Legal proceedings against manufacturers and importers due to unrealistic consumption figures to be the all the way in 2014! To be a good American example, are now also in Europe the first cases in los. An anonymous Belgian now at Renault include.

The man, let him ‘Jefke’, bought a Renault Grand Scénic 110 DCi eco, and was made on the basis of the folderspecs extremely content. After all, with a consumption of just 4.5 litres per one hundred km for city traffic there would be plenty of money left over for an ANWB-membership, stamp albums, new spencers, or where the Grand Scénic-rider, but also the permission of his wife from getting his money.

Great was the terror of Jefke also when his Renault 7 to 7.5 litres turned out to consume, even in a country where the fuel is relatively inexpensive, is a nice loss. Whoa. Now it feels Jefke are fools, and so he will cross swords with Renault. Herein he is assisted by law firm Jef Vermassen, reports The Newspaper.

Recently decided by the Dutch Foundation Brandstofverlies a similar claim against Toyota. For Belgian renault drivers is with them, however, not a place, and so must Jefke it on their own account against the maker of his car, which to him, by following the mandatory NEDC measurement method, a rad for the eyes runs.

We wish him much success, who knows he a willing judge and takes it good for him.
