Hey Dell Boy!

I've finally found someone who is a bigger hoarder/Renault Perv than your goodself

Amazing, is your Dutch good enough for a translation.....?
Keeping cars is one thing, spares mountains are another....

El Presidente isn't that big a hoarder by UK renault standards pure 'number of cars' wise. There have been people with many more. But the standard of his are generally much higher. Mr Bickle has many many more. I'd guess Brian Whiteside would have been his main competitor with a similar level of goodies but a lot of old rustbuckets as spares as well, but he's sold most of them off now (2 R5 T1s and a few T2s plus a few Alpines, 8 &12 Gordinis and a couple of R5 GTT convertibles - now mostly all gone).
El Ps 'new part' hall must be up there.

But by European standards El Presidente is a bit of a beginner, but the waters are a bit muddied by their habit of buying a car 'with a friend/brother etc'!

I know that lady! She has about 80 cars.

We went out for dinner as a group after the last Renault Classic meeting in Paris and also she came to the NEC as a guest of ROC.

She is hoping to open a small museum to the public.

If you have enough space I guess it is relatively easy to accumulate a vast collection of old Renaults if you are not particularly interested in sports models. In fact I was talking about this to Mr Holt this morning!!

Here's some to get you started if you are so inclined:
