14TE 'Rendevouz' in Ealing

Post by maxgreenwood »

Just round the corner from my brother in-law, I saw it there 1.5 years ago too, doesn't look like its moved much but looks very tidy. In metallic silver, On an H plate.

Don't see many Rendevous, and TE is an unusual trim. Shall I see if my eyes on 'the mainland' would be up for getting nosey? I meant to but didn't get chance.

Have the RENDEZVOUS decals stood up to the 'UV' light with it being stood in one place for so long or are they starting to fade ?

:D

Would you? I'm looking for a 14 atm and a special edition is always a bonus! Where abouts in Ealing? My digs for uni is in Twickenham, so just a bit north really.
Anyone got info on the Rendezvous? (Tim?). EDIT - just googled and found a french site, saying they were only made in 1990 and in Memphis blue? So maybe aftermarket sticker?

Well it had that interior, the same decals. Might have been a hint of blue to its metallic silver, it definitely wasn't that colour!

Next time I chat to him I'll ask him to nose around

Sorry Richard I didn't mean any offence, I think it's good to pull up on details! You should be given honorary admin proof reader status. :)

The 'brochure' only states Memphis blue as a colour option but pretty sure I've seen them in silver before. Perhaps there was a second edition...

Max, you couldn't tell me where in Ealing this is could you? I'm heading down that way to see a friend week after next and would be a good perving opportunity.

5.3 miles away, thanks chaps! I will be needing a daily driver come July/August and that's one of my favourite trim/colour combo's! Only got phone for pics but who knows...

It's cool that you can see it on google streetview!

Certainly not! That would be no fun, unless... No I won't say it, too smutty.
