Greetings Dobloids,
I have joined the forum because my wife and I are seriously consideringa Doblo as a replacement for our 2001 Renault Kangoo 4x4.
The 1.4 petrol is our likely choice until such time as carmanufacturers sort out the DPF issue. Maybe 30K miles on an 07 plate orthereabouts. I am aware of the problems with the wiper boss, the rear doorcatch and the rear suspension bumpstops.
Are there any other regular early failures?
Is the 1.4 underpowered in 8v or 16v form?
Do they handle well in snow? (We will be giving up a 4x4.)
Is there a non-DPF diesel version?
My wife will be the main driver. Are lady Dobloids happy withthe vehicle?
Any advice gratefully accepted.
Thanks,
B.E
