RETRO GOLD Reanult 5 TL project

[djinuk]

Picked up this little gem nice and cheap, my friend purchased it to get the plate from it , and as such i managed to wangle a deal with him as i needed a run about and my r5 fix.

The car stunk of dogs, so i spent almost half a day hoovering the thing, lowered it and drove it and its been great.

I dont think r5's this shape really come more retro, Its slow, very slow, great on fuel and a great hoot, bodyworks real straight , the sills have had a few mot welding repairs one of which will need redoing before mot , but im super happy with my purchase.

Looks great!

That's the colour I've been waiting for someone to do a GTT in. It's lush.

The interior, barring front seats and door cards seems to have come up a treat

Btw, I'd stick the mats through the washing machine. Much less work

is that the same colour as mine? if so sean on here has the correct plastic trim and bumpers to match the colour from a monaco he broke.

That's correct mate but I've sold the parts to you Mojo? lol

I got fairly few lefts to sell such as shell on dolly as front end suspension parts sold with rare sliding sunroof, doors, tailgate and 1.7 engine/box 😉👍

sorry sean thought you had got another monaco. my mistake. although the 1.7 engine you have is great fun in a 5.

to be honest i like the different colored trim, it just suits the car well.

and cheers for the kind words, not sure im keeping it yet as i need a daily wagon to tow the nissan.. but its growing on me and i love driving it.. hmm

Looks good, cheap on fuel and a hoot to drive gotta be a win win, could be a good winter runaround or spare car, then maybe drop a c1j in later on
