Hertz Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Never seen one for sale! Take it you have tried the Renault owners club etc?I know of a guy call Paul Godfrey who was selling some of his private collection of rare Renaults and Alpines have you tried him at all?

The Reverend Bluejeans Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Absolutely nothing on Ebay France either. They must be almost extinct now. Used to see millions of then in France in the seventies as well as other French rightness - Pug 204 and 304, Ami 6 and 8 Cits plus DS19's and Renault 4's must have outnumbered cockroaches. Aah, the days when the French built proper cars, a long time ago now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun1706 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Firstly, Hi all, some of you might know me from other forums.I know where there are at least 2 R17s, both RHD and both requiring loads of work but as far as I remember complete. think there are a couple of 15s there too in the same state. They are in a scrap yard near to me in Wrexham. Give David Kelly car dismantlers a call and try to speak with Dave, he is well into all things Renault and Jag.Cheers, Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 ^ Very true! David Kelly cars is a very worthwhile trip if you need R12 / 15 / 17 bits. Not been for a few years but it was a proper old style scrapyard.They also had a Dacia Denem which makes it virtually unique in the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRegieRitmo Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Not got any contact number sorry as I was getting the eye from the girl on the checkout.If she was giving you the eye, surely that would mean you were in there?! So I'm sure you could have got her number if you'd have asked for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian_pt Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I went to David Kelly's back in 2003 and saw some excellent stuff... Fiat 125, Wartburg Knight, Simcas, Mayflowers, and of course that glorious Denem among lots of 12/16s, and a whole load of ancient Jags... Marvellous.

Hertz Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Not got any contact number sorry as I was getting the eye from the girl on the checkout.If she was giving you the eye, surely that would mean you were in there?! So I'm sure you could have got her number if you'd have asked for it! No those days of me getting the eye are sadly over, more chins than a chinese address book! What I was trying to say was she was giving me the eye as if to say "buy it or f$ck off cheap skate"  Looks like our friend Renomad is on the case though so don't worry Q: Hi there, Was this car owned by a man in Wales called MR.HOFAZ (OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT)?Was ADVERTISED IN RENAULT CLASSIC CAR CLUB. I am in Ireland and I am very interested,as I have a 15,16 18 also. 05-Sep-08 A: Hi there John, yes this was Omar Hofayz R17 he sold when he was moving abroad and it was in the Club magazine. I drove it back from south wales and knew then it was something special. I am so glad you are interested as I want her to go to a Renault collector and not be modded or pimped I think they call it. Also I am not far from the ferry at Fleetwood to get her back to Ireland.Regards Tony  I'm tempted myself as it looks fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RENOMAD Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 I dont think that I shall be able to afford it at the moment I'm afraid.She who shall remain nameless MADE me change her car about 3 weeks ago which made a rather large hole in the Renocoffers .Also I'm off Beaulieu next weekend, though If I cancel Beaulieu and burn her new car,I just might be able.
