Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 13 years old and 179,728 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most Fluences in Europe use Renault’s 1.5 dCi-style diesel engines paired with a manual box — frugal and comfortable on long runs but fitted with a DPF and EGR that dislike lots of short, stop-start trips. Manual cars can show clutch and dual-mass flywheel wear with age, and turbo/intercooler hoses or DPF regeneration history are common points to check. Parts are widely available in Ireland and routine servicing is reasonably priced, but values on this model are low on resale.
- DPF behaviour and evidence of frequent regenerations or a history of DPF replacement/cleaning (especially if mostly town use).
- Turbo and intercooler hoses for oil residue, looseness or leaks and any turbo whistle under boost.
- Clutch engagement, slipping under load and signs of a failing dual-mass flywheel (rattle at idle / judder).
- Service history showing timing-belt/major service intervals where applicable (ask seller for paperwork).
- Underbody and rear-arch/boot-floor corrosion or patched repairs — check lower sills and suspension mounting points.
