Description
1976 Renault 16 Automatic, 35000 miles only. Very good condition. Originally owned by a bank manager in Stockport and stored for about 40 years by his widow with 23, 000 miles on the clock. The owner before me then carried out extensive work including a partial respray to return the car to the road about five years ago. Bodywork excellent and waxoyled last year. Mechanically very good, with the head gasket done last year by local French classic specialist. The interior is very smart apart from one small tear in the drivers seat. The R16 is not fast but is very stylish, reliable and the most comfortable car that I have ever owned. Only minor issues are a slow leak from one of the rear brake cylinders (if I haven't fixed this before the sale, new shoes and cylinders for both sides worth £250 will be included with the car) and a dent in the rear bumper. Super-helpful club and spares easily available from the Netherlands. There is a video of the previous owner driving it round Welwyn on You Tube. Only selling to buy a two stroke Saab.
