It was a nice replacement for our 1965 little black Renault....but that was like a "toy" car....push buttons....really easy to drive. Not sure if they even make Renaults anymore. It was French. Brand new $1,500.
The Renault replaced our dating car....a "57 Chevy"; he also had a "55 Chevy" that my dad gave him. Both kind of aqua in color; two tone.
We've been through so many cars the past 50 years............
but like FUMAR......now have a new Lincoln Town Car that hubby gifted himself with when he retired.......
Up in Vermont, cars are not really status symbols ......but our relatives down in N.J. all had the latest upscale autos like Buick Rivieras (back in the day); Cadilacs (back in the day) and now Lexus'..........and monster size S.U.V.'s.....

Bien sur they still make Renaults! We rented one in 2010. Nice sedan, and the dog liked the backseat.
