well i don't have any idea about renault costs, but what i can tell you with full belief and accuracy is that NOTHING comes close to the reliability and low maintenance costs of japanese cars, especially toyota. they just keep going on and on and on. and if you stick to the basic recommended maintenance schedule, toyotas could run forever haha..i saw a toyota camry few days back which had been driven 798000 kms..that is absolutely and unbelievably high mileage..and the car was ten years old..i could not believe how smooth and quiet it was..all the owner did was take good care of the engine and change oil regularly because he drove a lot..if maintenance and cost and reliability is a concern for you, then japanese cars are the way to go. best of luck:-)
