Look what I've found.

Renault 11 GTL:cool:

:)This was parked up on a local estate, had been there for a week or 2 and not moved, was chatting with the chaps at work and as it happened it was one of there son in laws late fathers and was up for sale.

So I bought it, couldn't let a local idiot butcher it or let her go to the yard. I'm torn what to do to it.

1. Leave it completely standard
2. Leave it completely standard but with a Turbo lump in it.

Only 2 previous owners
93,000 on the clock
Totally standard inside and out.
Solid underneath
Runs lovely.

What d'yall think?

Pictures posted!

Re: Look what I've found.

after bein out in it saturday, my vote is replace the suspension with brand new factory suspension so it does roll over as much, and just a stock GTT lump in it

I've seen a few retro / modern engine combo's I can see the attraction, but the C1J seems almost too obvious. I'd love too see faces of people when it takes off.

I knew you'd say that. But no, naughty Mark, bad Mark. I'd love to do that, but this could be the ultimate sleeper. I've got a while to make my mind up, as I'm not touching it until the 5 is back up and running.

Minus the Cosworth and you'd have two good reliable engines to work with. Although the SR20 runs 8.5:1 as standard, so you need very little boost to make good power.

Looks like a tidy old bus, most of the ph1 11s went to the scrapyard many years ago.
