1975 Renault 12 TL review from Australia and New Zealand
"My Lean Green Mean Machine!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Original engine overhauled a few years ago!
Usual wear and tear; tyres, brakes, tune ups, water pumps, hoses etc.
Not really anything major has gone wrong, I have had her for 25 years (my first car).
General comments?
This car is very sentimental to me! She tows a trailer when I go to work. I treat her with respect, she knows I will keep her!
My only complaint is lack of intermittent wiper washers!
