• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Fun car to drive, but poor quality and reliability unfortunately..!

Mine was even the same colour, but with black fenders, wheel arches and skirts. Dash was black too.
120 bhp stock but mine had a little more. More than enough for a car that weighed 840 kilo's!
 
..Now I have one of these (Without the wild race trim of course!):

Not as fast, but build quality and reliability are a lot better!
 
I used to own a Renault 5 too although mine was the basic version. I liked Renault cars and had a 16, 5, 14 and Fuego in that order. Between the 16 and 5 I had a Triumph 2000TC for a short while (without doubt the worst car I have ever owned) and after the Fuego I had a Citroen BX until I emigrated from the UK.
 
When we lived in the UK my wife had a Diesel Renault 5 can you imagine anything less powerful than that? It was like driving a bag of bolts to hear it start up. :jump:
