1983 Renault R5 Turbo 2

1983 Renault Turbo 2 Description

Really sorry to everyone on the last auction, i noticed with 20 min to go the reserve looked like it was in Canadian $ instead of US $. All fixed now. I will not be ending the auction this time, please bid to win :)

Up for auction is my 1983 Renault Turbo 2.

Not sure what this car is?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_5_Turbo

The car has just over 61,000km and the kilometers are original. This Renaultwasan originalGermany delivered car, then sold on to Japan in 1988, where it lived until I bought it and brought it to Canada.
As you can see from the pictures the car is in excellent shape. From top to bottom, this is an unmolested, rust free, original car.
Excellent original paint on all panels. All 4 fiberglass fenders and the hood are in %100 perfect shape, with no cracking or spider webbing. On a lot of these cars the fiberglass piecesreally show their age if not taken care of.
The driving experience is something everyone should experience. With the motor at your back, essentially sharing the passenger compartment, it' a drive unlike any other.
The previous owner stated the motor was rebuilt in 2009, but unfortunately I never did receive the documentation.
The car has only 3 modifications.
- beautiful set of Pansport G7 wheels. 16inch rear, 15inch front. Current tires are 245/45/16 rear, and 195/50/15 front. I do not have the original wheels. This wheel set allows you to run modern sized rubber which is much cheaper and easier to get
- A silicone hose kit, which eliminates the vacuum leak issues that arise with 30 year old rubber hoses.
- a very cool set of original Turbo 1 seats. Extremely rare and valuable.
-HKS turbo timer

The car runs, drives, stops, and accelerates as it should.

As you can see from the shine, the paint is superb. I spent around 15 hours giving it a cut/polish and wax.

I have no problem selling worldwide as long as your payment clears!

I will note, that the tires are on the older side, perfectly useable but I want to mention it.
The brake pads are on the lower end. Since I only put a few hundred KM a year on my toy cars, they would last me 10 more years, but if you plan to track it or drive it hard they wont last 10 years. New pads are 45 euro front and rear (same pad actually).
There are a couple very small scratches and 1 tiny stone chip, all very minor and nothing out of the ordinary. You cant even see them unless I pointed them out
