SINPAR have over the years put 4x4 under various Renaults. I think they had a 4x4 Renualt 4 in the Paris-Dakar one year. A lot of the conversions went to the French military. The company has disappeared into the Renualt empire now making heavy duty transmissions for trucks. Even so a RHD 12 is a rare find. Bookmarked

Boooooooookmarked!! My Dad had an R reg R12 estate in the same colour (or at least dark blue). my folks bought it from our lodger when he bought an R18 estate (followed by a BX 19RD estate, he liked a bit of Frog shooting brake action). It had loads of miles on the clock, just short of 200k when it finally and irrevocably died. It killed a piston so Dad replaced one ("it will cost less to do just one, Son" he said), and it killed another one 5k later.....  |
