New C1J

[rs250nut]

I know gt tuning used to sell these back in the day but are short motors still available? I had one may moons ago but the car it was in got stolen.

[m5tt]

I went into Renault around 3/4 years ago for my blue r5 GTT and Enquired about a brand new Renault supplied C1J ,

I was expecting something of the thausands ..... But was pleasently supprised with the reply of yes that will be 600 odd pound (Vat Not Inc) I never took them up as :laugh: I dont even know how to fit an Engine ... Haha

But its been a while best part of four years now so Who knows give them a try !

No longer available, last new one sold was in aug 2007... I know it was in my dealership in ashford, the parts bloke love's to tell me his claim to fame...

Penfold To be honest I was stunned when Harlow Darlingtons even said they could get one (back then) It amased me , What sort of money passed through the customers hands do you know ?

Still technically am a Driving Instructor, but the way my business dried up in Oct/Nov last year i thought it was a good time to wind the business up. I dont mind I am afoster carer now and that allows me the flexiblity to find a job that i want rather than a job for ££'s.

Plus a driving instructor dont make the £30k per year people think it does...:(
