Summary

Description

1987 Renault 25 GTX - 2.2L injection 8 valve 4 cyl. J7T 730 petrol engine (124 ch). Chassis number VF1B29E0500709382, first registered in March 1987.

Probably the best phase one I have seen in years...

Just found this: "For a time the President of France used an Armoured Limousine variant of the Renault 25 with some special modifications. Not least of these were two extra fuel injectors fitted into the sill mouldings on either side of the car at the 'B' Pillar position. These were directly connected to the engine fuel system through a switch in the passenger compartment that would, if the engine was running, simultaneously pulse high pressure jets of neat petrol and ignite them as a deterrent. Since the fuel injection system runs at high pressure this would have been a quite effective flamethrower but somewhat dangerous for innocent bystanders. The system was later removed for this reason."
