1956/58-1960 Renault Domaine and Manoir

These were the estate versions of the Frégate sedan. The only real difference between the two, other than in name, was that the Manoir was introduced two years after the Domaine in 1958 as the up-scale luxury version. There was no engine option other than the 2.1 4-cylinder that produced 77-80 hp that shoved around about 2800 pounds. But you could choose your transmission; either a 4-speed stick or a 3-speed semi-auto.

  1. Nice car. I like the chrome accents and grill on the car in the video. Sadly, my German-language skills are non-existent. But oh wow, a 45 rpm record player! What a period accessory. Loved the film, thanks K2.
