91Trafic2.1d
New Member
Hi all , I recently purchased a 1991 Renault Trafic prima d autosleeper 2.1d as a running van but completely gutted inside, I have been slowly rebuilding the interior back into a useable camper , I also had to do a few bits like welding, replace suspension leg and brake lines etc but nothing to serious , anyway after getting her road worthy and taking her on her first good run I soon realised she's no motorway cruiser to say the least, she's comfortable at 44mph but will do 57 at a push but dont like to thrash it if you can call 57 thrashing it lol, anyway I was wondering if and when the engine does give up ( seems completely reliable) done over 2k in the last month travelling all be it very slow but when it does start failing I'd love to put a more powerful preferably turbo charged engine in & wondered if any other Renault models offered a simple swap option so I could sit at 70 at lower revs. Any advice would be very much appreciated other then scrap it as I'm kinda attached to this van
