This is not a Renault 4! No, this car is more special than that, if such a thing is possible. The picture was sent by Bram who owns 'The Remarkable Renault 4' website (see my R4 links page), but don't be fooled by numbers. This is in fact one of only four examples of the Renault 3 still known to be in existence. The R3 was not so much a forerunner to the R4 as a simplified, economy version launched alongside its better known sibling.

As you can see, the car is currently being restored, and will be rebuilt to near its original specification. See Bram's site for more information on the Renault 3 and other specialist Renault 4 models.
