Have done a rebuild on the engine. But having troubles getting oil to the turbo. Not getting any oil pressure atm so can't start it up.
What have you done to yours?

Just to throw it in the mix I'm not too far from Cambridge either I'm in a small village called islehambe good to sort out some meets in summer. I have done a coastal meet before starting in kings Lynn and running on some nice roads along the coast stopping for some sights and food. Then end up in Yarmouth for the night
be good to catch up with some old members and meet some new ones.
Looking good. Make me want to finish my black.

Thankyou for all the positive feedback guys, very much appreciated
I'm right up for some local meets this summer and have a look at some nice cars (if the summer actually turns up)
Yes it was a full respray in Renault 5 black, new inner & outer seals you know the story. I done it myself with professional help. Shall get a thread going so you can see what's been done. Underside is as clean as the outside of the car but I should imagine that won't last long.
So buzzing when the weather is dry for a spin
