I love rare French cars here in SA. Owned a Renault 5 GT Turbo, one of only 5 in the country. A Renault Clio Willems 3 only one in SA. Renault Twingo 1 1.2, had two of those, one i fitted a 1.4 16v Clio 2 engine. So yes i like French car and will buy them in any condition if they are rare for SA. Car was scraped by the Bank due to unpaid loan. Owner did not pay loan back due to blowing engine and would have cost him to much to fix. idiot

Law here does not let us import cars from other country's, you may only bring in brand new, rare collector cars or if you lived overseas for more then two years and moving back to SA.

Nice to see a member from SA, I used to be into Vauxhall/Opels big time and went on the SA Opel forum from time to time.

You guys got some proper hardcore models over there that we never got for the European market!

Looks like you have got your hands full with that 306, Have fun Smile

That i have seen before with some cars like we have:
1: E30 BMW 333i
2: Ford Sierra XR8 with V8 motor as standard
3: Alfa Romeo GTV6 with 3.0l v6 i think in UK was only 2.5l v6
4: Opel Kadett/Astra with 2.0 16v Turbo motor from Calibra 2.0 16v Turbo 4x4
5: We only stopped building MK1 Golf in 2009
I think there is more but cannot remember what they are.

These look awesome, not amazingly into Golfs but love the MK1 shape, they looked pretty much original but had very different rear lights. i had the miss fortune of driving a Tazz rent a car from rent a wreck, lmao!
