Not sure what the red one is furthest left but the 19 16v 5 door was a rare car. Most were 3 doors or chamade's.

The Renault 21 Hatchback converted with a 21 Turbo lump?

Or the Espace is running something special?

Thank you Alpine Tom, This car was missing from the A610 list, looks like the current owner has had it since 1999. Private plates in the past means the current plate is not the original one form the day of registration. I have been working for a few years now, trying to locate all the A610 in the UK.

Martin you are good it is a Quadra but can you tell everyone what is special about it. What is different about this car over the turbo. Also do you know just how rare this car is?

Would that be a 12 Valve TXI Quadra? The 21 Turbo has a 8 Valve engine.

I'm in contact or was with the chap that kind of Gazumped you Martin. I seem to remember there was a right palaver on ownership and getting it out of it's place of rest. I seem to recall it sold for around £4k on ebay?

Anyway he's in the Nottingham area I think and owns a garage (not Clee). He's putting a turbo engine in it or turboing the original and his name is also Martin to create even more confusion....Of course knowing my memory issues its probably in Glasgow and his name is Fred. Either way it's still in the UK :up


Ok cheers, well send over his details, be a kindred soul now :-)

Cheers,
Martin

since when have you become such a mine of information on 21's Miles?
never thought I would want a list but now find myself needing one just to remind me: Clio V6 230, 5 gt turbo, 5 Gordini turbo, Megane RS 300 Trophy.
