Summary

[edit]
Description

I believe this one is a Manager, which was actually produced in Turkey in the early 90s, but I can't be sure. Wikipedia (of course always correct!) suggests the Manager had a 1.7 engine, and I'm pretty sure the missing sticker on this says 1.8? So perhaps it is a French one after all. If anyone could enlighten me, it would be much appreciated. Still, this is the first 21 I've seen in Greece, amongst endless Renault 19s, an example of which is seen parked behind this one! (a Europa spec, if you're interested) If this was in the UK, you'd probably think this is enthusiast owned, but 19s are so easy to spot, which is great because I love them!

I was very tempted to move the bin away from the front of this car, so I could get a decent picture of the front, but alas, people were watching me!

Saloons like this one are extremely rare in the UK, but the estate (Nevadas) are not so, but still they're not an easy spot. Nice to see what I believe are the original wheeltrims (at least on this side- the other side was on bare steels!)

Why do you think this car has such an odd lean to it? Normally, you would expect the front to be higher which would suggest a removed engine, but this one has a very low front and very high back! Why could this be?

Could be the reason for why it's probably abandoned.
