Think you mean Dacia? Basically Renault hardwear but with less refinement to interiors which can be a bit plastic. We don't see many issues with
them. Good value gor money if you font need luxury.

Yes that what I meant
What are they like for reliability
Plastic is sometimes better with a dog for cleaning
I have seen all the web about them but would like to hear more about how good or bad they are + which engine model etc
Thanks Graham

I've known a few people with them and they really like them. However they did really bad in crash tests, I'm sure the duster got a zero at
one point. They look very cheap with so much plastic but you should be able to get a decent cheap second hand one. My family has a Suzuki Vitara which
is actually really well built (I service it), but it is full of cheap plastic and really is no bigger than your Astra inside despite the height. For
your purpose maybe a decent estate car might be better as they actually tend to be a lot bigger inside than most of the SUV's? This country is
not very good for proper station wagons, one thing that America beats us at. For luggage I just have a big roof box, dog sits in the boot.
