41988 Renault Medallion Manufacturer Promo
Renault’s non-controlling interest in AMC became a distribution and sales arm for selections from its domestic line-up. The Medallion is a Renault 21 – a long-running and very successful car throughout Europe, akin in size to intermediate offerings such as the Ford Granada and Chevy Celebrity. Its four door configuration and “Three Box” design is typical of the period; a precursor to the “Cab Forward” movement of the 1990s.
Like any large automaker, Renault had its share of design innovation. Some of these were welcome features, such as the three-way adjustable pedestal-style front bucket seats. Their narrow track made raking-out the fast-food wrappers and empty Dunkin’ Donuts cups from beneath a breeze. Extended travel adjustment offered more than enough leg room for this 6′ 3″ driver and the height adjustment was infinite.
Durable gray hounds-tooth cloth came standard with my Charcoal Metallic exterior in the DL series, with an up-scale leather package an option on the LX. My base-model DL came with automatic transmission, power steering and (front disc) brakes, cold and dependable air conditioning, full carpeting, AM/FM 6-speaker Jensen stereo sound system, cruise control, tilt wheel, intermittent wipers and rear window defogger.

I bought mine used in 2000 in San Francisco and it has been my daily commuter since and the most comfortable ride ever for long trip.
It is an 88 DL and runs strong.
Would you ever consider selling it to me when you’re ready?
