HURRRRAAAAA!!!!

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

Not sure why the pic doesn't work now. It did yesterday! Anyway, you get the idea!

Why? I thought you R5 and clio dudes might know the answer?! I like the R4 with the Gordini alloys! That would be a funking funny car!
They have the gear stick up on the dash / steering columb or something.

I realise my 5 is 17 years old but come on, colum (spelling) change.......that went out with the ark, dont know much about renault 4's, but it probabty hasn't even got servo assisted brakes, and come to think of it, maybe even drum brakes on the front!!

You'd need a parashute to stop the bloody thing.

Then theres the fact it resembles an old mini clubman, and thats not good.

Pics work now cheers, but cool isnt a word a would choose to use i dont think, defo different tho, looks like someone has grafted 5GT turbo rear arches on it too, plenty of room for a V6 clio engine in the back tho, or even a T5 lump, think panels would peal clean off with that power tho. :rofl:

OMG, a 2CV, that offended my eyeballs, had to close picture quickly!!

Just immaging how you'd feel getting 'done' at the lights by a renault 4 though! It's got serious comedy value!
