Rally/Racing R5 whereabouts
Sup fellas. Happy New Year!
Not sure if in the right place for this enquiry, but anyone know what happened to the Renault 5 (wasn't the GT Turbo) rally/racing car that was up for sale about 6-or-so months ago? Not sure what model it was, but it had a race pedigree, single seater, was around £1,500 and, using my best girl description, it was blue and yellow with pretty racing stickers on it
Cheers.

Think it was more early 80s R5 Alpine shell, not sure if turbo'd.
Was a bit like this but lighter blue:

A) Sorry the picture in my previous post didn't upload.
B) Glad the picture didn't upload as that is indeed the car I was referring it to and it has absolutely no yellow on it, ha..
Great looking thing, did it have a 1.4 GTX engine? Wondered what happened to it as I thought it was up for sale at a reasonable price when it went.
Cheers for hunting it out

Yeah, that's the blighter. I remembered it being up for £1,500 or did I get that massively wrong as well? Great looking car.

Rarity that the woman is the one saying not to sell it - my mrs is always moaning at me to get rid of mine, ha.
Good for him for keeping it.
