I don’t speak much French and I read even less so I can’t tell you a whole lot about what this ad says, but I will do my best to translate: “Buy this little car/van because it’s the classiest camper you can get. Heck with your overbuilt Sprinters and your Tacomas with camper shells.”
Or, something like that I’m sure.
This rare beauty is a Renault 5 Le Car Van. Yeah, “Le Car Van.” Lol. Only 450 of these were ever built, by the French coachbuilder Heuliez. It’s a Renault 5 Le Car with the hatch slightly enlarged and replaced with plastic panels that incorporated that little bubble window. It came in 2 or 4 seat options, with each car van getting layered up with rich red shag carpet.
This one is an auction find, with an estimated value of 22k to 28k in Euros.
