Greetings; was pointed here by someone on the Renault forums (UK).
I've had a Scenic dTi since 1998 when I bought it new (passed over to the wife to drive in 2003) and due to the onset of rust around both rear wheel arches, plus the vehicle approaching 90,000 miles felt it was time for a change. Like to have something a bit different, so test drove the Captur based largely on Renault UK's adverts for cheap finance and low monthly payments.
To cut a long story short, autos are excluded from the deal and I now have a Captur on order, but the wait is 20 weeks!!! I'd expect that from a Porsche, top M-B or BMW, but from Renault? I had to wait long enough for the Scenis in 1998, haven't Renault done anything to improved delivery delays in 16 years?
So, roll on late July ! Captur dCi EDC MediaNav in Tahoe blue with white roof, protection pack (parking sensors F&R and alarm) and space-saver spare. I've taken out finance to pay for it (I'll be 6 payments in before it even arrives!) and at a significant saving on list price.
How long are others waiting for a factory order?
