Renault 25 Baccara

Unread post by Wal79 »

Good Evening, or morning whenever this post is read.

I am new to this forum and in the process of buying a 1989 LHD Renault 25 Baccara.

I have had a look on social media for places where I can lay my hands on parts and to no avail and wondered if anyone on here could point me in the direction of someone UK based??

I’ve not got the car as yet but I do know that I will need RHD headlights to start.

Thanks in advance.

RHD headlights seem to be made of unobtainium. I presume that yours is the facelift (post 1988) version.
You may be able to get an MOT with black tape on the lenses to give a flat beam pattern, but it is debatable whether that is legal for a car that is UK registered (i.e. not a temporary visitor), and not all testers will allow it.

Nice (but brave) choice of car. I have seen a few of them at car shows in France.
