I love the text of these ads, especially the " We all know how the French are inclined to exaggerate "... :)))) I miss this era too, not this car. :)

Renault 14 .. funny 70ies advertising.

Ahhh, only the French can do it like this Nice comparison. Well explained. I really like this interior, feels very cosy and warm. It reminds me of some cars during my childhood. I don't think I ever had a drive in the Renault 14 though :-( Trying to sell ...  

I miss the cars of this era ...

.. off course not this R14 to be honest. But the R5 of those days was and is a true icon. Soon I will buy my own R5 electric, I will invite you for a testdrive my friend ;-) Bim

A funny, but bygone era.

Good French advertising takes an oblique perspective and boldly follows through. Who remembers “Du Pain, Du Vin e Du Boursin”? Or some of the classic Orangina ads?

A nightmare

From what i know it was not a good Renault. Due to a quick rust process the car was a nightmare. I never knew who had one, so it was a rare car on the roads. The 12 was more strong, so i think the 14 was not tested good enough before it was put on the mar... 

Yes the 14 was a disaster indeed !

My wife bought a brand-new Alfa GTV 6 back in the 70ies and it started to rust after one year .. . Actually I think they already started rusting in the showroom , heck no, you could already see the rust in the catalogue

Lancia Beta

I bought a new one from a dealer and by the time I got it home it had rusted to pieces!
