    Renault 5 GT Turbo Tungy J Plate, 97k miles

    After purchasing this original from a local member with an engine which rattles, dash which had lots of holes in it and awful interior we started work on it, only to then sell to a friend or then had it locked up in his garage for a while. I have now bought it back off him to finish off the work to then get it through an MOT.

    Details of the car:

    J plate in Tungy non sunroof model
    97k miles
    Some service history but not complete
    Engine has been rebuilt recently

    Engine spec:
    For purpose of this sale its a standard engine, but this may have a performance cam, but not taken it apart to see.
    This has a rebuilt carb which starts up on the key
    New Engine wiring loom
    New Valeo Radiator
    New Alternator
    New Clutch Cable
    New Clutch Pedal
    New Chinese hoses - all brand new jubilee clips to tidy it up
    SFS boost hoses - Aftermarket broom handle to blank off the dump valve hole
    BB Performance Lobster top
    Baileys Head Tank
    T25 turbo, 49 rear housing I believe
    Pace Intercooler
    Chrome rocker cover

    Body wise
    Its in reasonable condition, could do with a couple of bits touching up here and there, have got pictures of the bits which need doing.
    But plus thing is there is no sign of rust around the windscreen, sills, or around any of the other windows.
    This does not come with original stickers though
    With original grill and tow eye cap
    Front bumper has had its strips smoothed though but rear has still got them remaining.
    Doors have been delocked
    Clear fogs, but does come with yellow fogs (not new)
    Smoked front indicators
    +2 x RTOC window stickers (which goes for £11 on ebay )

    Exhaust is a 2.5" complete system with a 3" backbox inwardly rolled
    2.5" downpipe wrapped

    Suspension is full koni suspension with 50mm lowering springs

    Interior
    Dash been replaced with no holes
    Interior is non torn apart from drivers seat is slightly different type of material, can only tell when looking close in my opionion, Original mats, grey carpet, black parcel shelf including working boot light with covers.

    Bad bits:
    Always is some, this has been delocked, but no fob to unlock, so going through boot at the moment till sorted. Two spots have the laquer peeling off the roof.

    This will come with 12 months MOT once we have finished the last few things off to this with what we are wanting to do, mainly sorting out door mirrors back to GT turbo and swapping over a few plastics to make them look tidy. Just being a bit picky really with the car as want it looking good as possible for the new owner.

    This car is up for £2k with no offers.

    Will put pictures up on my profile tonight as need to pop out now.

    Any questions please ask and I will try and answer them as best as I can as I know J plate cars dont come around that often.

    Thank you

    At the moment not had a chance to sort this out, alarm has been cut out of wiring loom due to the complete mess it was in. I have an original key fob spare which I could swap over and try out when I get a chance but getting car MOT'd is a first really.
