F554 kCG was a white 11 turbo owned by both myself and Tiny Tim. Tim ended up selling it on but canā€™t remember to who but they wrapped it around a tree!. Mot ran out in April 2009 so Iā€™m guessing it got written off :(

Thanks for your contribution @Beardo , I've added it to the second post in this thread.

Are you the Original Beardo from back in the day? Fair play to you mate if so, I remember reading some of your posts on the old R*OC club!! Hope all is well?

Hi, you have my white one on your list, but not my black turbo. Both locked up in garages. The white 11 has not been touched in 15 years or so, but the black one I got on the road about 6 years ago, ran it off and on for a year then parked it up again. But Iā€™m feeling the need for full restoration šŸ˜
Ps... I must have one of the first and one of the last ones.... black (B reg 1984), white (F reg 1989)

Many thanks

Paul Hobson

E182 DMJ - Owned by a chap called Joe Franks who bought it on 1996 for Ā£350 with a leaky rad and shot steering rack. He remembers constantly looking at the temperature gauge and bleeding it every time he drove itšŸ˜† that aside, it was a wicked comfortable drive and when it ran nice she used to see gtes and xr3is off šŸ˜‰

Bought a Silver rolled Mk1 Renault 11 Turbo in 1989 registration: A608 MEL with 44,000 miles on the clock. Transferred all the running gear into a Mk1 Red Renault 11 GTL Registration A663 JOD in 1990.
Ran it and modified it for many years. Took it to Santa Pod and Avon Park Raceway many times. Regretfully, I scrapped this car and fitted the engine into an MG Midget which I still have. Now converted to fuel injection using Suzuki GSXR 1000 throttle bodies and Emerald ECU.
