Renault Van Books - History and Models

La Renault Estafette de mon père

The Estafette was part of the French landscape for more than twenty years. The streets of our cities were full of them; they crisscrossed our countryside. Proof of its importance, it has even - almost - entered our common language. Who, in fact, has never spoken of the Gendarmerie Estafette or the baker's Estafette?

Few people remember its long history. Even fewer are those who know the revolution that presided over its birth in what was still called the Régie Renault: it was in fact the brand's first front-wheel drive...
We will share this story with you in this book: prototypes, developments, special versions and even... miniatures! Nothing is forgotten. It's the least we can do for one of the most famous vans in France.
