Renault Scenic 1.5dCi 106 Dynamique Diesel Hatchback...

The Renault Scenic is a people carrier that manages to blend style and practicality together in one neat package. It's clever interior is its biggest asset and makes it an ideal family choice. There's generous room for passengers in the back, plenty of useful cubbyholes dotted around and some excellent safety features like Sleep Safe headrests which support the necks of youngsters.

It's a shame then that the rear seats do not fold flat like newer alternatives (such as the Citroen C4 Picasso). A Conquest version is available which boasts off road-inspired body cladding and increased ground clearance, but if you need more space then the Grand Scenic, which is larger and has seven seats, could be the answer.

It's the diesels which make the most sense in the Scenic, especially if you are covering long distances with a full load. The best choice for economy is the excellent 1.5dCi which will average around 55mpg. It's available in two outputs of either 86bhp or 106bhp. The other diesels are a 1.9-litre unit with 120bhp (130bhp on later models) which has plenty of pull from low revs or the range-topping and refined 2.0dCi with 150bhp - this propels the Scenic from 0-60mph in 9.4 seconds
