Jun ◊ 2006-01-04 18:52	mmm....I'm straying half an hour. It may be early Dacia 1300 (1969-), but same car that has another nane was produced in Turkey... Is this taxi was inported from which country???
sixcyl ◊ 2006-01-04 19:16	Certainly not a Dacia, which has specific grill and head lights, though it's made upon same basis than this one which is obvioulsy a Renault 12, but might be a local production somewhere in middle-east? Where does this action takes place?...the data film tells about Greece, but the writtings on the taxi seems arabic
Jun ◊ 2006-01-04 19:39	If the grille embleme is lozenge shape, the answer is simply Renault 12. But it has Seemingly longwise rectangle emblem...I memorize Renault 12 has lozenge emblem from first model. And Dacia made this square headlight model from 1969... http://degriottier.free.fr/dacia_1300_70av.jpg mmm...Renault 12 is too mach 'world car' to identify.
sixcyl ◊ 2006-01-04 19:50	I must aplogize Jun ...you're absolutly right, I refered to the latest types of Dacia which were merely different that the genuine R12... but if this orange http://degriottier.free.fr/dacia_1300_70av.jpg car is a first generation of Dacia, then it is what you suggested. Dacia 1300 model 1969
Jun ◊ 2006-01-04 20:01	Thanks, sixcyl. If the information on this car and place becomes clear, the name of this car may change.
jplemoine ◊ 2006-08-28 13:21	Les toutes premières Dacia ne présentaient comme seule différence avec nos braves R12 que les sigles avant et arrières. Mais aussi, hélas, les carburateurs, cardans, allumeurs et amortisseurs... Puis les fabrications se sont différenciées dans le temps. Pour finir par des Dacia boîte 5, moteur 1600 injection et catalyseur, etc... qui auraient fait rêver n'importe quel possesseur de R12 française. Je revois les regards des amis roumains quand on leur ramenait des pièces estampillées "Renault"... avant la chute du Mur...

Is this taxi was inported from which country??? Jun is right, Dacias initially were the same as R12s and only later they started to change some details. I believe turkish R12s were built in a Renault factory and retained the original emblem.

Yvon52 ◊ 2006-08-28 18:16	Un mot un geste Yvon fait le reste En Turquie elle s'appelait Renault Toros voici le site http://www.arabadergisi.com/ps/renault/12toros.htm
mm ◊ 2006-08-28 18:17	IIRC Oyak-Renault MAIS - the turkish Renault plant, located in the beautiful city of Bursa, not far from Istanbul - always bear the original emblem. I was in Turkey long ago in 1989 and found all of the Renaults with original badges. The R12 had the largest market share as limousine and as 'break'. In Turkey, Fiat has Tofaş-Fiat for producing older models (Şahin/Doğan/Kartal) there, Ford has Otosan, Mercedes buses are made there by Otomarsan. All of them had and have the original badges. Dacia was an independent company which bought a license for the R12. They used their own badges only. Same is in Romania e.g. for the Oltcit (Citroen Axel/Visa) and for Roman (MAN). Yugoslavian RABA licensed some Mercedes and some DAF. They all had their specific emblems. -- Last edit: 2006-08-28 18:25:22

Yugoslavian RABA licensed some Mercedes and some DAF. They all had their specific emblems. You're right,mm,Oyak-Renault had used Renault rhombus logo always,recall a R 12 break in a 1977 circa Turkish played-movie"Bob il baro"(=Bob the trickster),plus 1974front end ones--trapeze headlights--in another 2 movies,also of Seventies,in the 1st case was into movie"Mettetemi in galera...ma subito!"(=Put me in prison quickly)in the second case a "Polìs"-liveried one into 1979 movie"Bersaglio Altezza Uomo"(=Man-Height Target),directed by Umberto Lenzi Dacia 1300(were the followers of 1968-1970 Dacia 1100--Renault R8 clones)were presented at 1969 Bucharest International Fair(after be launched in France as Renault R12),by UAP(=Uzina de Autoturism Pitesti=Pitesti's touring cars factory)and assembled into the Colibasi--no far by Pitesti's town--plants,set up with Renault's aid(in Italy Dacia were imported only thru 1982-1994 in 4 basic bodies:saloon,wagon and pickup,dropside and fixed loadbed,with or without tarpaulin--all showing quad-headlamps-front end introduced with 1980 restyling);was exported in Italy only with 1,3 engine(in Rumania shared also with Aro 10/Duster);in the last imports features only the dropside pick-up and the wagon,this late(with front end with wraparound trapeze headlights),equipped with 1.6 litre diesel of VW Golf,fitted just by Importer(former--1982-1987--was Dacia Automobili Italia,then switched at IAPFI later into '80s--1988-1994);the years thru 1989-1991 were more critical for Imports,knowning the facts that had hitted Rumania in that period. PS Some puntualization:Ràba(Hungarian,not Yugoslavian)had used MAN and DAF cabs,not Mercedes,results me;the ex-Yugoslav Brand you say maybe was FAP(that had used Saurer normal control cabs before and,since 1972,MB SK-forward control cabs on its trucks);Roman trucks cabs derives by similar Saviem SM-series ones,then sold also at MAN,after an agree signed in 1968-'69--Romans were sold also in China,under Hongyan(=red stone,Cummins-powered,but)and Huang-He(=yellow river)Brands. PS Thru Turkish Motor Makes I recall MANAS(MAN license,truck and bus),still operative in '80s Turkey.
