Yes all the bonnets are the same 3 or 5 door ones.. Seems a steep price as you could prob just find a normal 5 in the breakers (most likely will be a gen bonnet to) for about a tenner.

I don't know off any breakers with Renault 5s near me(Edinburgh) I have been trawling eBay but when I take postage and the extra cost of painting a old bonnet the Patton part looks like a good option, that's if it fits correctly

You can get a bonnet from Renault for £100 but it's different as not as strong flimsy apparently :)

I've never tried renault but had a look at gtturbo spares and there looking for about £160 so if the Patton part was ok it's half way to painting it
