David Wilkins<p>I thought it would be interesting to do a few more pioneering hatchbacks, so today we’re looking at the Renault.4, which was first introduced in 1961. Some people say this is a small estate rather than a hatchback; I think it can be argued either way. I snapped this late model at the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/BremenClassicMotorShow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BremenClassicMotorShow</span></a> in 2014. I think the modern plastic exterior trim detracts somewhat from the R4’s original look.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Renault" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Renault</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdCarMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>davidsdailycar</span></a></p>
