A Stalling Renault 5 GT Turbo Is Restored To Its 80s Magazine Cover Glory | Wheeler Dealers 

Wish they had shown full episodes, like it used to be...

That was my passed best friend's car. He loved that car, he had a white one before the blue E reg car.

That's an F1 mechanic for you... thinking outside the box and getting the manifold ceramic coated. Genius!

Elvis is the best!

Doesn't look like someone deliberately poked a screwdriver through that diaphragm at all lol

Looking good all car s done with you two we send you nuff respect from L's 11 family

Great car, would love to see what they used to shoehorn Mike into that seat though 😂😂

Had one in black on an E reg back in 93. Pocket rocket.

Far better again that its back home, mike done well getting elvis on board, its a great show along with car sos

The flashing curser neans mike wront that email himself 😂 elvis is a good guy mike was always the problem

I had a Black F plater… I had it repainted and added clear indicator lenses and fogs. Lovely looking little car but very much a fast metal shed on wheels. The head gasket went twice on me and in the end I just had enough of it. I sold it for just £2,200.00 even though it was a minter. This was all the way back in 1999.

Little monsters on fuel, they drink more than an afterburner. Beautiful little car, takes me back

Sir hope you have a full episode of your show here in yt so that people like me that don't access on cable TV can watch your show....

I had a red 86 one . Loved it

My neighbour was selling gt turbo for 800 euros 15 years ago...And it was in good condition

Amazing pocket rockets! I owned one for 14 years, a phase 2, black late G plate, 1990 car, pushing 204 BHP at the wheels. Mainly GT Tuning modifications to the car, quite a number of them, at quite a cost! I dearly miss my GT Turbo & am currently looking for another one. If anybody out there knows of the where-abouts of my previous R5 Turbo, reg G182 VBU, please get in touch as I would make u an offer that would be hard to refuse. Thanks Jon

I love Renault 5 turbo, but the mid-engined and RWD version. She's my fave among (2 seats) hatchback sport cars. I love her even more than clio 3.0 V6 sport.

there was a recall on phase 2 for the cooling fan were they added a fuse inline, mine was had the fuse fitted, E reg 5 like that is a phase 1 just with phase 2 bits on it

i owned and drove one of these R5GT Turbo as a 19 year old "kid", fresh owner of a drivers licence , it was insane. only god knows, how i survived this 🙂

0-60 in 7.5 secs in the 80's!!! Sunbeam lotus from the 70's ... Hold my beer!!!

90s Clio Williams. LOVE F7R 😀

They should account for labor, not just parts, to have an estimation of the real cost of the vehicle after repairs.

One of my dreamed cars R5, i would like to see Mr. China repairs one of those but this one is ok

Friend of mine had a lovely early Phase 1 with a few engine mods. Quick as hell. Shame it boiled the fuel and caught fire one night

Didn’t include the cost of the new tyres?

First time I’ve seen carb cleaner being used correctly lol

where's the rest of the episode??!

they were ALWAYS STALLING mate. I had one. It often got overheated. then the fan ran for ages. then the battery got flat and you stuffed.

I loved wheeler dealers I loved my r5. When I saw the title I got expectations which aren't met in any way try to find an r5 turbo which only needs a carburetor tuneup and very minor cosmetic work. Is such a disappointment.

The original rims were the turbo rims! The current ones are from the GTE.

Deffo not fully refurbed that carb

i had 1 for 3 years in the 90s put a bigger turbo on it was great then someone wanted it badly and paid £2000 more than i paid for it then on his way home he crashed it going round a roundabout 10 min later. then i bought a brand new Citroen saxo vts and i have had it 22 years less than 50.000 miles

So, how much etc???

I like wheeler dealers watched it from the start but the lies of how much parts are is getting silly now

It’s strange that a tyre company uses the original tread pattern when modern tread patterns and compounds are superior

wonder how much they flogged it back to her for - £9K?

Cursor next to the email.....

They say the only car for a hot hatch today is an abarth 595 nothing eles can compare

Legendas indisponíveis

Can only think of Ali G when I see these.

Defo looked better when they got it

Gee. I wonder why cars moved to fuel injection.

Elvis worked in F1? Really? He's never mentioned that before.

Convert to fuel injection?

Elvis acting skills for camera, Are pretty damn terrible tho 🤣🤣

Charlotte sold her Renault gt 5 turbo to Mike on wheeler dealers

Head gaskets and turbos gone at around 40k miles is what I remember.. I had 2 uno turbos, bulletproof motors and so much fun to drive, sadly, like chickens teeth to find now

Every car here is junk
