no , not a lucky guess

bit of deduction . . could see the bars for the headrests on the seats

only the sport has those , not the turbo interior .

The Renault 19 first appeared in the 1990s! They all had a Renault transaxle; initially the engine came from Renault too, uprated to about 85bhp (from a standard of 60-odd). Later ones had a twinc; the last ones had a 'Big Valve' twinc.

I cant work out if your arguing with me here ??

Either way you sound like you know more about it than I do, it came as a Broken shell and was re built, its still not completed. The exhaust took some mad shaping to fit in, completely re created the interior from scratch.

You may have guess its not my handy work, but it keeps the scooby warm
