First R4L

[SeaKayaker]

Hello everyone!
I have just bought my first R4, a 1979 GTL, apparently, only 92,000 Kms from new!
I've just ordered a workshop manual from Amazon, and will start doing some servicing on it when it arrives. I can see a few visits to the car breakers will be worthwhile, to source a few goodies: a side window (catch missing), a door stop, a tow bar, etc.
From a new and happy Katrelle owner.

Hello and welcome!

At least you have breakers over there with R4s in!

Welcome to the forum!

Do post some pictures of your new 4 when you can - we like pictures

Will do!
As soon as I get time to take a camera out in the R4, I'll post a picture or 2.

I have been driving my new car for 2 weeks now: I love it!
Here is a picture taken this afternoon (showing the new sunroof, from a Twingo, fitted a few days ago), looking out over the etang de montady, in the South of France.
