Way back in another life my new bride bought a Renault R5 with the embarassing Le Car badge. But, it was like a turbo gocart on the commute into NYC. Made for a very lively trip into and out of the city. Cavernous interior.

At the time the local Lotus dealer offer a free R5 with the purchase of an ?Elite. Can’t recall exactly

That would be a collectors piece by now.
Probably the Lotus Elise. :)

Did the R5 Successor the “Clio” make it Stateside?

I learned recently that Dr. Skoda from Law and Order was, you got it, named after the car brand as a joke.
