Renault Extra Overview
The Renault Extra is classed as a small panel van which was produced by the French automobile manufacturing company Renault. This van was in production from 1985 to 2000 and is based on the extremely popular Renault 5 supermini. The Extra was introduced on the second generation of the Renault 5.

There may not be many on the roads these days, but are good little vans. Does this sound like your experience of this van?
