The green paintwork and the chrome work are in beautiful condition.
The interior has been reupholstered and presents in good condition. Lighting and instruments are functional. The only minor remark is that the choke cable is not currently fitted.

The Renault R1062 belongs to the post-war 4CV series, the car that symbolized France’s automotive rebirth. Produced from 1947 to 1961, it became one of the country’s best-selling cars thanks to its efficiency, simplicity, and endearing design. Its rear-mounted engine and light weight make it nimble and economical to drive.
