So now after a year of ownership I will recap and say: Damn thats a fine car to be driving :)

7000km, 15-18 km/l economy, 180£ in reconditioning the electrical compartment (danish winters are wet!), 40£ for a new charging relay (which apparently is rare because its a french model), 20£ for 5L valvoline 20W50 + a filter, 200£ for a complete undercarriage anti-rust treatment and Voila!
All parts bought at the renowned stony-renault dealer in Denmark; He has absolutely everything for these cars and know whats to be known about the technics.

Its now incredibly well running and can be trusted in all weather

Without charging it even ran more than 60km...

Now the next purchase will be 1 rim, 5 allweather tires, a tug (dont know the right word, but the thing for pulling a trailer etc), a roof-rack for vacations,

This weekend me and the car had the first go at a car-meeting (strictly renault) in the danish renault-veteran club. (Its my mom and her boyfriend sitting by my car ;) )

And innerwings are to be purchased, so that all the mud, salt, sand etc dont get thrown up in the seams of the body.
 
, a tug (dont know the right word, but the thing for pulling a trailer etc)

A towbar mate. She looks good. Hopefully getting my R4 back soon :(
 
I hope so too. Its hard being without wheels (even if its the nr2 or 3 car)
