Got an offer for the old 190, which is £100 more than I paid for it about 6 years ago. Not bad considering its a non runner. ;D
Then went out and bought a Re****t.  :-[ :-[ :-[
Reliant  :)
Renault  :o :-X

A Reliant seems much more up his street ;) ;D

Ahh, but will it run on chip oil, that's the question...


As for mine, I discovered you can put both a shed and a greenhouse into it. As long as you fold them...

K-series, mazda gearbox, narrowed Escort axle with 5.5x13 steels. MG Metro front brakes and 12" Mini Steel wheels.


Or more likely, 1300 Suzuki and gearbox from a Jimny(without the transfer box) and an axle from the toaster vans. Adapt the front hubs and brakes to the uprights and use the matching wheels.
In a Rebel/Kitten/Fox obviously.

I think he's brought it to park next to the Merc ,when the Ren**** catches fire,the heat produced will melt the fatburg that is clogging the fuel lines of his 190  :-\  allowing him to continue driving on saturated fat ,battered sausages etc

I think you may be surprised at your Renault, Albs, we never had any problems with ours, not even the electrics.

59 plate clit 1.5 DCi. 109k on the clock, had a minor bump at the rear, so an insurance loss. £700.
Allegedly averages 62mpg  ::)  £30 p.a. ved.
Might be £700 wasted, we shall see.

Not the best engine and not one know for Reliability so get it checked over well, if it is the 1.5 its a belt so needs changing

Basically is a Dacia with a Renault badge (or the other way round.... ;D ;D)
