Updated from the NZTA Motor Vehicle Register, counted as at 31 August 2026. Recounted every month.
A pretty rear-engined coupe and convertible, Italian-styled and built on small Renault saloon parts. It started life in the late 1950s as the Floride, using Dauphine running gear, and took the Caravelle name as it moved to the Renault 8's engine and disc brakes. More boulevard cruiser than sports car.
