It all depends what it is being compared too. I think some of the reviewers are forgetting where on the grand scale of things, and who, the dacia range is aimed at. It is not a top of the range Audi or Porsche, it is a sensibly priced new car that should give miles and miles of trouble free motoring to the mass market. I have a 2001 A6 and I notice my wife's 54 plate 206sw is noisier but that doesn't make the 206 a bad car to own or buy, it has done the job of ferrying my wife and wee girl about safely for about 4 years. Both cars have roof rails and I can't say I've ever had a prob with them, I'm not worried about the Stepway. Sure it might be a bit less refined but I'm sure 70mpg will help to accept a wee bit more noise.. I've never owned a new car before, and technically I'm still not owning a new car as the Stepway is for Louise, but I'm really excited about the prospect of getting a car that is factory fresh with the spec of the Stepway, we plumped for the laureate dci, MediaNav is fantastic, reversing sensors, cruise control, aircon, Lou is tickled pink. And it will arrive June/ July all going well. Nice time for picnics and family outings.
