Hello there, I hope you don't mind me posting this here being a new member, but someone might be interested in this....
I've owned this for a few years now always with the intention of getting it up on the road but frankly progress has been slow due to extreme laziness.
Its an 88 E plate GTA turbo showing 107k. It still needs quite a bit of work to get it up and running again. Since I have had it I have done a few bits and pieces, I replaced both head gaskets and fitted a new clutch slave cylinder. I haven't quite finished re-assembling everything but I don't think there is any reason it shouldn't start once everything has been re-fitted.
I have also fitted a brand new garrett turbocharger, not a recon, this came from garrett direct. I hate to think how much one would cost from renault.
Its been stored at roadspeed in stroud for a couple of years, during which the only progress was to have a fiddle with the brakes. They seem to have misplaced the stainless steel exhaust which was unused, but have promised to find it.
Its been resprayed Silver (decent finish but there is a couple of runs in the laquer I have spotted) it was originally the alpine metallic blue. There is some damage to the back spoiler and the front isn't perfect but not bad. I have both the original alloys and also the weller black steelies that can be seen in the photo's. Back tyres are shot.
The interior really needs a good clean, its dusty and the carpets show a bit of green, but its dry and definately salvagable.
Ive loads of boxes of bits, i think pretty much everything is there to complete the job. It just requires someone with a bit of enthusiasm and time to get all the little jobs done
The car is now in my garage in Gloucester, but I am moving to Germany with work am weighing up the likelyhood that i will ever actually get round to sorting it out, hence its up for sale should someone pay the right price.
I am asking £2000 ONO which is a bargain, considering it needs very few parts to complete, just time and effort expending. Its gotta be worth double that once complete.
This offer does not apply to any dopey Alan Shearer lookalike geordie gets based in France. Sorry but those are the rules....
