thanks :) took this pic a while back in krems, austria. now looking to buy a twingo as my first car
i need to find the right one which both has AC and the soft top as i would be daily driving it

least based twingo enjoyer
I'm >>26500603 and it is hard to find a twingo spec'd to my liking. most of the AC models with higher specs have leather seats to which I prefer the normal cloth seats due to its colours and for some reason few ac models are equipped with the soft top. A nice twingo is now around 2-3000 dollars where I live (Hungary), but I am constantly on the lookout to find one hopefully with way less than 100k miles

I think they legit look pretty good if the bumper panels are painted as well.

Retards detected
White was always an option, especially for shitboxes. But in europe just really fell out of fashion in the late 90s and came back about a decade later. And white cars were usually used deliveries or other services
Here's a bunch for auction

>>26501919
I managed to get my hands on a Twingo with a 1.2 16v engine and A/C with cloth seats. No folded roof, though. And I honestly prefer it that way, since I can't imagine the additional noise it would bring driving 1200km from Germany to Poland. Nicely specced old twingos are starting to get expensive as shit. I had to pay 1600 yuro for mine, but I didn't have many options to choose from at the time. Initale looks sexy, but leather seats without heating are a no go for me.
>>26502036
Have a phase 3 twonger with light blue paint color. Bumpers also painted. Looks fucking magical when clean, but unfortunately the weather's been shit last 2 weeks, so not much opportunity to show off.

Just upgraded my twingo with cabasse speakers from laguna. I recommend this to everyone who isn't willing to spend fucktons of cash on aftermarket speakers with an amplifier. They work perfectly just hooked up to a Pioneer radio

>>26502083

False, retard. Only years after the launch did the Twingo come in white. I don't know how you found so many retarded white ones in one place but they are very rare.

Almost bought one when I was young, but the (actual) gypsy that was trying to sell it to me was too shady.
It is sad that they now look like an even worse Fiat 500
--- 26503531
>>26503522
Forgot to mention, I ended up with the pic related from a lesser shady seller, I loved that car but besides the engine everything failed on it in 2 and a half years of ownership.
--- 26503538
>>26500603
For some reason AC and sunroof were almost impossible to find together when I was looking for one, but right after I bought mine a few popped up.
Sunroof and 16V engine had priority for me.
--- 26503804
>>26503538
yeah i get it
however do you know how hard is it to install a soft top on the car? if it is doable i'd buy the ac version and cut the roof myself
--- 26503989
>>26503804
You can actually get salvaged sunroof assemblies, but I don't know how much work it'd be to install one. You'd also be introducing a major risk for potential leaks.
That said, I know some VW people have put them in old Golfs for example, so it is possible.

The main difference is that in the Twingo you'd just die while in the new small car you'd become a potato.
Buying cars seems to have become an arms race of who'll have the heaviest car in the crash.

A Geo Metro or something slightly newer in that category would give you a similar car experience (no power, plastic interior, costs fuck all to run).
A Dodge Neon would be closer in terms of meme face.

--- 26538353
>>26537985
The Initiale was the top trim, with silver interior inserts and leather upholstery. I think it also had a couple of unique wheel options.
There were so many trims and special variants that if you're looking to buy one, it's honestly easier to just look for the options you want at a price you're okay with.
Seriously, scroll down to all the special editions here:
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Twingo_I
http://www.auto-pub.net/ASL/Renault/page_Renault.htm
I will give a special mention to the extremely rare Twingo Galaxy, which came painted (not stickered, actually painted) like this from the factory.
