i think, that rates higher than this Espace F1 for the difference between the road going version, for those that dont know Suzuki Escudo was the original Vitara in UK
Rod Millens Toyota Celica and Toyota Tacoma would be interesting too. AFAIK the Tacoma is in the USA and the Celica is in New Zealand. Both are in full working order still, so he might even let you see it in action if you are lucky.
Couple of years ago I drove from Northampton to the Matra museum just to see the Espace because it was so iconic. I basically planned a whole road 10 day road trip around that one exhibit. The whole museum was brilliant. I was expecting to look at the F1 and be bored by the rest of the place but it’s a proper little gem. Loads of history and it’s obviously maintained by genuine enthusiasts, not just someone looking to make a quick buck.
To answer your question regarding the wheels, the answer is: those are exactly as they always were. That's because there were two Espace F1, the one with the wheel dishes, orange lights on the rear spoiler and partial blanking of the front air intake was a static model, the one featured on the video is the fully-functional one...which always wore those Ronal centre-lock wheels.
17:12 Smooth down the straight and just like him saying about how bumpy it was, that was from it binding up taking a corner too sharply, as the tyres were so grippy it wasn't slipping and boucing... you can see it getting air.
and to complete your researches : The second Espace F1 is a completely static car, like a real-size replica, kept in the Renault collection which sleeps at their Flins (Paris suburbs) factory. In this one you can find the engine cover, it kinda looks like a bubble. They may have LOST the one from the running Espace F1...
Actually spent quite a lot of time around the Espace F1. My father is a long time Renault collector and back in the day when the F1 was at Silverstone and Donnington park on display with other Renault’s he was asked to bring along two of his original mid engined 5 Turbos. I absolutely loved that thing and even had one of my Phase 2 GT Turbos painted in similar livery back then
Still it’s the only “ normal “ car brand wich did the most years in Motorsport and didn’t quite when the the going gets tough ( like Honda Ugh ugh ) but keep hating
@Ted_Kenzoku No not fully smartguy . The engine they leave . But how much did Honda leave should we talk about that .. and Toyota , bmw . And normal manufacture like Renault stayed . But keep hating ..
I watched this last night. I couldn’t wait to get done with dinner so I could give it my full attention. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I am 49 years old and this is the ONE VEHICLE that I have been waiting for a deep dive on now since 1995. Hell, I’m even American and we barely had Renault, let alone the Espace. Thank you Mike once again for getting down and detailed with this one! I love this van!!
Nostalgia overload !!! This will always be the baddest people carrier of all time... I used to play with this for hours in gt2 YOU SHOULD DO A SERIES ON LEGENDARY GT2 CARS... Escudo pikes peak Cultus pikes peak Toyota gt one Tvr speed 12 Alfa 155 touring R390 gt1 Hks r33 gtr RE Amemiya Matsukiyo RX-7 That's all I can remember for now 😅
I was lucky enough to be a teenager in the 90s, I had the privilege of witnessing the release of the most iconic games, Need for Speed Road&Track, Resident Evil, Gran Turismo, I remember skipping school the day I bought Gran Turismo in early 1998 here in Brazil, I spent the whole day playing
I'm very happy to say I was one of those kids that played GT2 and instantly fell in love with that beast. I'm probably going to get a lot of heat for saying this but, I think it's the most iconic car ever made! Such a cool idea and outstanding result. It's such a shame it doesn't move, I think as long as the engine is put in a glass case to be displayed next to it then an engine swap is fine. That car deserves to move and be shown off to the rest of the world. Really enjoyed this trip down memory lane 🥰
I was born too young to play the game But I am old enough to enjoy this French madness. Thank you so much DT for helping me enjoy the 2000s once again. I can still remember drooling over this on the computer, and magazines ❤❤❤❤
The fact that it still, somehow, looks so modern despite being as old as it is goes a long way to say just how ahead of it's time it truly was. What a machine.
The joy that I have had seeing this vid and being a PS Grand Turismo player when I had a PlayStation 4. The Espace F1 is iconic as the TOMS Supra and the Toyota GT1 when it game to the game. Thank you Drive Tribe for this
Its really cool to see all the wear and tear on the car, from the radiator fins having dints in them to the wheels being scuffed. Its clearly been ran and was not just glorified marketing material.
Finally someone got in to it i thought someday someone will bring it back in the spotlight This is a project when racing people having fun you got this van as a result thanks for showing it , for the younger people to know.
Fake vents were let down, full carbon chassis and body dope. Always love and respect when companies would do these crazy builds. Seeing a video about them is great keep them coming.
Amazing video! Love the story about the legendary Renault F1 Espace. Sleek transition between storyline and sponsorship moment. Didn't not need to skip ahead. Thanks Mike for one of the best clips on Drivetribe, keep up the good work!
Thank you for this love letter to this amazing car! I feel like I've met an old friend from my childhood...... so many hours spend with GT2 driving this beast. I was always thinking how some details look in real world. Maybe I will reach this place some day to visit my old friend!
Honestly, no one should touch how these cars were originally built. I'd rather see those cars stationary in a museum with the original engine, than seeing it driving but butchered up with an engine-downgrade.
Much like a lot of people here I know of this legendary car because of Gran Turismo 2 (that intro was peak). However the most shocking for me was hearing "Matra", because I thought to myself "That old factory simingly every elderly person around here worked at ? WhAt a CoiNcIdENce !" Over the years I'd vaguely heard of the Matra museum in the city but not much more, especially since I don't really know anyone around me who's into cars. Then I looked it up to be sure this was it and... now I'm absolutely dumbfounded that I've been living 20 miles away from it (literally drove there yesterday), AND I must've passed in front of it 20 times learning how to drive in the school that's 200m away... thanks Drivetribe ! :D PS : In my defense the museum isn't advertised a ton and is located in a small street deep in the city lol
Great vid of an iconic piece of machinery Mike. While this is something else, my favourite motorsport MPV has to be the 95 Peugeot 806 that competed at the 24 Hours of Spa. What a beast!
Just brilliant Mike. I bet the guy on Pistonheads who put a Lexus powertrain in an Espace as a semi-replica would have given his eye teeth for this video. That was a classic thread on Pistonheads.
I saw this ahem, Espace, at the 1996 British grand prix at Silverstone. It was surreal, to say the least, to see an Espace screaming its head off down the hanger straight. Something that'll live with me forever.
I remember seeing a photo of this back in 1993 when Alain Prost drove it. I thought they'd just stuck an Espace van body over the top of the F1 car for a laugh. I had no idea until later on, that it was actually a more bespoke build, and even had seats in the back. I'm surprised this concept hasn't been pursued by other companies, as a way to give members of the public a go in something F1'ish.
Saw Frank Williams being taken round Silvestone in the Espace. Great to see the most incredible man who suffered silently for so long being able to experience the speed and power of the Espace - not quite as fast but still amazing. Can't for the life of me remember the date - I think it was mid to late 90's I do remember Johnny Herbert racing a Benetton
Thank you for sharing one of the most important cars from my childhood, the other being the Suzuki escudo. Such an amazing car I now need to make the trip just to see this.
Loved the intro. Me and like many others of my gen. This is how we discovered this UFO of a car. I oddly enjoyed the bittersweet tone of this video too. Mono no Aware sorta vibe.
Man, I'm glad this thing is still around in its original form! Such an insanely awesome car... I would love to see it driven at some point, but that may be wishful thinking.
I saw that run at goodwood a few years back, hilarious spectacle with the totally unexpected sound and speed, there must be a vid of it on UA-cam somewhere.
Thx for this well done video👍 Love this car, would be great to see it running again. Hopefully one day Renault will realize, how important it is to an brand, keeping their icons alive, like Mercedes does for example with the C111
That's the holy Grail, right there - the coolest thing on wheels. I can not begin to describe how utterly jealous I am of Mike getting to climb all over the thing... damn! On a side note; let's be honest - those 90s (and earlier - first car-game I played was Out-Run back in 1986) computer games really sucked. It wasn't until the early 2000s that games were any good really, with smooth driving dynamics and cars that did not look like lego-brick-builds. No nostaliga in the world can hide that fact. Also - I can not believe the Espace F1 will be 30 years old next year - how the hell did that happen...
What an absolutely epic brick this thing is, been an icon car for me since I first saw and heard it, there's just something about a vehicle that big and chunky making those noises and being that ridiculously fast that I can't explain, it's so stupid but at the same time so awesome hahaha
Look at the lovely blue Matra Le Mans cars which won 3 times in 1972-4. There is of course also the Ford Supervan, powered by a GT40 back end, from 1971. That was followed by two more in the following decades.

The Micra with a GT-R engine in it.
Find the wreck of the Mazda Furai
Any classic Matra or Alpine Sportscar will do, if you want to stay in france. Or do something Abarth maybe...?
There a French UA-cam channel that is supposed to make a Espace F1 with a V10; It's: @Movie Car Central
I'd avoid places that can't be arsed to get some dolleys to wheel the car out. [ they have 100's of cars and no dolleys!? ] and mftcrs who hide all their tech, it's not really show and tell then ;-)
The nostalgia from the intro...
playing gt4 spec ii ATM ♥️
They smashed the intro when they did the TVR Speed 12 on this channel too
I also like these GT2 touches on the channel automobilistic, he uses the first snare hit from south and east city as a divider between video sections and I might say they are very tasteful, very skillfully placed and very nostalgic :D
we are old lol
Took me right bk to my step hair cut & shell suit that SONY beginning 🙏✌🇬🇧
The irony of this video coming out the same week as Renault announced that it won't be making F1 engines beyond 2025...
Would be less damaging to their brand if they just pull out altogether
Renault now is runed by seat ceo! A small mind that don't understand what Renault is!
@@lordlusos8870 Even the Seat CEO does not understand their own brand either, lol

@@-Lucky-Six- yes But Heavy modified and with 2 engines :D
i hope so too both Escudo and Cultus :D
Yes pls

Yeah it would be awesome if they did that, probably the only way anyone could enjoy driving this ever again.
I saw the title and though "Hey that is that car from Gran Turismo 2" and you start with Gran Turismo 2. Perfect.
One of the best intros for a video ever!! I logged more hours on Gran Turismo than I can count.
Seen the Espace F1 live on the track at Silverstone... that thing was mental
they drove it at the Goodwill fest this year - it was the Famous Rally driver Jean Ragnotti driving it

Great video! It was a pleasure to welcome you! ☺
Have always loved this van since GT2!

Pretty much every crossover from sporty brands is as big, yet not as spacious and weighs like twice as much

That interior and F1 engine positioned between the rear seats is epic! So cool to finally see this thing up close outside of GT2
Insane car! 🔥
Man, what a cool video. Full of nostalgia, and appreciate the nice close up video of the details.
that was a cool transition from the game
Ah, my man. Even the ads feel fine under your presentation and I don't skip them at all in your vids.
