Description
JEANNEAU MICROCAR RJ49 – History:
Built by Jeanneau S.A. in Les Herbiers (Vendée), this licence-free vehicle is part of the manufacturer’s French production range; at the time, the company was active in the microcar market prior to the evolution of the Microcar brand. Designed for urban use, it prioritises mechanical simplicity, low running costs and ease of driving.
Description:
The example shown is a Jeanneau S.A. RJ49M licence-free vehicle, retaining its original manufacturer’s plate as well as an old invoice.
The engine compartment appears complete and seems to have retained its original configuration. It is fitted with a 49 cm³ single-cylinder engine, as indicated on the manufacturer’s plate. The various mechanical components are present, notably the cooling system, the tanks, the intake components and the transmission. Overall, the vehicle shows signs of wear consistent with its age, with a moderate amount of dust and traces of surface oxidation on certain metal parts, particularly the exhaust system.
The vehicle comes with an old handwritten invoice and its original manufacturer’s plate, which identifies the RJ49M model, its serial number 7403 and its engine capacity of 49 cm³. The vehicle is sold without registration documents.
The vehicle as a whole offers an interesting restoration project for a collector of French licence-free vehicles from the 1990s.
