Renault 7

The Renault Siete, called the Renault 7 from 1979, is a four-door saloon version of the Renault 5 supermini that FASA-Renault, Renault's Spanish subsidiary, built and sold in Valladolid from 1974 to 1984. It was mechanically identical to the Renault 5 but had a wheelbase about 6 cm longer, a saloon-style boot of 400 cubic decimetres against the hatchback's 270, conventional chromed metal bumpers and its own dashboard. It started with a 1,037 cc engine of 50 PS and received small annual updates, a restyle with a new interior and rear lights in 1979 when the name changed from Siete to 7, and a 1,108 cc engine in 1980. Sales outside Spain were limited because Renault offered the larger Renault 12 for a small price premium. Production ended in 1984 after 159,533 cars.
