Hello all
First off thanks to Addie for directing me here
Here's a few pics of my Renaults:
Tungsten Grey 2wd
Quadra
The grey one is sold and leaves in a couple of weeks
The white Quadra I've owned for about a month so I'm just starting to toy with the idea of extracting a bit more power out of it

Hey CBR, glad you could make it!
Nice looking 21's you have there, must say the Tungy Grey one looks smart, but power of looks huh? |

Thanks for the warm welcome guy's
If any one is after a 21T they are popping up on Ebay quite regular just lately, They fetch no kind of money and are huge fun to drive.............Not without a few "Quirks" tho |

schakal - Neither have been re-sprayed, I just bought good examples. I never planned to buy the Quadra but it was too good to miss
Roddy - "You WERE the only owner on the site"
Yeah the guy that's buying it is from Scotland, It's 99.9% sold |

About a grand for a 2wd and over 1500 for a Quadra
I paid £1250 for my 2wd and 2K for the Quaddie
I've only had the Tungsten since April (only done 3000 miles), I've had the Cam belt, aux belts, water pump and service done and I'm selling her for £1200 |

You can get a 21T for next to nothing mate, It depends if you want a great example or not, There's always gonna be £200 snotters about and some very good £600-700 motors, the prices I quoted are for very good/excellent examples which aren't that cheap
The figure I've heard is less than 60 Quadra's left on the road |

Sadly there is more and more of these 21t's getting broken for spares by the day just because the owners cant be bothered to fix silly little problems, the same is happening with the 1916v's now. |
