egg Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I paid £500 for it in 2002 and ran around it in for a while. Then the diff started grumbling badly, I had some 'life issues' and the MOT ran out. I then sold it for £295 (cries!) in 2003. It went up north on a flatbed. I don't think it ever went back on the road, sadly. My parents had one for years when I was a kid, I'll see if I can find a pic of that one too.

The last V5 was issued in Feb 2012, so it could still be around somewhere. egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

62 Austin Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I have often wondered if the Renault "Le Car" was shiteworthy. It's got a lot going for it made #2 spot on a "Cars that should never have been built" list reliability is baked into these machines and lasts as long as a loaf of French bread is edible the usual French ennui about things automotive "Renault 5" in other countries, "Le Car" in U.S., even though "La Voiture" would have been more apropos small, noisy, slow  Rab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
