LHD Renault 4 F4 Van

Blimey - anyone looking for a F4 van who can cope with LHD might want to click the buy it now button. Nearly clicked it myself but realised in the nick of time I don't need any more Renaults.

Very pretty, but have I noticed some rot in the rear chassis leg or is that an optical illusion?

 

[malcolm]

Suppose it could be either. Probably better to view the thing before buying it rather than rely on guess work and a great big welder like I do.

Good grief! :eek:

That sounded a bit ominous. What did you spot? And was it serious?

 

[nicky4tl]

good grief? another to your collection? its time to set up a self help thread on this forum

 

[nicky4tl]

Am i being totally daft by the way or are there 2 airfilters in that van?

aha: that would be the sahara air filter. essential

 

[Bluebell]

Yes, that would be quite good for sunny Leeds. And the siren sounds pretty cool too.

The good grief was a reference to your growing collection. Aren't you supposed to be moving country? Looks like you have the furryitus bad.

The van looks extremely good from the photos. You can still see the seam line on the rear suspension mount and the double skinned areas look flat so signs are it'll be a good one.

Sounds like the very cool rough and dirty road spec that was never really sold in Europe. Second air cleaner might be a cyclone type. If you decide you don't want it....

Phew! Thanks malcolm. Yes, we are moving country so it's just what we need in France. I'll call in at deepest Bedfordshire when I fetch it and you can have a look.

Nicky4tl, I'll let you know when we're starting the R4 anonymous meetings. This addiction can't go on. Mr B says we can't fit any more in the garage. But I haven't got one of each colour yet. A blue plein air might go nicely... :wink:

I just liked the chrome and the registration number!
