1987 Renault GTA V6 Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Value for money, a real flyer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator blew at 63000, very difficult to replace due to positioning.
Aluminium casting on the wing mirrors corrode causing the paint work to blister.
Drivers seat will no longer tilt forward as the mechanism has broken inside the seat upright.
Glass headlight covers have cracked twice and cannot be replaced without taking the nose cone off the car. Very expensive at £175 each plus labour.
General comments?
Wheels have been replaced so that rear tyres can be obtained at a realistic price.
Build quality is not great and should have been improved on if Renault had kept the Alpine alive.
