Help Please

We are planning to buy one of these automatic cars. Do you know of any issues with Renault Clio 1.2 Expression Q S5 or Peugeot 206 1.4 LX ?

Yes.

Automatic Gearboxes + French Cars = Can of worms.

In a word, DON'T!

Avoid at all cost any Renault Autos!

The PSA auto's are more reliable, but not infallable.

If you must have an auto, a Micra NCVT is passable.

The only worthwhile buys are the Yaris or better still Honda Jazz 7CVT which are both *FAR* infront of the French Merdes Automatique.

The message from "John Smith" contains these words:

Don't. If the gearbox doesn't die on you, the sunroof will.

That CarGiant place seems rather expensive. There's an auto Clio here for the same money, lower mileage, higher spec...

Tim.. ( snipped-for-privacy@btinternet.com) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

PSA have always used ZF autoboxes.
