By and large, when we talk about cars, we're overwhelmingly concerned with what's new, what's being launched and what developments are on the way. We tend to devote less attention to goodbyes, to cars which slip quietly out of production with not so much as a by your leave. Every once in a while, however, we lose one of the icons and exactly that happened in January 2012 when Renault withdrew the Espace from sale in the UK. It came as a shock to many, but the sales figures didn't lie and the Espace had, much as it hurts to admit it, become too expensive to be wholly relevant, especially to a new generation of increasingly cash-strapped families. The product itself retained its unique charm and although the pricing when the car was new was eye-watering, second time around there's a lot to be said for the last of this esteemed line.

History
Perhaps it was exactly because the Renault Espace had come to represent the default large MPV in most people's eyes that its summary deletion from Renault's price lists seemed such a shocker. There aren't too many vehicles that act as quite such a benchmark in their sector as the Espace. This model was the fourth generation car, originally launched back in 2002, but re-jigged in 2010. The Espace had been treated to a few rounds of cosmetic surgery, with refreshes coming in 2005 and 2007, so Renault had certainly wrung some value from this platform.
By 2010, the Espace still looked great. Expensive, but great. It was clear from respective sales figures that the lion's share of large MPV sales were going to budget models like the Kia Sedona, the SEAT Alhambra and the entry level versions of Chrysler's Grand Voyager. The market for a true TGV-style experience seemed to have dried up, although the sales Renault did make were overwhelmingly biased to the longer wheelbase Grand Espace than its shorter sibling. The 2010 changes attempted to improve the Espace's value proposition whilst at the same time paring the range right back to one engine in two power outputs, a transmission choice and one trim level across the two wheelbases.
