Another Car to the collect
Well as a lot of you may know, I have a renault 5, which is a 16v turbo. I also own a renault 19 convertible. I picked up the other week a renault 5 gt turbo raider, unsure on what doing with that yet. Its pretty much stripped to shell. But picking up my 4th one this weekend. Its a clio with a difference. Some of you may have seen pictures of it, or have heard of it. Ill leave the suprise for a little while. But it will make my renault 5 16v turbo feel tame. Collecting it saturday. so watch this space

Also you may remember that I sold my renault 19 chamade to suffolk police, yes heard it all. But the case has now finished. they just need to hold it for a little while longer and fingers cross might make the 5th renault in my collection lol. Do miss that car.

Erm year just slightly, I sold my car to suffolk police, if you had read my first post on the thread explaining.

Saw it on the news beginning of month, think people like that should be charged for manslaughter. Death by dangerous driving the penalty is too low at the moment

This is taking the piss. Why do people say yes come collect this saturday car is yours. Then the afternoon before to leave to go collect the car they bloody well go and say sorry the car is sold. Do people people like doing this. They didn't even say its going to be first come first serve, else I would have driven there with some money to put a deposit. Worse thing is I know the bloke. So guess its going to be on with the raider project Pictures will appear soon when I get a chance.

He is a member off RTOC, plus I chat to him on MSN enough.

The car in question was the Clio TT with the VAG lump in it, running 500bhp.

Person who has purchased it, is going to strip the car down to make some money from it. That person owns the Renault 5 with the VAG lump running around 270bhp. Unsure if he is going to use some parts on his car though. Doubt he will put that lump in the 5, that will rip it apart.
