I bought one a couple of months ago and love it!! Amazing car, lovely to drive, cheap to run and has loads of kit. Whats not to love??

These are the Clio-class estates (station wagon) nowadays, like the Peugeot 2008 is what 207 SW used to be. The biggest point in these are that you sit up higher and the visibility is therefore a little bit better, especially appreciated in city-driving. The gear ratios are also aimed at city-driving more than motorway. The looks are also that what people want nowadays and car manufacturers aim to do that, namely sell cars. :)

Test drove one and liked it immensely (looking to replace a first-gen Scenic, and the Captur is almost exactly the same size). Big problem is that there is a 20 week lead-time for delivery, which is quite unacceptable for a plain Renault

What I am surprised about most is how in LHD its only unique selling point is a glovebox

~ Had a look at and sit in one. It's a fabulous car. No Road Tax to pay on the 1.5 diesel version. Brilliant! I want one .. :-)

Hmmm! Now that looks like a very interesting family car to me.

The rear looks like a Mazda CX-5.Of course cause Mazda and Renault share styling cues

I did watch it actually niceboy60 so calm down son, but when you have the new Scenic XMOD with the same toys for going 'slightly off road' it makes no sense.

[JivagoVali]

doesn't it look a lot like the Dacia Sandero?

Jon Mower, did they cut his hair with a lawn mower?

[burso]

Well, obviously regardless of the shape of your head, there isn't a lot in it. Please refrain from making any comments if you can't spell :D

Not all capturs have the touch screen i know that.cuz mine doesnt i dont like the touch anyways so idc

[stephen.]

the design is good , BUT why do you use plastic low level inside this good car ? renault can make a good dash board with very good plastic ( and it s not renault but another company specialist for dashboard ) so why don t you put it ? it s a waste of work , poeple will not like it .

[JohnDoe-jjoi]

i like exterior design, but inside its ugly. i dont like the centre console...

[niceboy]

Scenic with make-up on ?
.
Did you actually watch this video ?
This is not a MPV nor even is trying to compete with one

I hate Renault designers. They are making cars look like something it would belong to a kitchen. That headlights, grill, bumper, looks so cheap and ''plastic''. You can't call this car beautiful.

Those European pseudo-SUVs look like toys,

2:55 Qashqai is too big...that hopeless excuse of a car, the Nissan Qashqai is a little cramped ugly hatchback and all in all is just about 10% bigger than a Captur. At least the Renault looks nice and is more honest saying about itself that is just a supermini with some ground clearance.

[ImHereToAnnoyYou]

No I don't like it at all. It seems pointless.
