1980 Renault Other

If you have more questions or want more details please email ludivinalmmccubbins(at)coventryfans.com . This car is a 1983 model with its original and valid 1983 VIN number. The car is VERY original. The original owner had it over 30 years and used it as a weekend fun driver. The car show about 101 700km (about 63 000 miles) on the odometer so on average it was driven about 2000 miles each year. (Speedometer and odometer are metric showing KPH speed and km mileage.) The paint appears to be original and as such has some patina. However the roof has obviously had a recoat of clear on it. I see no signs the car was ever damaged other than a few scratches and small dings. There is some bubbling under the paint above where the right rear fender extension is attached. The car is very dark metallic grey metallic black. The original owner said the car was the 185 HP version and it does have the thick intercooler that came with that version. Car has an obnoxious loud Devil exhaust fitted but original muffler is also included. I had Minilite UK make new wheels for the car- 15x7 with 195-45-15 and 16x9 with 245-45-16. The original TRX wheels are also included- they are in good original condition and the tires have excellent tread but older date codes. The spare tire is not shown in the photos or videos but it is included with the car. The car had the original yellow French Cibie driving lights but I tracked down clear lenses for those. Both sets are included. The original owner had a new headliner fitted and the seats rebuilt and reupholstered 3 years ago. They were rebuilt with denser foam than the soft original and as a result you sit higher than normal in the car. I have purchased leather tan seats from another make and was planning on adapting those to the car.
