    Returning to the GTT Scene After 20 Years Out!

    First post!

    Hi,

    My name is Matt from Buckinghamshire. I bought my first GTT back in 1993...a white H-reg. I kept it for three years then sold it on in 1996. Then in the noughties I settled down and got married and my GTT days became a distant memory.

    Now in my late thirties, I decided to revisit those happy days of GTT ownership and have just bought myself 'Raggy' from a fellow member...another white H-reg.

    My plan is to return the exterior and interior to original condition. I've always enjoyed working on the bodywork and valeting, so this project is right up my street. However, I've never been anything of a mechanic so the engine will stay as it is.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to joining in on the forums and getting to know fellow GTT owners and enthusiasts. I used to be a member of the old Renault 5 GT Turbo club back in the day...but there were no internet forums back then
