700 miles in a Dacia Duster – A new car that doesn’t cost a fortune !

I did 700 miles in a week invested with the Duster, a brand new automobile that doesn't cost a fortune. The Duster range expense from ₤ 17,000 to ₤ 23,000 and the huge concern is … is it any excellent?

A long drive to Manchester should inform be whatever I need to know.

    Always fancied a Duster, I remember when they were less than £10k back in 2013/2014 ish… Great video so far mate 👌

    Somebody needs to start applauding “scratchy plastics”!

    Think the native satnav is TomTom(c) as Renault used it.

    Only thing that stopped me getting a brand new Sandero was the waiting time to get a new one. Test drove that and it was a brilliant little car. Duster looks even cooler with its utilitarian looks.

    I thought about the Duster as my wife needed a new car a couple of years ago. I ended up getting her a 2 year old Sportage instead as it cost about the same back then at £17000 with only 9500 miles on the clock. Difference was it had a better max loading weight, heated seats, heated steering wheel, auto lights and wipers, lots more safety features, much more space, AWD, way better build quality and still had 5 years warranty on it. Duster probably had better off Road capabilities but 99% of people will never need it. The AWD has been fine in the snow when I’ve locked it on but that’s a very rare occurrence to. The finance with her 6k Px car would’ve been £140 per month but I just paid outright instead

    Superb car had mine for 8 months now and cant fault it in anyway for the price. Looking forward to the new one and will be buying one when its released. Also the 4 wheel drive version only comes in a 1.5 Diesel version with a 6 speed manual. That version in Extreme trim will set you back near 26k but still good value compared to anything else this capable.

    I had a 72 plate Duster Extreme SE in Urban Grey with extras that I bought end of October 22 and traded it for a Puma ST Line X end of October 23 and I have to admit I really liked the Duster. In fact I had to have 2 test drives in the Puma to convince me to change. I’ll keep the Puma for the 3 years but seriously considering going for the new Duster then or perhaps the Bigster. I agree with Ped completely when he says it is really comfortable and a nice place to be plus the fact it has extra ground clearance. Really looking forward to the new Duster reviews and it would be great if you could do one to compare it to the current one.

    My sister has a 5 year old Duster had it from New. Now showing over 250k on the clock and it has never missed a beat. Great machine for everyday family use.❤

    Great video! My parents have recently bought a Dacia. They are both in their late 70s. Something that is rarely talked about, they have struggled with the tech in modern cars. The Dacia is very simple to operate and they love it. The ‘digital divide’ is a very real problem that is rarely addressed.

    Been waiting for this video Pete.
    The fact it is so cheap, yet it is a brand new car with a warranty, is remarkable.
    Yes it has a lot of flaws, but it’s not ‘terrible’ and for the super low price, you have to be realistic.
    Is it basic, yes, is it slow, yes, but is it worth the price, definitely yes.
    It’s side view camera’s are better than the none existent ones on my 66 plate M2 !!

    I bought a Dacia Duster Journey 9 months ago, after 22 years of various Audis. I love it! It has everything I need, no twiddly bits that I don’t, and moreover comes with things like 360 degree cameras, reversing camera, wireless Apple CarPlay (not sure why your test model didn’t have this!) extra USB sockets, hill start, cruise control, speed limiter … all things Audi charge an arm and a leg for. All included in the Duster. It drives nicely, turns on a sixpence, and has a great boot space for hay, horse feed and the occasional baby lamb. It bounces up farm tracks, is good off road and with a decent set of CrossClimate tyres on it, is also great on snow. It’s a bargain. Scratchy plastics? Yes. But who drives round scratching the plastic on their cars?

      Yeah, you forgot to mention adaptive suspension, and air springs as well, head up display and leather seats.

    On my 3rd Duster since 2014….4×4 then auto diesel and now the 72 plate Prestige….150bhp TCE is just great and your video was spot on. That said you missed the heated seats, Cameras all round and blind spot warning etc plus in Sat Nav mode it should bing if you creep over the limit and warn you about cameras as well….just good all round motoring👍

    All cars have scratchy pastic somewhere. Easy to clean. I’ve got a new duster 6 speed and I can’t fault it. No rattles pretty good for less than 20 grand for journey if you shop around

    Something I find all car reviewers complain about is “scratchy plastics”, it’s light weight, it’s better for fuel economy. I must admit, I’m quite partial to the Duster, the lack of tech is highly appealing to me and a manual gearbox is a must.

    Love the scratchy plastics as they wipe clean easy. No complaints about ours even got leather heated seats. 2019 prestige 150. Running boards plastic door and wheel arch protection.👌
