  Renault 4CV (1947 - 1961) (Classics Reviews)
  The Renault 4CV is as much a french icon as the Citroen 2CV - and it's certainly as important, even if its rear-engined layout eventually proved to be an engineering dead-end. In its 14-year production run, more than one million 4CVs were built, which significantly assisted the French working
• 
  Renault Fregate (1951 - 1960) (Classics Reviews)

  Renault 8 (1962 - 1972) (Classics Reviews)
  The Renault 8 was introduced in June 1962, and was closely related to the Dauphine. It shared the older car's rear-engined layout and underpinnings - and the big giveaway to the R8's origins were that despite being longer than the Dauphine, it shared the same 2270mm wheelbase. Although it seems

• 
  Renault 12 (1969 - 1980) (Classics Reviews)
  The Renault 12 was a catch-all replacement for the company's mid-sized range of saloons; but most notably the rear engined R10 - which by the late 1960s was looking rather out of step with the opposition. AIt was designed to bridge the gap between the R8 and the R16, and compete against
