 that looks good! where is it? I remember you saying about it before. Plastic bag stuffed in the vent :lol: classic 1916V Phase1 issue, better than spark plugs swimming in the wells. Silver is a rarely seen colour over here on a 1916V Phase1 |

Its actually a moonstone bluey colour. Its been sitting at 4 years in the same position. As I said the blokes in jail and the BIG scary señorita dosent want to part with it lol Ill try agin but may have to avoid coz I would think there probably 4+ years tax at 120+ euros a year still on it plus change of owner at 100+ euros  I will try again but I doubt if she will give it away or have paid the tax upto date  you never know |

only just seen your question! I got mine off www.retro-renault.com member who was kind enough to give me them. I recommend trying baby/olive oil rubbed in, a tip from another retro-renault member. |

hi folks! been a long time since i put anything up about the car. It's still my daily and fairly reliable. I'm a complete novice with bodywork but i had to sort out some rust. Here's the before/ during/ after pics.     Ta-da! Not perfect but ok for a 1st attempt. |

Looks ace. Not seen many in white certainly. My dad used to have a regular 5-door 19 and I always wanted him to get a 16v. Personal favourite has to be the 16v Ph2 Chamade, but those are possibly even rarer than the convertibles...

Such a shame. Can’t imagine there’s much call for the parts as these aren’t exactly common.
I had a R19 16v chamade about 20 years back. When it worked it was good but it was fundamentally flawed in many ways. After a ‘fairplay on the AA - stop calling us’ letter from the AA it was time to move it on.
I do miss the Oz Super T’s I had in it.

Boo, that's sad. These are really rare and it's a shame when one gets broken.
