One real Frog

[Uncleyves]

Hi all

I have browsed your forum and found that they are a lot of Peugeot owners in New Zealand.
I live in Aoteroa since 2002 and have always been a Renault lover. I owned and lived around few models from R4,R11,R25,Espace,Laguna2 estate and a 1952 deluxe 4cv, the last 4 I have owned.
I found a Yellow Alpine GTA V6 Turbo last year on trade me and couldn't resist.
After dealing with the previous owner ( a really nice person) I purchased the vehicle and now enjoy every moment of it.
Firstly I am in contact on a forum in France and it reminds me my country, secondly it keeps me in touch with all the little troubles this kind of car can have and thirdly but not the least the ride is pretty and fantastic.
So as your forum is called "fast frogs" I thought I should join you fellows.
Maybe some of you may have seen it around the Wellington area.
I will familiarise with the forum and will post few pics at a later date.

Regards

Welcome to ff.

Also, can I haz your car please  .
very nice.

I was just leaving work at 7:15am when we had the first one.
the one at 5:10pm was definitely quite impressive.
I'm usually oblivious to little quakes but certainly noticed the 2 yesterday.
Also I hear we had a decent one on Friday morning at which point I
was sitting outside having a beer but I didn't notice it at all.

Sweet car man,

I remember seeing that on trade-me.

welcome along, awesome to have some more Renaults on board.

Hi Lincooln

Thanks . Yes thats exactly where I got it from! Was browsing without anything in mind and fell on it . Thought to myself , I have to save it  . Which i did . Took me a year to get on top of the widly known age defects and there it is !

Welcome. Great car, I remember dreaming about this car when it was last for sale. Well done.

Had the pleasure of being driven in a modified Turbo on a club drive earlier this year, was properly rapid, slightly scary!

[Uncleyves]

Hi RS

yes it is a bit scary.
Do you know who owns the R5 Turbo2  which is parked next to the Alpine GTA on your picture.
This is another of my dream car.
And by the way Peugeot lovers there are quite a few oldies for sale on trade me at the moment. I am eyeing one of them.

Cheers
