The B14 engine I have seen many examples with more than 100 000 miles. I am unsure whether this unit will achieve 300 000 miles. I am yet to be convinced. To be honest, I love Volvo, especially the 70s and 80s stuff, but I don't think much of Renault. The B14 engine is also used in the Renault 5 GT Turbo and they are renowed for snapping push rods under hard acceleration. And yes, Renault electrics are dreadful. Could be worse, could be as bad as Fiat electrics.
Hello, can you sell me this car?!

Get a Weber carb, and put a small turbo in it - great fun! And if your car is beltdriven, then convert it...
Greetings from the country who made that car.

The Renault B14 is actually one of the most bombproof units ever made.
Not unusual to see them clocking up 300,000+ miles.

Nice.
You can tell the sound of a B14 Renault engine a mile off!
