WheelhorseBob 1,549 #3 Posted November 3, 2021 So…..I’m struggling with self control here. Against my better judgement I went back in and looked thinking I’ll just do it and beg forgiveness. Seller changed price from 750.00 to 2500.00. Said he had 55 offers over asking! Thank you who bid this up! You saved me the aggravation of a Renault…. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maxwell-8 4,277 #10 Posted November 3, 2021 Hhaha, Renault, the cars that fall apart over every speedbump. No serieus, they often have pieces falling apart. The summer before covid, we were enjoying our dinner on a terrace at a local restaurant. Before the door was this speedbump, a Renault drives by and his entire exaustsystem falls off . The sound diffrence was hilarious. Race-mode engaged! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driving around town, guy with his girlfriend in his big suspension truck... cowboy hat, sunglasses, he thinks he is high on the mountain. He pulls off at the gas station, starts to pump the gas. He is so "cool" that he doesn't realize that every drop of gas he is putting in the truck is gushing out underneath. Oh God that was hilarious....

I had a DM600 that had a two stick but the second sick was the five, a low hole and reverse. 2 hours ago, ebinmaine said: Love those old R models!
