This red Renault 5 has a long MoT to 26th April 2027, having passed its last 3 inspections without advisories. MoT tests have been carried out almost every year from at least as far back as 2005, and today the odometer is showing 37,030 miles. The car was purchased by the vendor from a deceased estate in 2019. He describes it as an original-spec GTS, complete with twin-choke Weber carburettor.

The service book records 13 services up to 22k miles in 2004, and the history file contains various receipts from 2012 on, indicating at least 2 further oil changes. In 2024 the car received new wheel cylinders, discs, pads, and a new exhaust, and the coolant was flushed earlier this year. Paperwork also includes a stack of MoT certificates from 2009 to the present day, and the current V5C showing 4 former keepers. The car was first registered on 20th November 1989.

Ready to be enjoyed as is, or perhaps used as a candidate for conversion to Turbo spec?
