1988 Renault 5 GT Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"My car's better than your car..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine blown on the way home, the seat bolsters snapped, not much more I can break whilst it's immobile.
General comments?
This car will work again one day, £560 for a new engine, £210 for new Recaro seats and a whole other load things that need doing but at the end of the day it still canes all my mates cars and it still looks dark, get one if you have a need for the finer things on the road.
