Beschreibung
Renault Avantime Privilege 3. 0 V6, car number 145 of around 450 sold in the UK of a total production run of 8, 557.
It has the desirable 3. 0 litre 24-valve V6 petrol engine, producing 210 HP at 6, 600 rpm with 285 Nm torque at 400 rpm with a smooth automatic gearbox.
The car was built for Renault by Matra based on the galvanized sub-frame of the Renault Espace.
An advanced design, this stand-out, luxurious vehicle includes many safety features and advanced engineering. Highlights included unique double-hinged pillarless doors allowing easy access to the front and rear seats even when tightly parked, the world's largest opening glass sunroof at the, time featuring strengthened heat-reflective tinted glass and theatre seating.
Unique to the Avantime is the ‘Grande Aire’ feature, where a single switch will lower all of the car windows and fully open the roof to provide 'wind in the hair' motoring.
This Avantime V6 'Privilege' model was specified in metallic 'Nocturne' – a deep purple paint - with silver aluminium roof rails, with sable leather upholstery and interior.
In my ownership, the car has been serviced annually - rather than every two years as suggested by Renault - the current MOT expires on 30/ 06/ 2020.
The leather seats are showing signs of their age but they are not cracked or torn.
