i hope this had made you want to keep the RST!

anyone who buys that will regret it IMO as every where they go they will get chavs saying "oh my days, that car is nang"
but standing behind the chaves will be the rest of the world laughing

How does that work then ? Is it because you're a famous snooker player ?

Ok doesnt look too brilliant there, but imagine the potential. I would get a set of 8" or 9" wide wheels on slicks to fill the arches fully, strip the interior and a couple of proper race seats in there with a full roll cage powder coated in white and a stg 3 330bhp Cosworth conversion driving the rear wheels would make it a decent track toy.

What would that lot cost, Ł7-Ł10K ???

You need to thank AJ for finding you this as the darker blue one is an absolute abortion.... its a real bad replica V6 if ever I saw one! Wouldn't pay out for a real one of these in any event, having seen the pics of the width of that door step I am thinking that Renault should have fitted the cars with electric sideways sliding seats, so that you didn't bang your calves when getting out...... ouch!
