The Death Eaters, Chapter 3: Renault R5 Turbo and Clio V6
"For the latest installment in Hagerty’s Death Eaters, we’re looking at two Gallic landmarks: The 1983–1986 Renault R5 Turbo 2, and the 2001–2003 Renault Clio V6. Each was an expensive and limited-production car, and neither was officially sold here."
Interesting article by Hagerty USA. Was surprised to see that [v6plaque]408[/v6plaque] was exported to the US in 2012, but that it still wears its UK plate (the rear is partially covered by a Tennessee plate), and appears to be well and truly put through its paces, alongside an R5 Turbo 2.
From the V6 Registry:
"Exported to America July 2012. On display at Lane Motor Museum Tennessee.
Black side pods & tinted rear lights."
...still sports black side pods but the rear lights have been changed to those from the Phase 2.
