1988 Renault 5 GT Turbo review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The turbo has blown twice as I thrash the hell out of it but is now replaced and I have fitted a new dump valve which has cured the problem.
I have also fitted a water cooling system.
General comments?
Has GT Turbo side skirts, rear spoiler, BB4 exhaust, lowered 50mm, 19 inch Venoms alloys - excellent condition.
