Earlier this year, PetrolBlog spent a disturbing amount of time sifting through data on the number left to identify the rarest French cars on the roads of Britain for playback It is heartbreaking for metal fans french 1970s, 80s and 90s.
Just where are they all of course, that art a rhetorical question, with most either by showing rust or discarded when deemed economically irreparable.
The French car Hotlist after just added to the agony when he identified the rarest Citroën cars with a distinct whiff of PetrolBloggyness.
As promised, we now turn our attention to Renault and demand, we provided the number of cars registered in SORN on the road by the DVLA advantage if you can.
Remember, the information is as good as the data provided and we've only included Renaults PetrolBloggy 1970, 1980 and 1990 is also interesting to note that new DVLA data was supplied from the original post, with the figures used now and including Q1 2014 Enjoy if you can.
22 Renault 5 left 1,803 Number Number SORN 2240.
Since more than five million of Renault 5s were produced, it is not surprising to see a healthy number of 5 seconds remaining in the UK.
To be honest, the Renault 5 is not really on the critical list, but we had to include, if only to use this wonderfully evocative picture of a MK1 C or something beautiful.
Renault 21 19 834 Number Number left SORN 876.
Again, the Renault 19 Chamade and t can be classified as critical, but given the low values on the used car market and the nature of all outdated, but the performance models, we leave this here as a marker.
Come this time next year, when the number has decreased dramatically.
20 Renault Vel Satis left Number 638 116 Number SORN.
Renault Vel Satis has never been a big seller in the UK, but a loyal and almost cult status must ensure that many cars survive.
Read Oliver M. Hammond Vel Satis Real World Review here.
19 Renault Safrane left Number 370 145 Number SORN.
In the UK, the big French cars are about as popular as a wasp at a picnic So while 370 may seem healthy enough, diving deeper into the data reveals that many engines and levels of finish are down to single digits.
Only Safrane RXE 2 Executive dollars Automatic 5 liters trend, with as many as 171 still on the road today.
18 Renault Avantime left Number 272 Number SORN 65.
Ah, the Renault Avantime Much has been written about his brilliance on these pages here.
A future classic, with relatively strong values, hope to ensure guaranteed many of them survive Our children need to know that the French were able to at the millennium.
17 Renault 4 Number 252 Number left SORN 236.
So, the Renault 4 was practical and usable, many cars still in active service in France today, mind you, with over eight million produced cars, spare parts should never be an issue.
Production continued until 1993, ending one of the most successful cars ever French Just watch this Perfection.
Renault 21 16 223 Number Number left SORN 445.
Surprisingly, the number of Renault 21s on the highway is almost double the number of cars on the road.
Not surprisingly, this includes a healthy number of 21 Quadras currently untaxed, pending the attention owners are either save or build the courage to carry out essential repairs.
Renault 9 15 Number 128 Number left SORN 46.
The Shatchback version of the Renault 11, a beautiful piece of work by Robert Opron.
Renault 9 is a former European Car of the Year, don t you know.
14 Renault A610 GTA left numeral 104 Number SORN 190.
We wouldn t expect to see the number fall much further.
Renault 13 11 Number 102 Number left SORN 190.
The Renault 11 is no stranger to PetrolBlog with the electronics contained on the site there are several moons.
And the picture provided by a player in Hungary is still one of the best we have seen.
Renault 12 25 Number 88 Number SORN 207 left.
Another offer of Robert Opron, with an interior style by none other than Marcello Gandini Yes, glory Lamborghini Countach that, ahem, had only one windshield wiper.
OK, back on topic, we really desperately want a Renault 25 Have you seen inside.
11 Renault 16 left Number 65 Number 18 SORN.
Renault 16 encapsulates everything we love about French cars, combining acres of space, practical hatchback and levels of driving comfort to shame even a new Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Of course, we all want the performance 16TX version, but kill more rust, just a chance to own a 16 would be enough.
Renault 10 12 64 Number Number left SORN 46.
A Renault 12 Gordini words aren t required here.
This is simply one of the coolest pictures of one of the coolest cars in the world never quite possibly.
Renault 9 15 17 57 Number Number left SORN 23.
rear quarters BLADES tinted yellow quad headlights, French plates and design of the front bumper more interesting than you'll ever have.
As we have said, the Renault 8 is essentially born too long to appear on PetrolBlog, but is included for two reasons.
First, production slipped in the 1970s and secondly, and perhaps more importantly, we can use again this picture.
Renault 7 20 30 36 Number Number left SORN 24.
Only 36 of these remain, the 20 represents the lion's share, with 27 survivors.
Of all the cars presented here, it is the Renault 18 we fear most Does anyone care enough to save him.
You could have owned a Cavalier or Cortina But for the rear spoiler and alloy wheel design of the Turbo model shown above, you really should have bought 18.
5th October 1100 Renault left Number 27 Number 9 SORN.
For all practical purposes, it was a special run-out, designed to breathe new life into the aging Renault 8.
It is now a classic, so we do not expect the number to fall much further.
Renault 6 April 25 left Number 25 Number 9 SORN.
Yet it is the poor who has the last laugh with Prince trouble breathing because he faces a struggle for survival.
3rd Renault Sport Spider left Number 24 Number 35 SORN.
British buyers were treated to a windshield that was nice.
Renault Fuego 2nd left Number 18 Number 53 SORN.
Oh, poor Renault Fuego In French, Fuego translates the French Ford Capri Not really, he did.
But Fuego faces only a battle for survival If you own all the values of the Ford Capri continue to rise, it does a scrap donation please.
So we're left with the Renault 14 pear There are just a dozen cars left the UK Ask yourself, when you saw one.
It was never really loved, which is a shame, because it offered enough space for five adults and their luggage It also introduced a provision of innovative rear seats could be folded to provide levels of nearby cars the estate of the now almost extinct capacity.
All data provided by the number of left if you know of any inaccuracies, please let us know then Peugeot.
All Renault pictures, except for the Renault 10 and 11 Charles01 electronic Ati04.
The near me of Renault SA specialist who restored a pristine 12 in front, I will not connect well, not having charged my wife 150 to close the sunroof on its Megane when the engine finally got a blown new engine equipped for under $ 100.
One of the teachers at my school had a GTA and I have always wondered where she found the money I'd love a Avantime and Vel Satis, although 4 is rather tempting and I always had a weakness for the Fire.
The French Renault Hotlist, French, critical list.
