1989 Renault 21 Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"A family saloon to destroy boy racers"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
NOTHING!!!! I've put some new tyres on, and done a full Mobil One oil change.
I think if anything, I can just hear a slight whine at 30mph from the rear wheel bearings.. but it disappears at 28 and 32... and no, I ain't selling it.
General comments?
234bhp, 267 torque, new Ali intercoolers, but much too powerful for a 2wd car, from 40mph + it takes your breath away (but it has to be a dry road or you're all over the shop...)
See the car on http://www.renault21turbo.com/gallery.htm
It's the one marked Dean's car.
