R4 Meetings in Portugal & Spain 2002, parts 4-5
Shortly after publishing the previous enormous set of articles regarding R4 gatherings in Almeida, Lousal and Donostia during 2002 (star story number 4), another CD-ROM arrived through my letterbox with many further pictures and videos, sent once again by João Seabra. This one contains details of a trip around the Basque region of France and Spain, and of the very impressive 1st National Portuguese R4 meeting in Santarém at which nearly 40 spectacular quatrelles were present (a few early photos of which were sent by Andre Barbosa and feature in the 'your articles' section, number YA10).
These pictures arrived in October 2002, and I suspect it won't be the last major contribution from our fans in Portugal and Spain. They now hold regular meetings with each other in Lisbon and San Sebastián, and help with the organisation of larger Portuguese R4 meetings which are becoming increasingly popular. Click the links below to view the photos and videos from each event. You will also find several more pictures of Renault 4s that were found around France during the first meeting, by visiting the mystery cars page of the gallery (see numbers MC59-66).
