Dacia Sandero
Dacia is preparing to enter this year the British market. If Dacia Logan was not considered the proper car for the british market, Dacia Sandero is expected to have a lot of fans in the UK. Dacia has not decided what engine will motorize the Sandero for the british market, but it seams that it will be the diesel engine because of it’s low pollution rate.
Dacia Sandero will be sold In UK through Renault dealers, in 30-50% of it’s showrooms in a special Dacia area. The latest information from the UK show that the Dacia Sandero price will start from 7000 pounds (9150 euros).

Having followed the progress of the Logan and been dissappointed not to see it in the UK, Dacia/Renault might have missed the optimum window for a low cost ‘no frills’ car. The competition is getting much harder every day in the low cost market. The newest entrant is the Hyundai i10, only a little smaller inside (seats 5 comfortably), as economical as the Renault diesel (58MPG) and a 119 CO2 figure. Plus, its fully equiped with air-con, PAS, 4 x electric windows, high-spec CD etc, and has a 5 year warranty. All for a price of 8400 euros.
Since the Logan launched in 2004, much has changed, and for 9150 Euros there is a lot of choice now. 9150 euros will also buy a 2-3 year old ‘quality’ car from Ford/GM, and even Renault etc. I will still look at the Sandero when I change my car next year, but it is no longer a ‘no-brainer’ as far as price/economy/comfort is concerned.
