I brought a Sandero purely because of James may and top gear. It's a bloody good car no frills and honest and it's been 100% reliable in the three years I have owned it.
Fun fact: they did this running joke because they were actually planning to use the Dacia Sandero as the next car for their Star in a Reasonably Priced Car. But the recession then hit and Dacia postponed the release of the Sandero indefinitely, so Top Gear had to get something else.

I love how it quickly cuts to Jeremy before it cuts back to James about to say something about the Dacia Sandero before he just ends up laughing is ass off
I know this was a joke, but I bought one. Dacia is cheap motoring BUT not cheap quality. Same engine as my old clio, 1.5 dci and all the extras, but £3k cheaper than the equivalent clio. 4 and a half years later everything works perfect. Why pay for a fifteen year old car just to have four circles on the front, like many people do, when you can buy a new sandero outright. Badge snobbery isn't confined to just us brits
its not a secret.. Dacias are cheap and reliable because they are re-designed cars from 2/3 generations ago.. will be less refined and outdated .. but they will work .. and thats something many people with less money might want.. I totally respect that and thats why i really like them even tought i never owned one and dont plan to.. (tought if i would need a 4X4 for country use i would definity get a Duster because those not only are tought and cheap.. they actually work as a 4X4 unlike most other SUVs)
I love how when James isn't obsessed with the Dacia Sandero Jeremy is trying to fill the void, but as soon as James starts again he couldn't care less 😂
No its just that no offense its a car company nobody knows about, cares about, or looks forward to buying from From what i hear the cars arent bad for what they are worth, but thats where the joke came from
@@ConnorNotyerbidness here in brazil we got it under the Renault badge. Sandero, duster and kwid. Renault even made a sports version of the Sandero, the Sandero RS 2.0 that uses a duster engine and goes 0 - 100km/h in 8 seconds. Great budget sports car, and a true one at that
For how much of a big joke this was, the guys genuinely liked the Dacia Sandero. So much so that the 2nd model was going to be a candidate for the next Reasonably Priced Car. Unfortunately the production got delayed so it never made it.
The third one with James getting caught immensely off-guard by the fake enthusiasm gets me every time. Such a genuine "Wait what the f-pfffffffffft" kinda reaction is such a mood.
My first trip to Europe this past summer, on a bus in Italy, and I spot a Dacia Sandero. It was like arriving in the promised land. It was also the only Dacia I would see for the whole trip...
We went to Europe two years ago and I saw one in a car park. I had a minor freak out and my wife just did not understand why. It was like seeing a celebrity. I took a selfie with it.
This is a perfect example of how many times does a joke work. 00:02 - 1st time : the originality, the surprise and the context, a well-thought joke. 00:12 - 2nd time : Callback to the first time with a little twist, still very funny. 00:18 - 3rd time : failed attempt because everyone cracks up, anticipating what you're going to say. Even funnier than the original. And then people laugh less and less at each attempt, but they don't forget how much of a classic it is. Truly interesting.
If I have to be honnest, I love the vact that Dacia still has manual windows. They required no effort to roll down (despite what I would have expected) and are actually a great safety feature for when your drive into a body of water.
It'll never ever come to the UK Renault won't allow it trust me I have asked them. Same as the lodgy they won't sell them here as it'll sell better than the Renault equivalents.
my 80 year old Father bought one about a year before he passed away it is the 1500 diesel. I took it on and its been the most reliable car ive ever had, it does 87 mpg and thats not in economy mode , economy mode closes down the turbo intake to save fuel. for a vehicle that weighs just 1.2 tonnes it has 90 bhp thats the equivalent of many of the family sized cars of the 1990s, i recently towed an old 22 ft caravan with it and hardly knew it was behind me . its road tax exempt to , what more do you want? 7 years old and its just passed its mot with no advisories. oh an tyres last 3 years on it, cant say that for many other motors these days can you?
No one can make me buy a car more than James May. Even the best marketing department in the world would be inferior to Captain Slow. I want a Dacia so badly now.
