I have a July 1990 GTA turbo, blue, full leather, that will be going on eBay next week, thought I would give a heads up on here first. I bought it a few years back from a guy who had stored it for 7 years in his garage (ref A5 GTA), someone on the forum backed out of the sale as they thought there may be a slight problem with the head gasket leaking, so I jumped in and decided, as it had 12 months mot, to drive it back home (175 miles), yup you guessed, it let go 3 miles from home in the middle of the Tyne tunnel during rush hour. The car stayed in the garage for the next couple of years till I finally got the head gasket, front rad and various cooling pipes sorted, it was moted in April. It has a full Renault service history up until it was stored, mileage is high 80's although speedo is really dodgy, so can't confirm exact mileage. It has full leather including tunnel, dash and abs. Doors don't sag, Windows , mirrors etc work. It probably needs pretty much everything doing, paint isn't great, although not horrendous, chassis will be as most others that haven't been restored, engine is fine, leather split on drivers seat, no aerial, door locks need attention. Reason for sale is the restoration of another GTA I have. If you have any questions please give me a call 07906021232. Looking for £4500.
