| 2x Renault 5GT Turbo Classic Race Cars FOR SALE For Sale (1984) edit C50821 | | | I have two 5GT Turbo coupe Racers for sale. Both these cars competed in the R5 reunion race at thruxton in 2004. The red car (driven by Dave Cox) qualified on pole and finished 2nd - Its first outing on track! The Pink car (driven by Jim Edwards JNR) qualified 2nd and finished 1st.
Mark Fish motorsport been running R5GT's successfully since the championship originally started and also ran them in the 'super Coupe Cup' - winning the class championship countless times. (A link to a news story about the team with a reference to the 5GT days - http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=52012&FS=RUMCC)
THE RED CAR- more pictures at: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/600443.htm
This was built for a customer after his original rolled. No expense Spared - COMPLETE strip/respray. IMMACULATE THROUGHOUT, only completing one race from new. This car was built from an excellent road shell and would therefore be very easy to get an MOT and put on the road. The customer never saw the car (we dry stored it) and eventually we bought the car and prepared it for the thruxton race.
Comes with 5 slicks and 4 wets (not road legal)
£4750 ONO
THE PINK CAR- more pictures at: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/600485.htm
One of the Original 'Radbourne Racing' cars. Owned by several race drivers from our team with various success (Bought by Mark to drive in the Thruxton Race, but sold the drive to Jim Edwards JNR - Who won the 5GT Elf Championship Against Mark and Micky Allen in 1990)

This car has never suffered any major damage but does carry a few years of 'battle scars' on the panels

These cars would be great Track cars but are also eligible for several Race championships.
Could also be put on the road for serious looks!!
Appreciating classics.
