these are rare as rocking horse doodoo aint they?

i thought they were rear engines RWD tho

 

The Gordinia was only a special; edition thingy

Jim sure not your thinking if the very early turbos

 

Im sure the propper gordini's were as wide as fook & mid engined

 

The wide arched rear engined ones were called a Turbo2 if i recall!

 

that is a gordini

the rwd version was was called a turbo 2 model, think the name also had gordini in it too though, but memory is failing me on this

 

Yep Spadge is right they where called the Turbo2

Always thought the Gordinis where natrually aspritated

 

There were also Gordini's and Gordini Turbo's!

 

Jim, these are probably what you are thinking off

Turbo 1



Turbo 2

 

These are the ones that are worth Big Money.............................




I have only ever seen one on the road.

 

Correct mate.

 

There were a few at the Rally Super Car Day @ Combe, They look pukka !!

Al...

 

fookin phat

 

Still made of cardborad though

 

jim- there are 2 of the original tubbies (rear engined) around bromley- one red, and one white, both are fooking loud chap!

 

The engine in that car is in lengthways though? And it appears to have rear strut towers? Could be RWD??

 

They are front engine front wheel drive, my mate had 2, he was gonna space frame the front and drop a YB lump into it, they where proper rotton though!

 

the gordini turbo is an early fwd turbo (suck through not blow through carb) 5... nowt special really just pretty rare
the turbo 1 was the daddy - engine in the back, rwd, efi and alloy panels
the turbo 2 was similar to the turbo 1 but a bit more softy and no alloy panels
Cheers,
Ben

 

hmmmm a track car

 

My buddy has a R5 Alpine. It's pretty cool and rare.

 

UGLY PEICES OF SHIT

 

Always had a bit of a soft spot for the Renault 5 Turbo. Shame you don't see many about now. See even fewer nice ones

 

Ive wanted to get hold of a gordini turbo for ages...

The engine is that way, but they FWD, a lot of cars are, many Audis, most Reno 21s, etc etc

Same block and head as the mid engine RWD GrpB racers tho, and good for 350bhp

Later GTTs have same block but different (not as good) head, the gordini head is the bollocks.

They run a carb BEFORE the turbo, ie the fuel is sucked thru the turbo with the air!

And im seriously considering going n having a gander...

 

buy it steve you know you want another 5 turbo.
(shame it looks horrible though )
