About the 2006 RENAULT MOTORHOME
The 2006 RENAULT MOTORHOME is a large car with a 2953cc diesel engine. 81 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It ranks in the top 19% of all 2006 cars for reliability.
With an average of 56,533 miles at 18 years old, RENAULT MOTORHOME owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.
2006 RENAULT MOTORHOME Fuel Costs
The 2953cc diesel engine is on the larger side, so fuel won't be this car's strong point. Expect around 40 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,245 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.

Buying a Used 2006 RENAULT MOTORHOME
At 18 years old, the RENAULT MOTORHOME is firmly in budget territory. Purchase prices are low, but check for rust, worn suspension bushes, and electrical gremlins.
