I keep seeing more and more of these cars about, every day. They seem very good value for money.

First of all....why "Stepway" ? It seems to mean nothing !

Also, are any of these owned by AB'ers, and what has your experience been so far ?

Mrs B is thinking about a new car, I just pulled up the Autoexpress review of the Stepway, passed her the ipad and asked her, "How about one of these?"
In a minute or two, when she stops laughing, I'll help her up of the floor and back onto the settee where she was before seeing it.
"I keep seeing more and more of these cars about, every day."

Not to burst your bubble, Mikey, but it could be the same few neighbours going about their day. I'd write down the registration numbers as a double check before making sweeping statements. ;-p

Anyway, Colt Starion, Kia C'eed, Toyota Camry, plenty of odd names out there.
To be serious though, it's actually safety advice for consumers as in "Stepaway from the vehicle"

Now she's calmed down she says she would only sit in one if one of these was an accessory

My wife had the first Sandero in our region. It was brilliant and s a result my son and his Mrs are leasing a Stepway each. All have been fault free and are great motorcars.
You wont go wrong with onee.
In Turkey and Morroco whewre I have been recently they are used as taxis, and in many other
countries too I gather. That says a lot.
There are some stupid people out there. Name snobs.
The Sandero is a sound and sensible motor.
Also I run a Skoda Superb.......and it is nothing less!

Also the sons 2 Stepways are now 3 years old and have been no trouble at all.
They have all the kit you would want built in too.

Skoda octavia VRS Estate here also a Yeti 4x4 so certainly not a badge snob
So does that make me a stupid person mjwman?
Both have one thing in common ( Dacia and Skoda ) taken over by much bigger car manufacturers.
My wife has the stepway laureate. Air con sat nav, all the extras. She has the 1.6 diesel. Very good car drives well. Very good on fuel. Smooth ride, good safety features. I would recommend these cars.
I was going to buy myself a Skoda Felicia Fun pick up truck but my missus said she'd divorce me if I did.

I opted for the cheaper option and didn't buy it

Dacia has been a subsidiary of the French car manufacturer Renault since 1999.
I wouldn't buy a Renault either tbh.

11 years, sounds like Triggers broom ;o)

So what is so funny about a Dacia then Baldric?

Would appreciate you answering my question first.
As a fellow Skoda owner you are surely not a name snob. But I don't see why you should be so against Dacias as a brand. Skoda was that joke once but is not now.
I personally do not like Renaults but the Dacias being more simply constructed do the job well. They are comfortable and with the high suspension deal with speed humps without fuss or drama.

I speak from direct experience that for someone on a budget, these are good solid motors.

I've looked closely at the photo's and reviews, especially the owners reviews and they don't come out of those very well, which with them being owned by Renault (I have owned a Renault, but not for long) doesn't surprise me. To my mind they just don't have an appearance, or reputation of a vehicle I/we would want to own. Both the Skodas are solid reliable everyday performers with VAG Group finish, which as you know is good.
For highdays and holidays I admit I prefer to use the Beemer.
