mr-reno-139 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 well did you guess it correctly then ?have just bought this boxy little french number to save it from the crusher dont really need it , any offers? taxed 08 09 mot feb 09 all works 53.000 miles 1.4 5speed never been welded (or polished)has got pretty traffic lights/economy meter on dash as i got told off for letting my last R11 get raced thought you might all rush at once to rescue this 9 GTL instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRegieRitmo Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Would hate to see anything bad happen to this! I think an early 9 is my favourite 80's Renault (if the 18 is thought of as a 70's car) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel bickle Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Absolute worthless junk -wouldnt give it garage space. 18's a much much better...PS private joke.. doubleyeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r.welfare Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 How much are you thinking? I shouldn't buy anything else, but THAT interior is marvellous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlo Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Don't think I've ever seen a 9 with red trim before, thought they were usually grey or blue. Must be worth saving just for that. There's something that's very 'right' about a small 4 door saloon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I agree with Welf - it's gotta be worth something for that interior alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hmmmm. I'm really holding out for an early R11 TXE / TSE / Turbo but an early R9 would be an interesting project...If none of the other tat horders on the board save it then I would most likely be interested when I gat back from France in three weeks.

nigel bickle Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I should add that I've seen this car; its structurally sound, running gear looks Ok ,and the interior is good. Worth saving if the miserable git will sell it at a sensible price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr-reno-139 Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 hi people , i paid £25 for car plus £110 for road tax so any offers considered that will help me with cash flow considered two problems with car as have been using it all day yesterday 1 clock doesnt work !!!2 jumps out of 1st gear sometimes but fine if you keep hand on stick otherwise ok (had new clutch fitted 3 months ago) my son thinks he should race it but have resisted his offer so far to gary or any one else interested PM me i will give you my number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r.welfare Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Value! I'll let others with more burning desires go first, but if it's fate moves towards the oval, let me know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 As r.welf says, if it looks like getting bangered I'd definately have it. But with me going on holiday soon and it being at the 'wrong' end of the country and also not being an R11, if someone else wants a bit of Rennerlove then let them get on with it.If its still here in two and a bit weeks though...

r.welfare Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Make a "bootleg" R11 out of it using the tailgate from a Xantia or something, like that XJ-S that was on eBay recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r.welfare Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Glad this is (potentially) getting saved - I've had MOT-related shenanigans to deal with on the 405s so I don't have the wherewithal this month... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
