Very pleased with the car and the excellent service from Bachelors of Otley, BUT, Why is there no 'Manual' wth the car, even an instruction book for the Sat.Nav would be useful. I would NOT buy another Dacia without an instruction booklet and details of how to use the sat. nav. The lack of service book etc. has spoilt my use of the car and had it not been for the service from the garage I would have exchanged it immediately and told everybody I know NOT TO BUY Dacia. It is a shame that I feel so strongly about Dacia service because it is quite a good value car and seems very good. You cannot be bothered to answer letters to help etc. so I do not have the confidence in the vehicle and on that basis I would hesitate to recommend Dacia to anybody

This is our 4th dacia sanderso stepway and whilst all have been different and each having different changes, I'm very surprised that you have still not upgraded wing mirrors to be electrical that when you park the wing mirrors close into the car automatically to avoid scratches from other vehicles and more space to open the car door. I have also found the pedals on this dacia have to be very high especially the brake and clutch. With certain shoes I have to balance my foot in the air which is most uncomfortable. I also think it would be a good idea to have the passenger seat having the function of being able to raise the seat higher just like the drivers seat.

Dacia Sandero. Small car that has enough umph for most if today's driving conditions. Quick off the mark at traffic lights, and comfortable at 70 mph on motorways. Economic on fuel. Comfy and nice looking interior with room for 4 adults. Boot is a tad smaller than my old Sandero but good enough for daily use. Exterior looks rival other small cars, I particularly like the new white logo on mt white car.
It's affordability is tops. I could buy it outright, so no expensive credit arrangements. Dacia dealership near me (Derby) is brilliant with super friendly staff.

As always a brilliant car, great driving experience and good fuel economy. The buttons I need are all in the right place. The road handling in the dry and wet is good. Snow causes problems.
If I have any niggles it's that there are too many buttons and switches that I will never use, Cruise control is not needed, Air con is not needed, it could do with an additional power point in the back. These are my thoughts and not necessarily what everyone else wants but if you can make one called the Sandero Paul I have other ideas as well :-)

Comfortable ride and plenty of room for a cheap vehicle. Some of the features are counter productive , like the lane assist which I find distracting and unnecessary, also the annoying noise when you drive very slightly over the speed limit. In fact you spend more time attending to the "helpful " features than concentrating on the driving.The centre armrest is too high. There could be a bit more useful storage within reach of the driver. Overall it is quite a good car.

Car fantastic. Renault very disappointing. When buying the car mislead me on servicing costs. Replacing the wing mirror £300. Wheel arch trim £90. Great car to buy and drive. cheap to run then the rip off begins. So called budget car expensive parts and servicing. Got rid of it for a cheap car I will service myself. Was thinking of getting a new duster but would not have anything to do with Renault or Dacia. Very disappointing.

I like the drive and the car only few problems handbrake when stopping does not always automatically come on need to watch it and problem.when on Hill or slop you can't get bite to go forward . I did go into garage to get checked there was definitely no bite to get it to go to drive just goes back and back and I am experienced driver. It is better since taking it in but feel let down that they would not admit there was problem !

Good price, Easy to drive, comfortable. Had 2 Stepways both have had problems. One 3 years old needed new clutch and flywheel. Second one had to be returned because it would not go into reverse if parked on a slope…. Despite other reports of this on Dacia forum neither garage or Dacia would acknowledge this was a problem. Even the mechanic at the garage could not get it to engage!
Would never buy another.

This is the second Stepway we have owned (the first one had untold electrical issues) and this one suffers problems with the throttle system leading to intermittent coughing and jerky response. The media system suffers interesting crashes if carplay devices are connected at the wrong moment. The overall build is fair, the price point was okay but it's definitely not a vehicle we'd rush to purchase again.

Radio stations can't tune them in even update. NO GLOVE BOX LIGHT!! No illumination to highlight automatic gearbox (drive, park, neutral, ) hard to get used to in darkness, aftercare service all DEPENDS ON IF THERE IS A COURTESY CAR, which doesn't suit my work pattern.
Funniest and cheapest complementary gift was of a hotel condiments, seriously ha ha ha ha
