"Chassis number: VF8DE0T0625059223 Rare model
New Youngtimer
French title

Rare are the mass-produced vehicles that are considered as collectors before the end of their production. In the case of a minivan, this may seem surprising, but the Avantime has been a success since its release thanks to its innovative concept. Produced by Matra for Renault, the Avantime was designed to appeal to the clientele of the Renault Espace, which had run out of children. This car aims to keep the practical spirit of the Espace while adding more driving pleasure and a more refined design. This "Coupéspace" offers a large number of innovations, which will delay the launch of the model because development takes time. It offers large areas of glass, particularly on the roof between two raw aluminium arches, which provides a very bright environment. The interior is fitted with leather and high-end equipment such as Xenon lights and GPS. It will be produced between 2001
and 2003. Under the bonnet, various engines will be available, including a 200hp 3.0L V6. To the surprise of journalists, its road behaviour was surprisingly good and the gamble of a car that was pleasant to drive was taken. The Avantime proved to be a commercial failure. After only 8,557 units were produced in 22 months, production was stopped. This car is now legendary in more ways than one: ahead of its time, non-conformist design, avant-garde technical solutions... All these qualities make this car a collector's item.
The vehicle presented is a V6 Avantime from 2001. With 145,000 kilometres on the clock, it is in good general condition for a car of its age. Used for family, friends and pets, this car is a great way to get away in style!"
