Sparky Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 R5 Gordini is the only one I like but I would pick a Metro 6R4 over one anyday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4efte_ryan Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 R5 Gordini is the only one I like but I would pick a Metro 6R4 over one anyday yea the gordini is a good car, ive been out in a 5turbo 2 nothing special compared to a modern car performance wise but they look the dogs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jae-Glanza Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'm not familiar with the rest but have a soft spot for the r5 turbo =] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nayls Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 They are NOT unreliable!!! just too easy to tune at home & then go bang because "some" owners think you can run 20psi without playing with the carb jets.i've had an 11,aswell as 28 gtt's,a gordini & a 21t so yeah im a retro renault fan got any pics of the beast?

riko666 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I quite like the old Renault Turbos, very quirky cars - in 2006 me and my flatmates bought a Renault 19 Chamade aimed to be a trackday car, unfortunately it amounted to nothing and we scrapped it, like the E30 BMW 316 we bought the year before, but the one drive I had in it was entertainingAnd Renault 5's are all gay, apart from the mid-engined Turbo ^^; Quote Link to post Share on other sites
