Renault R5 2024

Hardly on the market, numerous listings for the Renault 5 are popping up on the leading used car site in France, La Centrale.

The thought of waiting for your delivery slot is unbearable for you? Then don’t waste any time and head straight to La Centrale where listings for the new Renault 5 are already arriving. Admittedly, the offered models are not “budget options,” and the information regarding eligibility for the 4000 euro ecological bonus is not available.

For more information, you will need to pick up the phone and call the dealer. And that’s where the trap closes. Will the dealer really be willing to sell you the model in the picture that serves as a prominent display in their sales area?

The problem with the Renault 5 is that delivery times will be long, even very long, as commercial success seems to be on the horizon. At Mobiwisy, we attempted the experience of signing a lease like regular customers, and the salesperson was impermeable to any negotiation regarding the price or payments. For now, it’s full price!

Why should you be wary of these used cars?

The models already listed on La Centrale, however, have some “flaws.” While the mileage may be low, the rest is not. Demonstration models have hundreds of people testing the doors, sitting down, pressing buttons, turning the system off and on, and thus affecting the battery.

These test models, like those at auto shows, suffer and dealers are therefore quite eager to get rid of them.

Another “issue,” the first models often experience bugs and reliability problems. It is always advisable to wait several months before purchasing or leasing your vehicle, lest you find yourself frequently returning to the workshop. This is not unique to Renault, but applies to ALL manufacturers.

Finally, these initial models are often Fully Loaded, which excessively inflates the prices. Ultimately, it’s up to you.
