesel. 50k miles. It's great. Absolutely bulletproof. Late 2014 so not made in India. Top tip if your duster doesnt have cruise control but does have a speed limiter. You can buy a dual switch that then "unlocks" cruise control for the car. They hid the feature behind a button that doesnt allow you to access it.

Thanks so much. I watch from Australia and I am coming home to Scotland to look after my elderly mother after 30 years away. Can’t wait to be home and this review is going to help me to buy a duster when I get home in May. Keep up the great work.

Rented a 2019 for 2 weeks in Morocco…absolutely loved it. Great mpg (diesel) acceleration, breaks, ground clearance…etc

I have a 2016 Duster 1.5L 4 wheel drive, absolutely love it.

Got a 2011 Duster 1.6 16V Lauréate still going strong. :D Love the car. It actually drives comfortable on long distances. I actually came from a 1991 Jag XJS V12. ^^

Great down-to-earth video with very thorough analysis. And I love the raw bits

8:03 you do not need to press that button to unlock the doors just open your door, it's to prevent people getting in your car from outside but doesn't need to be pressed to get out of the car for example a lone female feeling threatened can lock all the doors in an instant for safety...

I have a 2014 1.5 petrol 6 years on, tyres and brake pads , no issues , starts first time every time i love mine

[narkynorm]

2014 4x4, never been stuck, never broke down, blew a rear tailight bulb once.

Thanks for the nearly bought a new one....then....decided on a late Honda car...59 mpg average...and reliable. (I'm an ex mechanic and at 75yo had lots of cars where similar faults appeared on enough....cheers once again

I recently bought a 2013 1.5 diesel end of last year with just 52000 miles, drives like new. Has a bit of surface rust in placea but not enough for me to worry about for as long as I'll keep it! I love the car! The heater only working on 4 is a resistor failure that happens on any standard heater in any car. I deliberately wentbold because i didn't want it to be too nice.

I have been looking at these for a while, but have been put off by the fact that they use older Renault parts
wrapped in a thin weak body shell.
Now i know what to look for and think twice about buying one.
Thanks for a very useful video.

Watched video as a recent subscriber has these Dusters have really grown on me in a nice spec & nice colour they look great, can see me buying 1 at sometime a neighbour has a 23 plate don't know the model but looks fabulous in a dark metallic green with copper-bronze looking trim & wheels i do know it looks like a leather interior & is the 4x4. Can't see me changing my mrs car a 14 plate DS3 Dsport for 1 but definitely my 09 Cadillac BLS 1.9 CDti sorry Saab 93 .

[magoouk]

Had a 1.5 diesel for 3 years not a single problem and great on fuel

[Ddles]

What about the 2021 1.3 petrol any advise would be great. Great video as always 👏

[davidthomson]

Thanks useful for the older Dacia cars. I am considering buying a 2023 or 2024 version. Any comments on these would be very helpful.

[shannonsim]

Great vid!! & I’m not just saying that cause it’s my car! 😂x

[sounduser]
