DACIA 1100 1968 - 1971



Dacia is the most representative brand of cars in Romania, around which it designed and developed automotive industry in Romania. He was born in 1966, Colbasi, Arges county. Since that time united close ties of cooperation with Renault, and today is increasingly asserted as international brands, so gratifying for us. Mioveni car factory construction began in 1966. After signing a license agreement between Renault and the Romanian state in 1968, the construction of the 1100 model started.
The Dacia 1100 was the first mass-produced Romanian car, built under licence from Renault. Technically a clone of the Renault 8, it was manufactured for three years as a stopgap model until the tooling required to build the Dacia 1300 (Renault 12) was ready. Over 40.000 models were produced until 1971, with a minor design refresh at the beginning of 1970. This was a rear wheel traction sedan.
The first dacia 1100 model which left the factory gate was given as a present to Nicolae Ceausescu, the President of the Socialist Republic of Romania. Under the agreement, Renault provides all the parts from the model, folowing the romanian workers to assemble them.
