Setting this special edition apart from the standard Renault 5 E-Tech, the Renault 5 E-Tech Roland-Garros is equipped with an array of model-specific elements, outside and in. The former includes the placement of Roland-Garros logos on the lower part of the front doors. Specially designed alloy wheels are also included with the package. The exterior colour palette comprises a quartet of body hues. The latter includes pearl white, midnight blue, starry black, and an “exclusive” shade of matte slate grey.

The interior features “special” grey upholstery, replete with a “dense” graphic weave. The “fully recycled” textile includes a number of open-weave features. In addition, Roland-Garros logos have been embossed into the backrests of the front pews. A neat element, the ‘e-pop’ gear selector, which also features a Roland-Garros logo, takes inspiration from a tennis racket’s grip, while the centre console-sited wireless smartphone charging pad is reminiscent of the French Open’s red clay courts. ‘Red clay’ loop-pile mats are also present.

Topical tips on buying used – Chapter 1

Image
Buying a used car can be harrowing, whether privately or from a dealer. Here are some tips, as well as some things to watch out for. Beware of low mileages, especially on smaller or cheaper cars. It is always possible that the odometer has been turned back. Some things to bear in mind are:- diesels are often bought because they the driver needs to undertake long trips without consuming vast amounts of fuel. This could be a sales rep, or someone travelling large distances to work, lots of lengthy trip for family holidays, etc. So, usually higher mileages than normal. An expensive or luxury car may not see much time on the road, but very seldom a “workhorse”. This makes the executive cars likely to have a lot more life left than the overworked and abused hatchback. These also spend most of their life in a home garage or undercover parking lot at work.
