Zhese old Renaults are perfect for winter, Clio, R5 or R4. They can climb anywhere and if you wreck them, oh well, they're cheap

More from white to an undefined gray, with some random idiotic town names on it which a buddy wrote in the smut with his fingers. They never disappeared, even after I lent the car to my mom who drove directly to a car wash.

Oh and never, neverever get an R5 - or as it was called by Renault garages: the little enemy

They're legendary here. A mini SUV, like a Landrovers embrio. Some people have an R% in their garages during the year and only register it for 4 months during the winter. They're that good (and expendable) on snow

R5 in the winter? You guys are crazy! One snowflake + a grain of salt + R5 = rustbucket
The same happens with any form of water, so they are a very seldom sight here nowadays.
But I saw a GT5 Turbo some weeks ago, just because a buddy who was an ex R5 owner spotted it and made obscene noises towards it.
I reminded him of all the pain he had with his car, but still...

Maybe Renault built in some mind-control devices into their cars.

We never buy them for their beauty
Our R5's have more rust than metal on them but they still run
But never, ever, ever think of buying it if you dont have some basic mechanical experience
