I noticed more velocity for both cornering and acceleration with the lighter wheels I pruchassed later (I kept the 14" size, though). I have michelin Energy tyres (175/65/14). they're not that bad with this car and really sure when the macadam is wet. But I'd rather have tyres with a better grip on dry flo...more

Premium Review Renault 19: 19 (340 words)
by - written on 21/04/01 (Very useful, 553 readings)
Rating:

Way back in May 1997 I got a Renault 19 1989 F 1.7 GTX 3 door. It was in Renault Carmen Red. The roof was quite badly discoloured. This is quite a common problem on the 19 and on the 5. I paid £995 for it then with 112k miles on the clock. I had it for 18 months and sold it with 155k miles. The engine was one of the old pushrod type engine (OHV). The engine was as hard as nails - very reliable. It was quite heavy on petrol on urban driving. The good side to the 19 is it has quite a good interior. The handling was also good. It was quite fast for the type of engine it has because the 1.4 energy is just as quick. The OHV engine is an old ...  Read the complete review

I’ve owned my Renault 19 16v for two and a half years now – it’s been one of the most reliable cars I’ve ever owned up until now (which has been quite a few – several of which were much newer company cars). The equipment level for its age is very good indeed – digital trip computer showing average MPG, average speed, miles till the tank is empty etc, heated wing mirrors, electric windows, sunroof, wing mirrors, and fully adjustable seats (tilt/height etc). Personally I haven’t had too many problems with my car so far, just the usual things – brake discs etc – all age related items. The running costs ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Renault 19: 19-Style on a budget (283 words)
by - written on 27/12/00 (Very useful, 391 readings)

I bought a Renault 19 this year and was very pleased with it. It was a 1989 1.7 TXE 5speed. Although I paid £650 for it, it looked a lot newer than it was, and many commented on how smart it was. The performance was good, as was the road handling. As with most French cars, the ride is smooth and relaxing. I found the engine to be a little noisy at high speed, but in town it was quite acceptable. The engine sounds great with a distinctive roar from the exhaust when accelerating. Fuel consumption is not as good as it could be. Mine did 25 mpg,in town, and 35 mpg on a long journey. I have a friend who has a 19, and we both found our cars to have similar ...  Read the complete review

I've purchassed a Renault 19 TXE recently. the TXE is basically the same as teh GTX (1.7 petrol engine) but with an highest finition and more gadgets (electric windows, centralized opening command, adjusatble seats, climatisation, alloy wheels, etc) It was a 100 000 miles old red one. Paint was fading, but some products made it clear red again. I didn't have any problem with the engine, exept for the throttle which was partially obstrued by a too old petrol filter. i replaced the petrol filter and put some cleaning product in the tank, I solved the problem (acceleration with the two bodies of the throttle wasn't that reliable, which is a bit ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Renault 19 TSE (138 words)

I have had my J reg Renault 19 TSE for 3 and a half years. It has been a sturdy and mostly reliable car. I bought the car from an auction and have never regretted it. It has become a little worn around the edges in recent months, it is on its second engine, and lately the electrics have become troublesome. A full service a few months ago costing around £600 has given my 19 a new lease of life, and is carrying me to and from work with little trouble. Performance is adequate, handling is predictable (better now with new shocks). I do wish that the radio would be better, and the read window heater wouldn't blow fuses, but all in ...  Read the complete review
