doubleyeller Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 It had to happen one day folks - and here it is, a Renault 30 roffle @ £8.50 a ticket! Every panel is rusty, the rear doors have gone at the bottom, the rear valance is in a bad way. However a new set of brake pipes front to back and fresh rubber would see it safely back on the road imo. Certainly she starts and drives fine, although she's gonna need trailering away! Car is in Shipley, West Yorkshire. Be a crying shame if this was scrapped 6 months short of it's MOT exemption for life, everybody who is anybody or who is trying to be somebody pick a number!

mk2_craig Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Indescribably cool, except for the horn which looks lame. Hope this gets snapped up STAT doubleyeller 1
doubleyeller Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Can I collect it in 6 months then drive it home? No - it needs gone,and anyway, no brakes lol!
dougiefourspeed Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Now there’s nice. Whoever buys this will have a sure-fire winners chariot in on their hands. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk doubleyeller 1
djoptix Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Hmm, this is a Renault V6 auto. And my Espace is a V6 auto. Therefore the 250bhp drivetrain should drop straight in, yes? And the doovla would never know, therefore I'd still get the MOT exemption. Boom! somewhatfoolish, Junkman and doubleyeller 3

Bren Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Well worth saving. French + V6 + auto = abject misery and bankcruptcy. You know you want to.... doubleyeller, mk2_craig and Royale80 3
doubleyeller Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Well worth saving. French + V6 + auto = abject misery and bankcruptcy. You know you want to.... I wish I could, but I can't so hopefully someone on here will come to the rescue!
Royale80 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 One of my dream cars. They look so "right" from the front. Remember my friends father buying a T reg green 30TX for £4000 in about 1980/81.
doubleyeller Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 I remember a neighbour had one in the 1990s, and it took 4 strong men to push it! DSdriver and Junkman 2

wuvvum Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Are the tyres on this some obscure size that is now unobtainium? I've been looking at tyre prices for the 164 (the tyres have plenty of tread but are getting a little old) and they are £££££££.
doubleyeller Posted October 28, 2017 Author Posted October 28, 2017 Are the tyres on this some obscure size that is now unobtainium? I've been looking at tyre prices for the 164 (the tyres have plenty of tread but are getting a little old) and they are £££££££.No, the tyres are imperial, and about £35 each. Not the sort of tyre that is kept in stock at many fast fit places, but still readily available from black circles and the like.
nigel bickle Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 I've an immaculate set of reconditioned alloys and new unused tyres for this, if needed/ wanted. Good luck with the sale Royale80 1
