Hi all,
I just saw an interesting Renault 4. It was imported from france. The tax book says its a 1982 845cc but its an 1100cc. Its got the rearview mirror sticking out of the dash and the hinges for the doors are on the outside. Its also an older dash board than my 1983 tl. The levers for the lights and stuff are chrome and theres a switch on the left for the wipers.
It also has nice chrome bumpers but a weird "non-renault" i think, front grill with foglights in it. It also has alloy wheels but the spare is a standard r4 with three holes in it.
Im in a bit of a dilemma as to how much its worth. The chassis and body all seems really good. It drives fine. Theres 157000 km on the clock. but the front left wing is really dented in and the inner wing on the right is rusted badly at the front. Also the front right door is badly dented and broken off its bottom hinge. Also the steering wheel can be wobbled from left to right. It hasnt been registered here so i guess ill have to pay import duty or VRT and it has no NCT.
Its got bigger seats with headrests from another car too. Hmm pros and cons and etc....
Any suggestions as to what this thing could be valued at roughly? Im only interested cause the chassis seems in such good nic and i have a gtl with a dud chassis to use for parts. anyone? Thanks
