freo docks Posted 30, July 2010 Report Share Posted 30, July 2010 Hi, new here and looking to buy my first Renault scince a Gordini in the early 80's. Looking to buy a 225 F1 in the blue, no: 1029, manufactured in April 2006, sold in Australia in ?. I'm just a little confused over the model titles, and if this car is a R 26 or just an earlier model 225 F1. Any help info would be appreciated before I hand over any dough so I know exacty what I'm getting. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffyn Posted 31, July 2010 Report Share Posted 31, July 2010 It's the previous model you mention, the R26 was designated as 230, and only came in yellow and black here. The F1, as it's known in these parts is still a sweet little nut, and the black wheels look awesome. Happy hunting, and I hope we'll see you with a HUGE grin on your dial again soon Was your Gordini a 17 by any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dish Posted 31, July 2010 Report Share Posted 31, July 2010 April 2006, #1029, blue - that's definitely the 225 F1 We (as in my other half) have #1026, and they are a terrific car. Have a squiz at the forums as there is a lot of helpful info to be found. Freo - is that like in Fremantle? Welcome and all the best in your search. Cheers, Dish.

Adrian-Bstar Posted 31, July 2010 Report Share Posted 31, July 2010 I happened to meet the owner of this R26 yesterday. Owner of the Domino's Pizza in Kurri Kurri NSW. I'm up there a bit these days so happy to check this car out if anyone would like. Seems pretty keen to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
