Gendarmerie Set Renault Estafette & Reanult 4L 1/24

RENAULT Estafette
This is the basic model that equipped the French Gendarmerie from 1961 onwards, initially in midnight blue, almost black, the S'Tafette will change to medium blue or French blue in 1969. The last vehicles arrived in the units in 1981, almost at the same time as the first RENAULT Trafic. In total, some 12,255 Estafettes were in service with the Gendarmerie.

RENAULT 4TL
The French government chose the 4L in 1962. Put into service in 1963, it was described as revolutionary, but easy to maintain and economical, and corresponded perfectly to the demands of the Gendarmerie. The 1978 model offered here has a 1108 cm3 engine with 34 bhp DIN and a well-spaced four-speed gearbox. The Gendarmerie will deploy nearly 14,000 4Ls. The last 4L of the Gendarmerie will be delivered to the Célestins district in Paris in June 1993.

Ensuring the smooth running of a society that has become that of the automobile, the 4L and the Estafette will be present on all French roads, at all crossroads, for more than three decades.
