Price: US $4,999.00

Description:

This small front-wheel-drive sedan offers a fairly spacious bodywork powered by a small engine. It has a tailgate , a foldable and easily removable rear seat and a gear lever on the dashboard.
It takes all the mechanical elements of the Renault 4 (suspension by torsion bars and gearbox in front of the engine) and adds refinements such as wider windshield , but does not keep the vents that allowed on the Renault 4 d ' get a ventilation of the vehicle by depression.
For Renault, it was intended to be a small Renault 16 , hence its line similar to the exception of the side edges of the roof. However, in terms of mechanics, the Renault 6 is much closer to the Renault 4 than the Renault 16. The Renault 6 is an evolution of the Renault 4 which it takes the essential in distinguishing itself by the aesthetics and habitability. In this sense, the Renault 6 is to the Renault 4 what the Dyane was to the Citroën 2 CV , or what the Renault 10 was compared to the Renault 8.
From October 1970, the original version will be supplanted by the new Renault 6 TL. Thanks to its 6 HP engine, the car is more comfortable on the road with a maximum speed that goes from 120 km / h to 135 km / h.
In Spain, the Fasa-Renault 6 has from the beginning a Cléon-Fonte engine of 956 cm 3 .
The direction of rotation of the Billancourt engine is anti-clockwise (distribution side), while the Cléon-Fonte engine rotates clockwise, to obtain the same direction of rotation to the wheels, the differential of the gearbox has returned to the versions with the Cleon-Cast Iron Engine.
The Renault 6 is a car whose mechanics are relatively reliable and economical. Its conservation problem is related to the corrosion that compromises the integrity of the different parts of the sheet metal: tip of the front fenders, outline of the windshield , rear wheel arches ...
The Renault 6 has seduced the customer more by its practical side than by its aesthetics. It has never aroused admiration or lust, or even today in the collection market, despite its robustness.
