Offers a thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding ownership experience
Runs & drives brilliantly, with previous maintenance to show
A timeless, retro French icon
The Appeal
Launched in 1972 and pitted against the likes of the Mini and Hillman Imp, the Renault 5 certainly had rather large shoes to fill in the supermini market. As a more modern alternative packed with French flair, however, it proved to be a great success, setting the stage for the hatchback and supermini market as we know it.
Presented today is a brilliant chance to enjoy the 2nd generation of the French icon, in the form of this delightful, low-mileage 1990 example. No doubt the recipient of plenty of care throughout its minimal time on the roads, it offers a very respectable condition inside and out, likely retaining plenty of its original finish.
With strong demand for tidy examples of these iconic hatches, this presents a great opportunity for collectors & enthusiasts on the search for a low-mileage, original vehicle. DSC02996.jpg2.78 MB

The Renault 5 was one of the most impactful hatchbacks to grace the roads, proving Renault’s merit in a competitive market and paving the way for the market as we know it. This particular R5 is a shining showcase of the French hero, offering a very low mileage figure, low owner count, excellent mechanical health and a respectable overall finish.
If you’re on the search for a tasty slice of retro motoring goodness, this charming 1990 Renault 5 Auto is the perfect choice.
