Hi, my loves! It's been a while! I bought a 1986 Renault 5. It's a car I've always dreamed of; I love old Renaults! This Renault is in incredibly sexy condition! The carburetor is very worn, very dirty. The ignition parts are also very worn and cr*cked and the seats don't have headrests and I like that a lot! The car has almost 300,000 kilometers on the odometer and is quite rusty. But I fell in love with it, and I hope you will too!

I bought it a week and a half ago, drove it to my parking lot, and since then, I haven't turned it on. Today, I have to go to a restaurant, and I decide to take my old Renault for the first time since buying it. I hope it starts quickly despite it's in very, very worn condition. I have already prepared myself to do several cranking attempts.

So the video starts with me holding the camera. I film my feet as I walk in my high heel mules to my car. Then I introduce you to my new b*by, I show you her in full. You will see her very worn condition during this sequence. Then I get in the car, I pull the ch*ke out (it's mandatory otherwise it will never start) and I pump the pedal 3 times to make it easier to start. Then my cameraman takes over.

What follows is incredibly intense. My l*ttle Renault 5 absolutely refuses to start for me for several long minutes before finally showing faint signs of life. Pumping the pedal, don't pumping it, holding the pedal fully pressed for a while, putting the ch*ke full out or disabling it c*mpletely, nothing changes. The car is extremely temperamental. I had no idea it would be so hard to start, my G*d!!!

Sometimes I manage to start it and I press the pedal like crazy to keep it idling. A lot of bl*ck smoke comes out of the exhaust. A lot! And in the end if I stop pressing the g*s pedal, the engine stalls. The carburetor is really in very bad shape!!

Finally, after more than 20 incredible minutes, I finally manage to start the car and get it to idle! I can finally go to the restaurant. It's a good thing I left early. I hope I'll be able to restart it after the restaurant... Maybe it's too much to leave my Renault for more than a week without starting it. Or maybe it starts like this all the time, even if I drive it every day...

To be continued.......
