"Hi XXXXXXX, As far as I know the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is still in play. Had someone interested in it yesterday. The car belongs to my nephew who lives out of state. The car does not run at this point. There is nothing wrong with the engine. It was driven to our cottage. The gas has to be drained and it needs a battery. I will send your number to nephew and he can send you a detailed description. Good luck. It seems like you would be a perfect fit for the car."

Sounds like fun. Need to grab a trailer though, freaking too many trips across country in ragged crapboxes to do it again and survive

Marine City is kinda rural, plan accordingly if you're gonna overnight. There is a U-Haul in Ira (Eastbound I-94 to 26 Mile Road Exit, turn right and 26 Mile turns into Marine City Highway and takes you right into Marine City [9317 Marine City Highway Ira, MI 48023 (586) 648-1175]).

No worries. I used to live near there, so I'm familiar with the area. Good Luck!

Sweet :)

CarnivalOfBowls on here has a non-turbo one of these I seem to remember. I think it's in bits at the moment awaiting parts.

She doesn't frequent oppo much, but you could probably catch her on the FP.

oh man those parts are gold. Just like my pile of parts for my 504D wagon. I would have to stockpile them!

Yeah, I remember her having trouble. The Renault club's quite good in the States. Not big, but very helpful with bits like this.

It's odd that cars like this are so obscure these days. They sold tons of them back in the day. Best selling 2-door of its time I seem to remember.

It was the Italian Tin Worm's cousin, the French one. They sold quite a few in the States too. American culture was and still is a disposable one

As a Renault owner myself, I say kudos to you. You'll certainly be the only one on your block and it's actually a fun car. I know where there's a project Renault Medallion (Renault 21) if you want to start a collection of 80's French cars Americans hated.
