Renault 5

Set in a bygone era of the early ‘90s with no mobile phones, email or sat nav, three young, single women decide to leave England and embark on a continental road trip. They save up some cash, buy an old Renault 5 and get on the ferry to France two days before Christmas, much to the amusement and disdain of family and friends. Over the course of the next six months the car becomes their home while they travel to France, Andorra, Spain, Gibraltar, Morocco and Portugal meeting colourful characters and experiencing good old-fashioned sex, drugs & rock ‘n’ roll… and even true love. Every night the girls chronicle their adventures in diaries along with sketches and cartoons of the places and the people they meet. This autobiographical novella combines those three diaries in an authentic, comical and detailed account of life in a small car.
