1990 Renault GTA V6 Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"A real supercar with realistic running costs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windscreen wiper switch.
Alternator replaced.
Engine temperature sensor (for cold start)
Electrical earthing problems.
Turbo hoses replaced.
Clutch on its way out...
General comments?
Fantastic performance and very refined drive. Wonderful handling although requires respect in the wet.
Exotic, rare and benefits from specialist attention - in my case by PJ Autos. The GTA definitely prefers regular use rather than once a month!
Problems in sourcing original size rear tyres have forced me to join many others in replacing the factory alloy wheels with bigger ones for which tyres can be easily obtained.
