1989 Renault 11 TSE review from Israel

The clutch is extremely hard and a lot of strength is needed to use it.

The back window literally fell into the door one day. Cost about 40 Euros to fix.

The seats are a mess. It hurts when you sit for a long time, and the previous owner put seat covers because the original trim disintegrated completely.

One of the rubber parts that hold the engine to the car was torn and had to be replaced.

The mileage counter does not work, so I am guessing how much I drove it, but it says I drove it for about 3 kilometres this last year.

The previous owner never cleaned the carburetor, since she bought it, so it had no power, and the fuel consumption was terrible. A quick cleaning and about a 100 Euros fixed that problem.

The reverse lights didn't work when I bought it, and it cost about 15 Euros to change something, I'm not exactly sure what.

The windshield sprinklers don't work, and I can't get anyone that can sell me used ones.

I bought it for about 800 Quids, or 1500 Euros, and it was one of the best buys I could have made.

I like the car, and although the ride is not remarkable, the power isn't stunning, and it's pretty ugly, It's impossible to find a car that gives you so much for so less (At least in Israel).
