Lovely Renault 5 Turbo

[r0ss172]

Saw this today in Warwick at the retro classic car show... Anyone know the owner? Looked very tidy!

excuse the crap iPhone pictures... Wish I'd taken some shots of the other cars now

Yeah that's nice, upload the others so we see what else was there.

I didn't take any mate sorry, I live about 100yds away from the square so went for a walk this morning when I heard all the cars driving past my flat just for a bit of a nose around

Unfortunately the mileage "can't be confirmed" as the previous owner changed the clocks

its a lovely car pal and I was so close to buying it but i am still in the middle of rebuilding 2 GT Turbos.

i wasnt actually going to buy it as i have a renault 8 project on the go but i had one a fair few years ago, went to see sparkie took it for a drive and ended up taking it home. its only been out 5-6 times since ive had it but its great fun. after all the gtt's and 11 turbos ive had plus all the clios its kinda good to get back in something with character that doesnt need much attention.

Oh right you own it then? Awesome car, soon as I saw it I made a B-Line for it! Was hoping to get some engine bay pics but on,y walked around for half hr or so... Would have been good to have a chat too.

whats the spec on it? Output etc... I noticed it had a couple of cheeky gauges in the air vents ;-)

Indeed i do. cheers bud.

lol the only non stock gauge is the boost one as the stock boost gauge doesn't have an actual pressure on it. Not much done to it really, tiny boost increase for now, lowered on koni shocks, think it put out 120bhp at the hubs at 10psi. Should have a little more now but not much.

Awesome. Simply awesome. Want. It.
