It is not often I like my Renault. But I did enjoy myself a bit today. I bought the damn machine a year ago and thanks to a major Renault issue it was taken off road for 10 weeks due to a production issue with the keys. The dealership were up front if blunt but Renault UK expertly fobbed me off for a major time. I hope they are paying those guys well, because I wouldn't do it for all the tea in China. Don't let me get started on the turbo. All right since you insis i will. My turbo went off line. In a diesel turbo it is crucial. No turbo no power. I took it to my dealership who had it for a day and told me my turbo wasn't working. Since that is what I told the dealership when I booked it in I was less than impressed. It has worked well since then however.
So the reason i enjoyed myself today was due to my speed limiter. I was driving through a bunch of road works with the speed limit set at 30 mph. I set my limiter to 29 mph and watched the queue build up behind me. It was one of those Victor Meldrew moments. I counted eight cars and that was only in half a mile.

I wonder if you can make this a sport
