just thinking back, probably the worst car i've ever had, but when it was working the best. please log in to view this image a ****ty litttle french turbo thing.. never had a french car since.
I didn't think the Turbo 5 was that bad! Now if you were talking about the Espace, that had to be a fooking clunk on wheels.
Well I must admit the only Turbo 5, I drove was a brand new one. Compared to other Renault's at the time, it seemed an improvement, and would appeal to the younger driver. Although it was never going to compete with a Fiesta. My mate had a 5 and he drove like a dick, but them days there was no speed cameras, and more or less any lunatic could take to the road. I had a Capri Mk1, yes and in red, and yes, I was one of those dicks that wrote it off
The back end on a Capri was notorious, the story goes one icy day in winter, with an inexperienced driver behind the wheel, the 3.0 whatever beast was not going to stop along a country lane, and telegraph poles really do hurt
