Renault 5

I’ve ordered one too for July in yellow (Techno). It’s going to be my commuter car and we’ll keep our 18 Civic for everything else. Being a one car household has proven increasingly difficult.

Good on you, great choice. Have any deliveries started yet at all, I haven't seen one on the road yet and they're not going to be hard to miss.

My partner saw a yellow one on the N4 last week. I haven’t seen any in the wild.

The car salesman said it’s been very popular with people booking test drives but not necessarily buying. He did expect it to sell well however.

It's working out a good bit more expensive than some people originally thought, it was touted as a sub 25k small ev for a while but not available in Ireland anyway. The 52kwh version is pushing into megane/id3/cupra born money which i personally think is too expensive but i have to say, it looks great.

I think the smaller battery one makes much more financial sense

yes the price is higher than i thought it would be originally- there’s a lot of competition in that space especially from the new Chinese who are giving a lot for the money and are very premium feeling

I seen a blue one in Athlone the weekend before last, but it was probably out on a test drive

When I ordered, I was told delivery dates would be in June / July
