1962 Renault Floride, Show Winner, Super Low Miles, Original Car, Stunning!! for sale
Current customer rating: (77 votes ) based onAn opportunity to own a very rare RHD Renault Floride .
This car has a very interesting history. Originally owned by an elderly couple the car was stored for over 35 years following the death of the husband. It was then acquired by a local Renault dealership who re commissioned it and was used as a showroom exhibit for a further 10 years'.As a result the odometer shows an incredible 16000 ml which I believe to be true based on its history and condition. When I acquired the vehicle in 2014 the last tax disc was in the windscreen was dated 1968 which suggests it was the last time it was on the road prior to storage.
This particular model was only produced for 3 years before being replaced by the Caravelle .The changes forced upon Renault by the American market due to the fact the name Floride sounded too much like Florida and a reluctance by customer s from other states to purchase a vehicle bearing that name resulted in poor sales. .Unfortunately styling changes resulted in the loss of the lovely sweeping roof line and side air intake chrome the later models losing some of its its beautiful styling.
The car has won a number of show awards including the prestigious Tatton Park classic car rally Best Rare Classic in 2014 and Best Rare Renault in 2015 as well as a number of local shows.
Much admired when shown the car is in superb condition as can be seen in the photos.I understand there are only 3 others known to the club and I believe this is the best in the country.
The underside shows no sign of corrosion as can be seen and never been welded. The interior is totally original and again in superb condition. It even wears factory original Pirelli whitewall tyres which show no signs of deteriation.
The car is finished in its original stunning Gold Renault paintwork .Very close inspection would reveal some small paint imperfections but they do not detract from its stunning condition.
In summary a unique once in a lifetime opportunity to own a very rare RHD classic
I'm always interested in rare or unusual vehicles so P/ x may be possible.
Vehicle can be inspected on a ramp if required.
