La Renault 5 de mon père
More than twelve years of presence in Europe, nearly six million units, 17% of the French market alone at the beginning of the 1980s: these figures alone show to what extent the Renault 5 will have had a real career as a "Supercar", as the advertisers in charge of its launch campaign very rightly named it.
Innovative with its bumper shields and its "supermini" size, practical thanks to its tailgate and its modularity, modern and colorful, cute with its expressive face, it is a real car to live with following the tradition of the brand. The French, and beyond that, the Europeans, were not mistaken and quickly adopted it!
It was all the easier since everyone could find a model in the range adapted to their needs, from the simple basic version to the explosive Turbo, via the LS and TS road cars, the frugal GTL, the TX of the chic neighborhoods, the hard-working Société or the Alpine of the sportsmen, without forgetting the three-volume Siete reserved for the Spanish market. Who has not, at least once, made a journey on board one?
