Seller's comments about 1965' Renault Estafette
It is the French manufacturer "Star" (today Autostar), a Breton manufacture, which equipped this Renault Estafette Alouette "12 windows" Raised from January 1965 as a motorhome for 2 people and on specific order.
This is type R2132A.
In their catalog it is called "Studio Car".
Star chose this luxury Alouette and raised version because it allows you to stand upright.
The vehicle offers a 2-seater bed, a storage kitchen unit with a sink and a 2-burner stove, a folding table and a wardrobe whose door serves as a separation from the driving position in the evening.
The interior is entirely lined with wood and insulated at the ceiling and laterally.
It includes the STANDARD equipment of the time (invoiced in 1970 = 2950 Francs)
and equipment on OPTIONS:
– a passenger side door judiciously transformed into a magazine or road map holder,
– insulation of the roof with glass wool and wood lining mounted on hoops
– roof vent (skylight) and ventilation opening above the dashboard.
The vehicle is equipped with 6 fixed side windows as well as a glass rear hatch and a glass side access door, all giving great interior brightness as well as a panoramic view on all sides.
The fiberglass composite roof provides good thermal insulation in all seasons.
The vehicle presented for sale is a 3rd hand and was first registered in January 1965.
Its first owner was a Renault Esso agent in the Paris region who kept it for 2 years.
Then the courier was sold to an air traffic officer at Orly.
He used it for his holidays until 1989 and was stored away.
It was in 2000 that it briefly saw the light of day again following its purchase by its 3rd owner, collector from Drôme in the south of France.
This one has parked it in a garage for 23 years until now.
This courier is therefore looking for a new owner who can give it a good restoration and thus restore all its elegance and youth of yesteryear.
It displays "70898 kms" on its original odometer.
She had a veil of painting during her life.
The upholstery and its interior are clean.
The new registration document is present and in order.
It seats 8 people.
There is no technical inspection because the vehicle is not running.
ATTENTION ! The bases show corrosion on the crossmember under the side door.
The mechanics seem to be blocked and therefore need to be redone.
The tires, clutch and exhaust had just been changed shortly before it was immobilized.
It is a vehicle worth restoring because it is rare in this version and there are very few survivors in the world.
Range model equivalent to the VW combi ...
The vehicle is to be taken on a trailer in the south of France department Vaucluse 84.
Transport possible in the UK or other European country or USA by professional carrier at your expense.
A French vehicle importer friend from Warminster can take care of the import.
