I wish mate. Im 16 soon and im getting a bike so i dont have any cash for it. Not to mention when i am of driving age i will be long gone. Probly Texas to stay with my brother. What mods do you have done to it? Mileage? Does it smoke? I know alot of the 5s these days smoke like a bitch because they have been owned by chavs n pikeys n basically thrashed to ****. Id really like to know more.

eh no chavs had this one i got it and was totally stock with 70k on it, but it was stolen/recovered with no keys (it had been towed not driven) and partially stripped. managed to source the missing parts and got it running, contacted previous owner and he still had s/h for it including the actual renault service sheets and ££££ in bills. its got a k-tec ktr180 hybrid, in-car boost, 15" R19 16v alloys etc etc. came off the road in dec due to an alternator but i got a v-tec crx off an old girl for less than an alternator which i then swapped for my starion and its stayed in the garage ever since except when i pull it out to wash it and turn it over
