    That’s basically the best car review I have ever seen. I could really feel the car. The material. The sound it makes steering or opening the doors. That’s incredible good. I enjoyed it. Thank you!

      the 1.6D works without watter and oil, don't ask how I found out, I just changed the cylinder head gasket and that was it, good to go as nothing happened 😂😂😂 no need to change the distribution belt, mine was not changed for more than 14 years, it was starting the the first rotation of the starter motor, even with low battery, at the first rotation it was up and runing

    I'm surprised to see plenty of leg room in the rear... and I always had a huge liking for vehicles with crank windows, manual mirrors, sliding windows and front hinged bonnets. This has all of the above.

    When you switched off the hazard light I swear it sounded like a wet fart :D :D
    Btw thank you for the video :) I love these nowadays forgotten French cars. If I had the chance I would surely buy this one or a Peugeot Expert from the late 90's, early 00's instead of any newer van.
    My company has a 1.5 ad blue diesel Opel Combo from 2019. (has the same everything as the newest Peugeot or Citroen vans).
    Such a plastic piece of crap with no quality. Barely has 50k kilometers, but had major problems several times. Let us down many times.
    I'd 100% choose this Renault Express or a Peugeot Expert as I said. May not have heated seats or AC, but honestly I don't care :P I prefer reliability and simple/repairable machines.

      30 years old, and still that 1.9 diesel engine beats like a clockwork. ;)
      No high pressure system, no ad blue, No thin timing belt as a shoelace or timing chain like a bicycle chain that shatters after 50k km.
      I swear this van has more quality than the whole Renault or PSA-Stellantis group today.

    The scary part is that this is the highest powered version of this car they made. There is also one that has a whopping 32kW or about 40 horses, imagine taking that thing up a mountain loaded with tools or multiple people. 0-100 would be measured in minutes, if you made it at all.

    😅A l'origine, la voiture Express sort neuve de l'usine avec un bruit gênant, notamment les portes arrière. La voiture Express change d'état après chaque voyage. Vous vous retrouverez toujours préoccupé par ses problèmes interminables..Mais elle démarre toujours et rampe sur la route, quelles que soient les conditions. En raison de mon travail dans le domaine du soudage, j'ai possédé trois de ces voitures, et j'en possède maintenant une à essence de 1987. Ces voitures sont toujours très demandées ici. en Algérie.
