The entry
The Renault 5 Turbo.
The 5 Turbo relocated its turbocharged four-cylinder engine to a mid-mounted, rear-wheel-drive layout behind widened bodywork, a significant departure from the standard front-engined Renault 5.
It was built to meet homologation requirements for Renault's rally and racing efforts of the era.
We review your Renault 5 Turbo on the engineering behind it, its own history and its condition, not against a generic pricing model.
What we look for
What we weigh in a Renault 5 Turbo.
Every Renault 5 Turbo is reviewed on the same four things as any other entry in the Index. Gaps are normal; tell us what you have. Neither a modification nor outstanding finance rules a car out on its own.
- 01
Documented history: service records and provenance for a Renault 5 Turbo, however complete.
- 02
Originality and modifications: what has changed, and why.
- 03
Condition, honestly described, including anything outstanding.
- 04
Paperwork and finance still to sort.
