Photos of French cars at the French Riviera

This is a collection of photos that I took during my two week vacation in Cannes on the French riviera.

This album is still under work so come back in a couple of days, then I have added more pictures.

The cars of the Riviera is cars that you only can find in a very mild climate, cars like this is never seen in Sweden.
The pink car is a modified Renault 6 (series 1 pre 1974) it has been converted like the Renault 4 "Plein air".
The beige car is a Renault Rodeo, it is a Renault 4 chassie with a open twoseated pickup coach made of plastic, it was built until 1980.
The brown/beige car is a Renault 5 Rodeo the precessor of the Rodeo based on Renault 4.
The Renault 5 Rodeo is based on Renault 5 components but it is still built on the Renault 4 floorpan.

There are not many older cars to be found at the French riviera and the cars that are older than ten years are always very dented and scratched by parking accidents.
But if you keep your eyes open you can find a few cars that is in perfect condition eaven if they are over 30 tears old, and it is theese cars I want to show here.
The golden car is Renault 8 this model was produced between 1962 and 1973.
The white car is a Renault 6 (post 1974), it was a Renault 4 with stronger engine and better brakes with a coach styled with impressions from Renault 16.
Renault 6 was produced between 1968 and 1980 with a facelift in 1974 with a new grille and square headlights. The second golen car is a Renault 12 (post 1976) it was produced between 1969 and 1980 but it has been built as Dacia in Romania until this year.
The Renault 4 was seen outside a car museum, this car was used in the Paris-Dakar race.
