Renault 5 turbo

This is one of the cars on my future target list. If I only had room in my garage . . .

Anyways, you might want to check out the R5 Turbo group on Yahoo groups. Let the guys know that you're in the market and serious. Many of these cars are sold word of mouth. Good luck! The hunt is half the fun.

Are you looking for just an R5 Turbo(FWD)? Or a Turbo2 or 1 (MRE/RWD)?

My friend has an '84 Turbo 2 that he's selling (I'm about to help him market the car)

It's an '84, with TRX tires on the OE Turbo 2 wheels. Car is located just north of Toronto, Ontario Canada. It's red on beige. Mostly original paint, some areas were repainted by previous owner. Paint is good, some fade in pigment but does shine nicely after a wax. No rust. Was federalized for US market. Lots of brochures come with the car.

I've driven the car many times. It's quick and responds well (turbo feels healthy). We've had it around Mosport for a track day, easily (and quickly) hit 135mph up the back straight. Short ratios, super fun! It could use a freshening up, but it runs quite nicely.

Comes with stage 2 intercooler, but it's brand new in a box. Stage 1 intercooler installed. Has 35K kms on the odo, but the clock shows mph (it's an overlay, covering the Euro speedo - but a faithful repro). My friend has owned it for a longggg time (20 years or so?!?)

I have a few pics that I can share. Car has been super reliable, so not many maintenance records to show. PM me if you're interested in getting in contact with the owner.

Cheers.
