1986 Renault 4 | Morda, Shropshire

A 1986 Renault 4, the French hatchback Renault pitched as a blue jeans car for work and leisure alike. Its upright body, one-piece tailgate and dash-mounted gear lever give it a plain, practical look that people still warm to. It also appears in Jacques Tati's Trafic. This car is red with a grey interior, a simple pairing that stands out clearly against stone walls or green fields. The 1108cc engine drives the front wheels, and the car seats four. Its tall, boxy body gives a camera plenty of glass and height to work with. Film and television work gets a car whose shape belongs on French and British sets of the 1970s and 1980s. Photography and fashion shoots can use the red bodywork as a bold colour accent, and events can use its friendly, upright shape. It also suits a wedding or a personal hire. The car is based in Morda, Shropshire.
