Would love to know what happened to the Saltash Car Auctions Renault 14TS. Here's another pic of it:

Saw it there on two occasions last year.

:arrow:

 

Can anybody vouch for what happened to that 14 TS sat at the auction house in Saltash. Would be cool if somebody on here ended up with it!

Well I keep checking to see if the 14TS is actually in my garage, but it's not :cry::cry::cry::cry: This TS is also in a great Renault colour - Sea Mist - or Sea Green as it was known before 1980.

 

The 14 was absolute crap and in the eyes of some, not a "real" Renault due to the Peugeot engine - However my first car was a W plate TS in gold - OVT 433 W wouldn't even have made it as far as the recycling bin due to rot. I genuinely loved that car and have great affection for the 14.

 

I keep watching French Ebay and waiting for one, preferably owned by someone capable of understanding my useless French and who lives next to the port at Calais or Caen :!:

 

Oh yes - and who's willing to part with it for next to sod-all :wink:

Hopefully the above R14 is a different example to this one :(

Also have a bit of a thing for the real EARLY Sterling....You know....Usually two-tone, and before they fitted the chrome grille & rounded it off a bit....Can't find one of those for sale anywhere....My boss about 20 years ago had one....Gold/Grey and fully loaded....Helluva car! :D

2.6? PAH!OK, so it is frugal and nearly as fast as the 'real deal'...But you'd just feel cheated every time you started it up without that big burbly V8 rumbling away...... Sterling? I think they are all gone aren't they? Even the pub-landlord would HAVE to have the later roundier one!

Where's MikeD? He's got one of those Lancer's. As I understand it they are amazingly dreary! Get it at once."Not EVO / FQ400 / 4wd / Rally" etc.

I dunno....I've had experience of SD1s in 4cyl, 6cyl, V8, and Diesel forms....I loved them all....Maybe it's because I was young & impressionable back then, but even when I drove the 2000 it felt SPECIAL to me....It just looked a bit funny without the front spoiler! :D

Baz, I'm with you on the early Sterling thing, or maybe an 825i for less weight/more speed.I found a taxless 827SLi on an L-plate a couple of weeks back outside a KFC in Portsmouth...next to the Honda dealer, maybe it was a trade-in. Looked a tidy old bus and a manual too. Thought about leaving a note on the 'screen but didn't, it had gone last time I looked :(

Sold as a "Roller" over here IIRC....Is that a crew cab pick-up Merc G-series (or French equivalent....Peugeot?) in the background? :shock: ....

Nice late R20....Is it really a TS though? Diameter of the wheels suggests TL spec to me....But then, the TL wasn't 2-litre....Oh, I dunno! :? ....

That Bertone is a bit confusing... 1000? 1200? But it is definitely le sex! Love the Sympa too, should try to trade my Starlet for something like that...

Peugeot did actually do a version of the G-Wagen. I think it was built exclusively for the armed forces, I don't think I've ever seen a civilian one. Not sure if that is one though - could be an Auverland or even a late UMM?

It's not good at the moment, granted.But I can really see the potential in it.

This looks like great summer fun! Tax and MOT until April 2008, full length sunroof, mad stripey seats. I'd absolutely love to cheaply tidy this up (self-refurbish the steels, a good clean, bit of paint) and keep it bog standard.

Man, what a sleeper you'd get if you put the running gear into a 1500 Estate body and kept the externals bog-stock. Or go back to a Humber Sceptre external setup on that shell, if there's been mucho fabrication to get everything to fit thus far.

Ooh, longitudinal engine - I guess this is the fabled RWD Stellar then? :D I really fancy a punt at that, but it's a bit far away.

Stellars are always RWD, I reckon that one looks alright. The really fabled RWD Hyundai would be the Pony, especially in pre-facelift guise with twin round lights.

 

Perhaps the forthcoming free listing weekend (as advised by Mr_Bo11ox on R-R) will throw one up. Bound to be some choice pickings - watch out for a certain red Accord!
