There is a pdf online of accessories available to purchase for the Jogger, interior stuff, phone charger, roof boxes etc. There are no prices and I can't find price lists for their other cars either. Does anyone know where this can be found?
I'm interested in a tow bar and the 3 bike carrier.
The swan neck towbar and 13 pin electrics are approx £340 as an accessory plus fitting. It's cheaper to order the car with a towbar, which is fitted at the U.K distribution centre. Think it's just over £400 fitted.
The problem with the Import Centre fitment items is that the car has to be registered first, so, depending on dealer, you will need to pay for it before it's registered and then towbars etc fitted.

Wow, every order we have taken has been matched up quickly to a build slot, something doesn't sound right.

I'll speak to the dealer, I didn't know if we would hear direct from Dacia or them.
I wonder if it hasn't been built yet or allocated a spot will we have the new facelift too

Does anyone have any insight into the hybrid? Interested to know when it will be appearing and what the price bump will be. Looking at the Clio on the Renault website the difference between base spec engine and hybrid is £2.5k
I may be tempted to delay my order if it is not too far into next year.

My car is arriving in the country tomorrow, should be available for collection by end of September.

Still no word on when tow bar will be available.

I'm sort of in 2 minds about cashing in, it was a 'nice to have, just in case' car when ordering back in feb but a lots happened in the world since then and that £230 will soon be a weeks energy bill.

I've seen one in Italy this week. The 'face' has a lot of presence and oozes cool.



Can I really say that about a Dacia?

Am I allowed?


Sadly I can't see Renault keeping the brand cheap. Its evolving.

Nope.

Waiting to see how much the new Duster will be. Wouldn't surprise me if only the basic spec dips under 20k.

Are these cars selling above list second hand though? I have seen a few brand new Sandero Stepways that have been for sale for months, that have lowered the prices to the point where they are below list now.

I had a Stepway on order and like you I didn't really need it and ordered it using man maths, In the cold light of day I realised I didn't really want the car or the monthly expense so I cancelled it. The dealer was not too happy as it was arriving in the UK a couple of days later, but I got my deposit back.

You might take a hit on the car if you collect it and decide to get rid of it soon after. Don't go assuming that they are in such high demand that you will immediately make £1K profit if you sell.

Here is a Jogger Comfort in Silver with 355 miles on the clock at a main dealer for £16995

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202208138...

List price for that car with metallic paint is £18,500, We Buy Any Car are offering £13,180 for it.

My advice is if you are in any doubt you won't be keeping it for long is to cancel the order now.

its a bit like Skoda when the Yeti came out. Saw an orange Jogger in Wales, definitely top of my list for my next family car. The latest top end Dusters definitely look like they are trying to appeal to style conscious buyers, and the new branding is a nod in that direction too.

No idea tbh, there's a couple of extreme SE joggers in metallic you can drive home today for circa £20k so £1500 more than I've paid, whether people are paying these prices I don't know. Maybe I'll keep it and sell either the caravan or mr2 next spring instead.

This first one has been listed for months

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202205175...

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202208128...

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202207308...

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202208048...

This one is available next month, if you look on Autotrader there are several available for August/September

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202207197...

Here are some brand new Jogger Essentials available for list price

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202206066...

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202207027...

Jogger Comfort for list

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202207027...

If you think you will be able to sell that car for a profit I think you are going to be very disappointed. If they are selling for list, then you are going to lose thousands if you sell it.

Carwow review showing effect on acceleration, mpg and braking with 7 people and ballast.

I'm really impressed, especially the brake test!

I'm impressed with all of that really, you need to consider its effectively a 'stretched Clio estate' with a tiny little frugal engine. All that extra weight would change the characteristics of most average powered family cars. The Jogger benefits from from a pretty low kerb weight, so it did pretty well, especially the stopping. I'm still pretty keen on one, wonder when the details on the lifestyle camper will get released.

Mines arrived at the dealer, he rang excitedly to say I can come collect it.

Don't think he was expecting the response 'oh, I'm a bit busy this weekend, can I ring you in the week?' 😂

Saw one on the road for the first time today. In silver (groan). This was in Reading, anyone on here maybe?

Looked very good though, and I'm still half thinking about getting one when the hybrids with auto gearboxes are offered in the UK. Still seems value for money, despite the recent price hikes.
