Renault 4 – kit from LEGO® bricks

The French small car, known as the R4 for short, was a huge international success. Over eight million units rolled off the production line before production was discontinued in 1992 after more than 30 years.

It wasn't just its compact design that impressed. The then revolutionary new "fifth door" and the front-wheel drive, which was not yet so common, were also enthusiastically received. Inexpensive, practical, versatile, robust and economical in fuel consumption – this made the nimble French car the ideal and often preferred vehicle for young people for a long time. Many people who are now long retired remember the Renault 4 as their first car.
