The RENAULT SCENIC (2003-09) 5DR MPV 1.4 16V 100 AUTHENTIQUE is a compact people carrier and practical alternative to a family hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it competes with small MPVs such as the Vauxhall Zafira and Citroën Xsara Picasso, its upright shape prioritising cabin space and easy access. The 1.4-litre petrol engine and Authentique trim suit errands, school runs and commuting. Best for small families or buyers wanting a higher seating position and flexible passenger space, it offers practicality rather than sporty performance. Its taller cabin and people-carrier layout distinguish it from conventional hatchbacks. mycarcheck.com has recorded 76 checks covering 61 different VINs; observed cars averaged 55,000 miles and 6,000 miles a year.
