Hello from a new proud Wind owner

['Old'SeaDog]

Collected my black 1.2 Dynamique S yesterday..absolutely fantastic, and awesome weather to match. This is the only car that I've owned that genuinely puts a smile on my face every time I drive it...had many admiring glances too...at the car, not me though...Hope you're all enjoying the open top weather, I'm fortunate enough to live on the coast near Dungeness, and it's sweltering here...feel sorry for all those non-convertible types.

Obviously you bought after seeing mine  at Dungeness we were there the beginning of August.

Hi Barbs....no, haven't seeen any that aren't local to my knowledge around the area, but great that you were here in August...hope the weather was good. My main reason was that my wife had a blue GT line back in 2011 which we bought in Ashford pre-registered from the Renault dealer...she kept it until 2014, before part ex-ing to a Peugeot 108 with a fabric folding roof(not quite the same). I always had the 'sensible' hatchbacks. I always regretted no longer having the Wind...so did some research, and convinced her that my 2014 Peugeot 308 in the driveway should make way for another Wind....her's being in the garage....so now I have my very own - fun to drive- car of choice.

Hi there! Welcome to the forum and driving a great rare car.
I’ve not had mine long either!
Check out the new Renault Wind Owners Club page on Facebook!
It’s only been going a week, but already got a few members and always wanting a new member to join!

['Old'SeaDog]

Cheers...I'm personally not on Facebook (shock/horror)....but may join up for a look see. The forum looks good though, and thanks for the invite

[bigjase1972]

No problem mate!

[Barbs]

There were 2 black Winds one had a residents posted in I saw a Wind.
Dungeness was an incredible place to stay. I envy you living any where near it.

['Old'SeaDog]

Yes....a black one lives nearby, and has done for a couple of years, I wonder if you saw that one...although that one never seems to move much...pity.
Dungeness is indeed an amazing place to live..although in the winter the weather can seem rather extreme to say the least !!....I reckon a gathering of Winds would look awesome with the shingle backdrop, narrow guage railway, railway carriage cottages and nuclear power station

[Barbs]

It was indeed amazing when I can post a picture I will.

OldSeaDog - guessing you put the card on our windscreen introducing us to this Wind group, thank you. We do move our Wind and often come down to Dungeness for lunch but obviously when you don't notice us.
One day when you're passing please knock would be good to meet you and see your Wind. Ours is number 30 of a collection of 100.

[bigjase1972]

Hi Sea breeze! Come and join the Renault Wind Owners Club UK over on Facebook!
We are now up to 14 members in less than two weeks up and running.
Plenty of chat, advice and pictures to look at!
Would be great to see you on there.

[bigjase1972]

[Sea Breeze]

Thanks

Hi Sea Breeze it was me that carded your car we were on holiday in Dungeness staying just round the corner from the Power station. We stayed at Wi Wurri

[Sea Breeze]

Hi Wi Wurri many thanks for putting the card on our Wind and thus introducing us to this forum and FB group. Hope you had a good holiday and if ever you're down this way again, please knock.

['Old'SeaDog]

Hi Sea Breeze, excellent to hear from a fellow 'Marsh' wind owner...think that we have driven past your Wind many times if you reside on Coast Drive, next time we're close by we'll say hello...would be great to meet up at Dungeness sometime...although I doubt that mine is quite as special as your Collection model...mine being a black Dynamique S with tan seats and black alloys.

[Sea Breeze]

OldSeadog....we're sure your Wind is just as special as ours.....they all are!
