We've been over run by response from Renault 5 Turbo enthusiasts for general information, technical information, specifications cars and parts for sale, service locations, ad infinitum.
It's been a wonderful surprise to receive so much enthusiasm for a car that has been out of production for more than 10 years. Nevertheless, we've had to cut back taking telephone calls on these cars.
In time we will install all sorts of information related to Renault 5 Turbos on this Internet Site
We have an extensive library of information including reprints of the various workshop manuals and all of the Renault Sport parts catalogs and technical bulletins.
We've now begun to take announcements of cars and parts for sale please check those pages for information.

We will clarify the facts as much as possible. Netzens are invited to comment, ask questions and in anyway critique this net site for the purpose of arriving at simple facts regarding the Renault 5 turbo.

For Your Information:

1. 1 R5 Turbo - "Version T300". This was a Maxi 5 wanna be, made by Export Sales / Roy Berry in Germany and marketed here by Export Sales / Peter Schoemer, Florida. There is an English language book on the R5 Turbo that erroneously credits Sun International with having imported these cars. Sun International was never involved in importing or selling these versions. These cars have terrible turbo lag, don't seem to have any internal engine modifications that would help performance and durability. They were claimed to have 300 hp. Out personal opinion is that they were intended to copy the Maxi 5 solution. The workmanship is terrible. Our personal opinion is that they were a fraud. Fake. If anyone has verifiable explanations for these cars or experience with them we would like to post it on this site.
