How much fun can a car be?!

I have had mine for 5 months, and I cannot think of a car I would rather have (within reason!).

Like someone else said, if you're feeling down, just get in it and give it a blast... you'll soon be grinning like a madman!

This I can affirm !

1989 Renault 5 GT Turbo Phase 2 1.4 turbo petrol

Faults:

Nothing much apart from when the steering wheel snapped off and the car somersaulted across a kerb. Sub frame got bent, front bumper and foglight got mashed, wheel got bent and the steering wasn't right.

General Comments:

Fastest car in town. This car rocks. 35ml lowering springs on the front, a nightmare of a job to do the back, but it was worth it. Massive Impreza style scoop on the bonnet looks the business. 15" hoops with 45 series tyres and this machine was starting to look good. A full peco exhaust system with a 3"pipe and we were humming.

This car is amazing fun to drive. If you're feeling down just get in, give it the gun and you'll have a smile on your face at about 3500rpm. Let your friends drive it too. But don't sit in the passenger seat, let them take it on their own. You'll save yourself about 10 heart attacks man. Can't wait to get another one.

BYE BYE GTI!!!!

1989 Renault 5 GT Turbo Phase 2 1.8 turbo petrol

Faults:

When I modified the engine ( from 1.4 to 1.8 ) I broke the turbo after 20km.

General Comments:

Well I think everybody who got the GT turbo has to change their engine...

Now I have 220 bhp instead 120 and the speed is 255 km/h instead 200.

Do it and you'll appreciate it.

Bye.
