The Renault 11 was introduced in 1983 as the successor to the Renault 14. Designed as a compact, practical, and modern hatchback, it appealed to a wide audience. With its angular lines, spacious interior, and robust technology, the Renault 11 perfectly matched the automotive trends of the early 1980s. The GTL version offered a combination of comfort and fuel efficiency and became popular on European roads.
Corgi Toys released the Renault 11 GTL in 1983 as number 384, almost simultaneously with the introduction of the real car, demonstrating Corgi's close attention to current events at the time. The model featured realistic details such as the characteristic angular body lines, working parts, and original Renault badging. Children enjoyed it as a contemporary family car, while collectors appreciated it as a modern addition to their collections.
This example is in very good condition, retaining its original details and appearance. This makes it not only a nostalgic toy, but also a miniature that beautifully reflects the automotive history of the 1980s.
The Corgi Toys 384 Renault 11 GTL is a sought-after collector's item today – a combination of typical 1980s design and Corgi's eye for quality.
