Renault 4L 1962 1/43, by Altaya


The Renault 4L (also called 'Quartelle') was a very special car, I can confirm, because I owned one.  The Renault 4L was the first front-wheel  drive car by Renault and was built between 1961 and 1994, the model car on the pictures is a 1962 version.  This 1962 version had to live with a 747cc engine with only 20HP.
Just like I did, most owners loved their Quatrelle for its practicality and simplicity.




The Renault 4 also played a role in the famous movie 'Trafic' by Jacques Tati.
Below you'll find a nice video by UPtv on the history of the Renault 4L.
