Renualt Scenic handbrake?

Question

Im thinking of buying a Renult scenic(new shape) The only thing what puts me off is the electric parking brake instead of a handbrake. If anybody has got a scenic, how do you find the parking brake on hills etc?

Do you think it is easy to get use to?

Answer 1

The handbrake comes on automatically when the engine stops, so there's never usually a problem with it.  Sometimes when you pull away on a hill you have to rev the engine a bit to ensure that it has come off.
