In its centenary year Renault was the fifth best selling car in Britain. Its Megane Scenic was the 1997 Car of the Year, and the new Clio is expected to continue this success. Renault has also been a powerful presence in the Formula 1 and the British Touring Car championships. This book provides Renault's full story, from the pioneering days when Louis Renault's primitive voiture impressed his friends by climbing the hilly Paris streets, right up to recent models.

Detailed yet empty?!,

This review is from: The Renault File: All Models Since 1898 (An Eric Dymock Motor Book) (Hardcover)
Book goes over all the models w/ 1 page per model type. Thin book w/ small pages (4-5" tall). The problem is that the author gives a VERY brief account of the car & then moves on. Not enough room on the page probably (or not enough research done). Sometimes even mixing in 2-3 models/trims per page. Also noticed some info was missing, ie 0-62 in ... nothing then puts the weight or gas mileage.Great book as far as reviving memories of the Renault Family, some interesting figures but definitly not a History book on the brand. Tips to author (if interested): Keep the style (1 page per model), make bigger pages with more info, facts.. even anecdotes & tales (trims, interior, options, tires, race victories & competitors). All color pictures please & more than just 1 pic per car.

This review is from: The Renault File: All Models Since 1898 (An Eric Dymock Motor Book) (Hardcover)
A very well researched book with plenty of drawings/photographs of the vehicles. It's a little dated now and I believe that a newer edition covering the newer models in some detail is overdue.Renault is reaching new highs in popularity both here in Australia and Europe so I believe that a new version of the marque will sell well.
