Sandie ◊ 2010-12-05 23:24	I didn't know that either. (To me it was always 8) I found this on Google Images: http://www.historicinsurance.co.uk/historic/Gallery/1055.jpg

Jan 67 still known as 1100 but had R10 badging. Names continued unchanged through Sept 67 facelift with rectangular lights. Sept 69 manual fitted with 1289cc engine and rear badge for 1300 [R1192], automatic continued with 1108cc [still R1190]; both versions now known as Renault 10 (not R10). Both discontinued July 71. I think the Major name was only used in UK on the 8 when it had 1108cc. -- Last edit: 2010-12-05 23:50:46
