Good Points

The crude thump when the turbo came in, loss of traction in a straight line at 55mph, these are good points? Wow I was 17 in 1986 been driving two months and I could catch the backend on ice at 65mph, steering feel the car was part of you, the rear suspension was also more sorted than the 205.


Bad Points

195 tyres, low weight and no ABS the car could be like a sledge if it was damp or worse, as an everyday car could not recommend the car to anyone, always had to make sure I had change for a payphone.


General Comments

Would recommend the Renault 5 GT Turbo now though if it was to be used as a paperweight, though not so good at that because of its low kerbweight. This is one amazing car. Though one tank before speed cameras went away up the A7 at 19mpg eek!
