An opportunity of the visitor to discover to rediscover the history of the brand with the diamond-shaped logo. FROM 1898 TO 2018, BACK ON 120 YEARS OF HISTORY The adventure begins in a small shed at the back of the family garden in Boulogne-Billancourt. Louis Renault, the fourth son of Alfred Renault – who had made his fortune making buttons – is passionate about all things mechanical. At the age of 21, he modifies a De Dion-Bouton tricycle, transforming it into a quadricycle by adding a fourth wheel. He also comes up with a completely new direct drive system which does away with the fan belt and chain drive, both of which are poor at leveraging the engine’s output – which is still low. Paris-Vienna, june 1902 . Mr Louvet sur Renault He files the patent on 9 February 1899, just as the Renault type A copyrights : RMN-Grand Palais (domaine de Compiègne) / Stéphane Maréchalle Voiturette – for which Louis has already received a number of firm orders as a result of the famous 1898 Christmas race on Rue Lepic – is going into production. This exceptional Type A, donated to the National Car Museum by Louis Renault in 1929, will be presented at Rétromobile. On 29 February 1899, Louis’ two brothers, Marcel and Fernand, invest their money and create Société Renault Frères, headquartered at 10, Avenue du Cours in Billancourt. The Type B Voiturette comes hot on the heels of the Type A model. Built by the Renault brothers, the 1900 Type B is one of the first cars on the market to feature a roof and two doors. The National Voiturette Renault - Tilbury car-body type, Car Museum owns a Type B and will be presenting it at Rétromobile air-cooled single-cylinder engine of 1 3/4 HP in February. Just like the Type A, it incorporates a De Dion-Bouton produced by the Firme de Dion-Bouton engine, and its bodywork draws inspiration from the Hackney copyrights : RMN-Grand Palais (domaine de Compiègne) / Jean-Pierre Lagiewski carriages which are still in service in large towns and cities. The following year in 1901, the brothers build a Type D, also incorporating a De Dion-Bouton engine. The model on show at the National Car Museum has undergone a number of changes, and was donated by the Marquis de Dion in April 1936. This is a reminder that De Dion-Bouton engines were used by the Renault brothers «from the start up until 1902-1903». These first three Renault cars had maximum speeds of 30 to 45 km/h. In August 1899, the Renault brothers realise that – if they want to generate some publicity for their company – they are going to have to take part in the motor races that are proving enormously Small city coupé Renault, type C with a Dion- successful among the general public and in the press. Right from Bouton single-cylinder engine of 3 HP, magneto ignition the start, Marcel and Louis win a number of titles in the voiturette crédits : RMN-Grand Palais (domaine de Compiègne) / Tony category, until Marcel is tragically killed in an accident during the Querrec 1903 Paris-Madrid race. Racing driver François Szisz then takes over the reins of the Renault stable. The brand’s reputation is shored up as the Billancourt factories grow, while the Paris taxi company orders 1500 taxis fitted with the new mechanical taximeter. Following the death of Marcel and then Fernand retiring for health reasons, the Renault brothers dissolve the company and Louis renames it the Société des Automobiles Renault on 1 October 1908.

    Mullin Museum 2013 June www.ocPanteras.com July 2013 Mullin Museum by Scott Couchman. Team Pantera of Orange County enjoyed a first class visit to a first class venue of French classics at the Mullin Automobile Museum on June 8th, 2013. Assembled by Peter W. Mullin, this collection is his passion. The museum's website declares, “For me the French automobiles of the 1920s and 1930s represent the pinnacle of 20th Century art and design. As an avid collector, the preservation of these rolling sculptures for the enjoyment of future generations is both a responsibility and a pleasure. I relish the stewardship and preservation of their exciting histories.” - Peter W. Mullin. Car Collection – With a total of over 350 cars, the museum continually rotates to display approximately 60 vehicles at any one time. The most 'common' marks are Bugatti, Avion Voisin, Delahaye, Hispano-Suiza, and Talbot-Lago, plus an upstairs mezzanine of LeMans race cars. In particular, it includes the worlds largest collection of Voisins. The heart of the collection is the: • 1939 Delahaye Type 165 Cabriolet, and one of only 6 12-cylinder Type 165s that was built to represent France at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. • 1935 Avions Voisin C25 Aerodyne, 'Best of Show' winner at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours D'Elegance. This magnificent car was first presented at the 1934 Paris Salon de l' Automobile. • 1934 Avions Voisin C27 Grand Sport Cabriolet, constructed in 1934 with a special low chassis C27 for the Shah of Persia. • 1936 BUGATTI Type 57SC Atlantic, the 2003 Pebble Beach 'Best of Show' award winner.

    August 2016 Volume 3 Issue 8 Editorial Comments: With summer coming to an end be sure to check out the loaded fall season we have planned for the balance of 2016. There are more things to do and events than ever. Alfa Romeo Selection of the Month for August 2016. Car Name: 1939 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Lungo Touring Spider – not your average spider! Alfa Article: The Montreal Finally gets Respect Note: Curtisey Road & Track The Alfa Romeo Montreal Is Cooler Than Most Ferraris The Montreal is probably the greatest oddball of the seventies. A friend of mine has a beautiful black Alfa Romeo Montreal. He calls her Lukrécia, and the car works as flawlessly as such a machine can—because it lives at Alfarium, a shop where they can deal with its dry-sump 2.6 liter V8's crazy SPICA fuel injection and all the wiring that wasn't quite finished at the factory. That's why I trust them with my Autobianchi, a slightly less complex beast. Lukrécia even made it to the pages of Petrolicious before, but now, it was time for photographer/illustrator TJ Grewal's beautiful blue Montreal to become their latest star. TJ ended up buying the first Montreal he ever saw—importing it from Italy—and as somebody who spends a lot of time in his studio appreciating the details of such cars, he couldn't be happier about getting this Bertone classic. Alfa Romeo built less than 4000 Montreals in the middle of the oil crisis, naming the production version of the concept car after the Canadian Expo it was made for.

  • The Trojan Horse: Imported Automobiles
    CHAPTER 5 suggested citation: Medrano-Bigas, Pau. The Forgotten Years of Bibendum. Michelin’s American Period in Milltown: Design, Illustration and Advertising by Pioneer Tire Companies (1900-1930). Doctoral dissertation. University of Barcelona, 2015 [English translation, 2018]. THE TROJAN HORSE: IMPORTED AUTOMOBILES In the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the furor for bicycles as a personal and economical means of transport led to the invasion of the French market by English and American firms—leading to fierce commercial competition with the country’s own industries—resulting in the collapse of 1898. In the early stages of the new century the full development of the European automobile industry and in particular the French sector—with the inseparable development of the tire—produced a similar effect. However, this time it was the American market that was invaded by imported European vehicles, pre- dominantly from France. 1. Transatlantic travel on wheels Between 1890 and 1891 the first French vehicles marketed by Peugeot—one of the major bicycle manu- facturers—and Panhard et Levassor, appeared on the scene and incorporated the internal combustion engine developed by the German Gottlieb Daimler. French and German investments in technology, which would be imposed on the rest, was based on gasoline-powered engines and collided with the English and North American options, diversified between vapor, electric and gas-powered automobiles. Production data from the United States in 1899 show that there were 2,500 vehicles—about 80% of which used electric or steam engines—manufactured by around 30 companies. Between 1900 and 1901, France was by far the world’s largest automobile producer.

  • UNCLE WICK Written by Gabe Delahaye
    UNCLE WICK Written by Gabe Delahaye EXT. DUBAI - NIGHT The glittering skyscrapers of oil rich Dubai loom over the Arabian sea. We pass through them and down the coast... ...to a PALATIAL ESTATE: luscious green gardens in the middle of the desert, an olympic-sized swimming pool, ARMED GUARDS lining the roof and patrolling the perimeter... We push into... INT. LIBRARY - PALATIAL ESTATE - DUBAI - CONTINUOUS House music thuds in the background. There is a party happening at the house, but this BRASS AND LEATHER LIBRARY is where serious business happens. ANGLE ON: an IMPERIOUS CRIME LORD sipping tea at the head of a massive antique table, surrounded by his HENCHMEN. This is HAMZA (60s) head of “The Nizam,” a league of assassins. HAMZA We’re not having this discussion again. The peace with Skalnikoff and The Colony has been to everyone’s financial benefit. They take the lion’s share of western assignments, but the Nizam controls the east, and with it-- TARIK This isn’t peace. This is Skalnikoff waiting for our guard to drop, so he can strike. If you don’t come for him, he’ll come for you, father. ANGLE ON: TARIK (30s) at the opposite end of the table. He has the bearing of an ungrateful prince: controlled by his father and desperate to take his place. HAMZA I admire your ambition, my son, but you still have much to learn. In the background, the CLUB MUSIC cuts out and we hear SCREAMS. The men at the table perk up, on high alert. A HENCHMAN peaks out the window, shakes his head to signal: the roof is empty.
