    Re: glanza or renault 5 gt turbo

    went out in a glanza today, closest feeling car to a 5 gt turbo. but still it just made me want to get my 5 on the road, not sell it for a glanza. Very nice drive tho. never been out in a completely standard 5 so difficult to compare. The thing that sways me personally to the 5 is its character, the fact that its been around 20+ years everyone knows of it and the comoradary(spelling?) between owners is great. also the fact that its easy enough to modify and change yourself. i personally wouldnt want to hack at things on a glanza. The interior was pretty poor on the glanza also.

    First post!

    the starlet turbo started in 1986 with the ep71 turbo.

    the ep82 gt turbo started production in 90 also making it a 2o year old hot hatch.
    in regards to desgn and build quality its in a different league to the renault 5 turbo.

    thats not to say both are fast.

    they are way way more tunable,

    + 4x4 versions were available in japan to turbo

    yep, to be honest we all know they are better built, and more tunable and more expensive to buy. but they havent got that 'je ne sais quoi'

    There nice cars, my mate has one, but the interior is disgraceful! The roof lining is like a tent! There little angry micras with a turbo! They have major tune potential, I'd rather have a pulsar though

    I like them.. but doubt I'd get one. I'd much rather spend £5k on something nicer, bigger, and more powerful.
