I then wanted to start cleaning the interior as it stinks of wood (the material not the smell of a boner) best quote ever! |

Brings back memories ;D My very first car was a white renault 11 1.7GTX with the horrible weber carb on it, one time it got stuck wide open, never knew the car went that fast hahaha. When i stopped somewhere, and shut off the engine, it always kept running a bit, and then turn itself of with a loud bang ;D Quite hilarious on a full parkingplace  Had a lot of fun though with it, especially the seats were awesome, i had the seats with the little wings on the side. |

My mum had one a few years ago, 1.4 automatic. It was comfy. Thats about it lmao. I thought it was ugly, heavy, and it was a pig to start. It never EVER started without cranking it for like 2 or 3 minuites. Apprently they wren't very good starters......  |

its true they were hard to start. i learnt to drive in one, a 1.4 gtl, seats were great, handling wasnt suited to the learner driver attempting a bend in the wrong gear though! twas enough to enduce sea sickness!!
tbh though it was a pretty reliable car. My dad owned it from new and the only thing that went on it was the heater matrix in 120k of driving.
in the end the car got sold to my best mate and he had it stolen off his drive. the car met a sticky end after the thiefs to nicked it found out just how badly the ren 11 corners!

Have a picture of my project - '85 R11 TXE Electronic. Going to take me a while though  Looks quite tidy in this picture but as we all know looks are often deceiving.  |
