Nothing.General comments? This car is the most comfortable car I have ever driven - bar none. I was in the military when I owned this car and traveled all over Australia with it. A thousand kilometre day was not unusual and it never let me down once.The fuel tank filler beside the engine was a worry and a lot of garages in Australia at the time would not let you fill up for fear of fire.The Michelin X tyres would last for ever, but you prayed for no rain.The boot up front was enormous.I actually rallied my R10 and had a ton of fun. The trick was to place a bag of cement in the front to cure the under-steer.Did I love this car? You bet - I am currently trying to find a restorer in Australia for my retirement. 31st May 2005, 21:50 Hi Steven my name is David I'm not too sure how old this article is or if you are still looking for a Renault 10 but if you are I have arguably one of the best one owner low K's original one that I think you will find...if you are interested my e-mail is dfp.employment@stepstas.com.au.

The Renault was comfortable. However, the rest of the car was junk. Constant problems. The drove the car from upstate New York, the Albany area to Florida. We got down to Florida OK. On the return trip the carburetor fell off in the D.C. area. Terrible. I got rid of this car for a 1968 Mercury Cougar.

Most of that time we were living in Minnesota and Utah although there was a short stint with one of them in Southern California where I managed to sink one in a flash flood. Each of the cars were driven nearly 100,000 miles. Even the one that had been covered by water up to the headliner was towed back to the house flushed out and driven another two years in a daily commute of approximately 50 miles into downtown LA. I thought these cars were wonderful. In the dead of winter in 30 below I could get my car started when nobody else could. Often the little battery wouldn't even turn the car over, but with the hand crank and a shot of ether in the carburater, it would fire up every time. I have many fond memories of my R10's and am looking for a good southwest example to restore and enjoy in my retirement. If you know of any that you might think are available contact me at wppwrs@att.net. Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 15th Jan 2007, 18:21 I owned a 1970 R-10. It was extremely comfortable, but illustrated the French sense of humor like few other things. The gas tank placement was just one example. When they stopped importing them to the US, parts could only be found in salvage yards, and a frighteningly large number of the junkers were incinerated from the rear seat on back.Then there was the time that the emergency flasher switch broke and shorted out the entire electrical system.But the seats were extremely comfortable, and they did recline. Ah, those French... Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 25th Feb 2007, 16:55 My first car was a 1969 Renault 10. Dimples (as she was know, named due to some hail damage on her roof) was lovingly restored and sprayed PINK by my father. Dimple was given to me by my parents for my 18th birthday in 1988. She was one year older than me. The car was already 19 years old when I received her. I drove her for another 13 years until she was retired in 2001. It was rust which got Dimples in the end. No surprise really as she enjoyed 10 years living on the Sydney Harbour waterfront. She now has been converted into a rally buggy and races weekly around NSW, Australia. Dimples was the smoothest and most comfortable car I ever had the pleasure to drive and travel in. She 'ran on the smell of an oily rag' so cost nothing to run. A great little city car and good on long distances too. Together we made may journeys between Sydney, where I attended university and Orange, when my parents live. She flew over the Blue mountains between Sydney and Orange with ease. The only criticism, and it's not much of a one, is that highway speeds she was noisy. Hey, nobody is perfect. But the Renault 10 was pretty close. Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 24th Mar 2007, 15:50 Hi. I had a R10 1300 between 1974 and 1979 (BBD 858K registered in Northampton, UK in 1971. Just a brilliant car with loads of character and space. Took me all over Europe. Fully concur with the comments about having to weigh the front bonnet down - I had a spare wheel & tyre to keep mine steady on the road. Just loved the number plate jaw that revealed the spare wheel, the sliding rear windows, the tappety engine, and the petrol filler in the engine compartment! Problems I had included: rusting wings (rear), rusting bonnet edge, loose steering bolts, snapped gear stick mechanism to gearbox and rear handbrake problems. I crashed BBD and had her dismantled. The engine went to Bury Technical College in Lancashire and I sold all the bits off. I still have the number plates, the ignition key and one front indicator lens. I'd dearly love to have another, but they are few and far between in the UK. Rod. Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 2nd Jun 2007, 06:45 HiI live in North Carolina, USA. I love air cooled VW's, have had one since '95. I have since sold my air cooled VW, and have found a 1969 Renault 10, one owner, 44k orig. miles in a barn in northern Virginia. I have purchased this car and will be bringing it home soon. I have never seen this car before or seen one in a junk yard. Will I have a problem finding parts, exterior and engine? I am not sure if car runs, tires are dry rotted. Car has been sitting in this barn untouched since '83. This car appears to be in mint condition. If anyone reads this and knows of this car, please email; n2vws@hotmail.com. I am planning on restoring, and would like to know what I am getting in to. I would like to buy a repair manual for this particular year. Thank you for your time. Bill.

Great mielage.. about 40 mpg. don't recall any specific problems with it, but... I was in a highway accident and got pushed into the concrete median.. the car flipped over... 5 TIMES... as I held onto the wheel, and wound up upside down.. I opened the door and walked away!.. My friend was asleep in the shotgun seat fully reclined, and also walked away. We barely had a scratch. The car looked still intact, and I remember asking some truck drivers who stopped on the roadside, to help me overturn the car so I could drive home and worry about the repairs later.!! Amazing car!. ~ Steve from NYC.

Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 6th Sep 2007, 12:33 I owned a Renault R10, when I was in high school back in the 1970s and it was a time when I could hardly afford a new tire for the car. I cut a lot of grass doing yard work in order to maintain the car. My family sold the car when I joined the US Army. I retired after 24 years. Well now I can afford to Own one and I do. The Renault R-10 is my passion the good memories/stories of the car are endless. The Renault R-10 had its issues with overheating problems because the technically advance cooling system for its time, was misunderstood in the USA by lack of knowledge of a vacuum tight& expansion bottle system. No VW bug could match its comfortable seats and smooth ride over any Bumps. sadly sales dropped in the US market, but not in Europe. I have driven a few model.

I drove hundreds of Km's in it at weekends and it never let me down. Until it had been repaired after an idiot ran up the back of it and the repairer 'forgot' to fill the radiator :((( Doing 95mph down a country road, I blew the rings and melted the side of one piston! Still it got me home and I have never forgotten it. It was the best car I ever had, and if I could get another one, I won't miss the opportunity.

I loved the car, despite the rust from Ohio's salty roads. My sister couldn't drive a stick, though, and when she burned out my second transmission, I couldn't afford to keep the car alive. I would LOVE to own one, but don't have the patience to restore. If anyone knows of a true "driver", I have a garage waiting to give it a home. I'd buy a good one in a heartbeat.

It was the just released square headlight Renault 10, but because I'd never heard of oversteer and total inexperience, the car only lasted intact for a few months before myself and a mate, end for ended this lovely car a number of times, but we both walked away unscathed!After the car was repaired and I learnt to drive it, we went on to develop a wonderful relationship. A truly unique car; full of character and really demanding respect at all times, they don't suffer fools lightly, so beware!Since then I've owned probably over 100 cars of all makes and models; never let it be said I'm bias, but I still have a favorite in my shed; a powder blue Renault 10 that still puts a smile on my dial every time I drive her. Not a real safe car these days, but never the less I still leave the new Mercedes and Subaru at home, and go up the coast in the old Reno. 130K's an hour in a 10 is a joy to behold, viva la difference. Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this comment Vote: 17th May 2008, 18:38 Bought an R-10 in 1968, loved the ride and handling, but hated the difficulty starting in wet conditions in upstate NY. One winter morning had to call a mechanic to get started and he unfortunately had me turn the ignition while the coil lead was disconnected to see if the current jumped... it jumped alright - smoke poured out of all the interior ports as all the insulation burned off the wiring. Mechanic also jumped - into his truck and took off like a bat out of hell. Lots of aggravating problems with this car over the next five years, but still have fond memories of driving it around when I was an impoverished college student.
