aye, times move on as does technology.
Ren used to have some cracking engines, the Alpine's gordini 1.8 16V of the 60's pumped out 200bhp. |

Shame not many renaults are rallied in the UK these days 'cept the clios.
I do radio marshalling for the Scottish Rally Championship so my 19 gets a good thrash through the stages every month or so, think that's the only renault you'll see rallying in scotland!
(I should add that I'm not a competitor & I ALWAYS stick to the 25mph speed limit imposed on non competitive vehicles  & I've NEVER hit 70mph on a narrow forest track, honnest  )
I remember the 1st car my parents had after I was born was a white R14 with red velour interior, they bought it new and had to scrap it after a 5 years because of the rust! - no wonder you hardly ever see them about any more. |
Scottish Rally Championship? Never heard of that, next time you go tell me lol |
