"An incredibly nice and well-kept R 16"

Description

Since new, this Renault R 16 has been owned by two user of the same family. A man in Uppsala purchased the car in 1969 and operated it sporadically until 1976. Since then, it has been kept in a garage. When the son took over the car in the 1990s, it was given a thorough brake inspection and a complimentary anti-corrosion treatment. His son has used the Renault irregularly throughout the summer months, but he now believes that the car can be handed on to someone else who wants to care for and utilise one of Sweden's rare remaining Renault R16s.It is original, however the front wings have been changed and repainted. There are some minor dents and marks on the headliner from loading an auction find in the form of a kitchen sofa in the 1970s. Nothing that detracts from the overall impression or is obvious at first sight. There is also a scratch in the paint behind the left back door (see photo). Holes for speakers are drilled in the parcel shelf.
The car was completely overhauled about 5 years ago. New exhaust system and 
front wings. Brakes were renovated, including the calliper. Rust protection has been applied. Original bumpers, for example. The car is outfitted with an original radio. It comes with a large number of spare parts, both new and used, workshop manuals, spare parts catalogues, roof racks, snow chains, and other accessories, as seen in the images.

Facts about the model

Renault 16 presenterades 1965 och blev årets bil detta år. Renault presenterade för världen tidernas första kombi-kupé, eller halvkombi, som man säger idag. Modellen blev populär för att den var flexibel och praktisk. Man kunde fälla sätena i alla tänkbara konfigurationer, och använda bilen både som en praktisk kombi och en snygg sedan, därav namnet halvkombi. Fler biltillverkare tog efter konceptet.

Den sålde bra i hela Europa, hela 1,845,959 R16:s byggdes under modellens livstid. Den fick mycket beröm för sin komfortabla inredning och höga utrustningsnivà med tanke pà priset. Från början såldes R16 bara med en 1.5 L bensinmotor vilket senare toppades av en 1.6 liters maskin som gav bilen en topphastighet av 160 km/h.

Den högsta utrustningsnivån hette TX och hade funktioner som elektriska fönsterhissar och centrallås vilket hittills var helt okänt för den europeiska familjebilsmarknaden. När R16 upphörde med produktionen 1980, och blev ersatt av den mindre lyckade R20, var den fortfarande en av dom mest populära och mest sålda familjebilarna i Europa. Vid denna tid hade även de flesta andra europeiska biltillverkarna tagit idén med halvkombi och hade minst en sådan version i produktion.

1969 kostade En Renault R16 18 200 kr på gatan.
