The RENAULT 30 made its appearance in March 1975 at the same time as the Peugeot 604 of the same category and with the same engine. The bodyshell with a hatchback, which is designed by Gaston JUCHET, is identical to that of the Renault 20, except for the front lights (four round lights on the 30, two rectangular lights on the 20). It is distinguished mainly by its more powerful engines and by its superior equipment. Its suspension is with four independent wheels with coil springs, telescopic shock absorbers and superimposed triangles. This grand tourer did not enjoy the success it deserved (especially with the V6), mainly because of the oil crisis of 1974. However, the functional bodywork of the Renault 30 interested a part of the clientele willing to drive without ostentation in a car with a six-cylinder engine. The Renault 30 was so named because it was equipped with an engine of almost 3 liters. The example we present is a V6 that can reach 185 km/h for a weight of 1 380 kg. Equipped with many options including its electric sunroof and its new leather interior of great quality. It is equipped with TRX 190/65 HR 390 tires.
