Evening all. Just got a new 5 and amongst the folder or paperwork is this 1997 GT Eye Mag. I've uploaded the photos for anyone who has not seen this. Unless of course this is old hat and already on the site.
There is also reference to the Benetton edition 5.
Wonder if any of these cars are still alive?
I think it was Goher that was one of J510's original owners??????
Nice. Theres a guy on there that lives right by me in Wallasey!
Ohms was the first lad on here to own it iirc. He had a private reg on it.Originally Posted by Hoolio
That's awesome. Hope its a typo unless someone else knows of a "t3 activator"
Yep, you're right that's him.
LOL, just seen this. I also have this magazine somewhere.
My car is still about, although locked in my garage!!
Nice
I've got stacks of old mags with loads of 5 that been featured. Would take me forever to scan and load them all up, mainly because I don't own a scanner.
I think my mum would like them gone from her house... And I don't think that's because of the soft porn pictures on the front of each mag.
Nicemore pics needed asap
Awesome read thanks very much
N.B I was 4/5 when this was published
How to make someone feel old!!!
I was 17 so my driving life had only just began. I lusted after a GT Turbo but still being at school studying for A levels ment that all I could afford was a 1.1L Escort which I picked up for £100.
I still think that when I was 17-21 was the best time to be a young driver. You had RS Turbos, GT Turbos, XR3is, XR2s, Metro Turbos, Uno Turbos, 205 GTis, Mk2 Golfs ets all cruising around town. I have owned must of the fore mentioned during this time.... Surely the Late 90s early 2000s was the best era for being a young lad and owning a car....??
Goher. True to your word you haven't sold it 17 years on! You should pop down to where that mag feature was done and replicate that photo.LOL, just seen this. I also have this magazine somewhere.

Was it at Cheltenham rolling road day? Look familiar as I went there with my 1st turbo'd car which was black with yellow scoop bonnet phase 1.5 r5gtt lol

Hi mate, I did go to Cheltenham once.
Good old days, might get a bit enthusiastic and get it taxed and mot'd, mint it up and come to a meet soon.
That's what I said. Had it 23 years now.Goher. True to your word you haven't sold it 17 years on! You should pop down to where that mag feature was done and replicate that photo.
Lol, if I went down there again, the car would look better and me considerably worse LOL.
