Cars like the Scenic and Grand Scenic are bought for one reason – to shift the family with the minimum fuss and hassle. All of which makes this result rather worrying. Only nine cars were rated as more unreliable than the Scenic in this year’'s survey –– an awful result for a model so many owners rely on to get the kids to school. But you rated practicality as very good, while ride quality and comfort also came in for praise. However, 15 per cent of owners said the Scenic hadn'’t lived up to their expectations.
