144 - 1984 RENAULT 5 TURBO 2

1984 RENAULT 5 TURBO 2 Vehicle Registration Certificate: French Chassis Number: VF1822000F0000064 An icon of the homologated series of the 1980s and the Group B rally legacy • Rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, powered by a 160 ch turbocharged engine • Turbo 2 generation featuring the standardized interior layout and steel opening panels • Original French example that has been regularly maintained Introduced in 1982 as the successor to the original 5 Turbo, the Renault 5 Turbo 2 was developed to maintain the model’s presence in international competition and rally homologation while optimizing production costs. Built on a mid-rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive platform, the Turbo 2 retains the wider track and aggressive mechanical setup of its predecessor, powered by a 1,397 cm³ turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 160 chevaux. To make the vehicle more accessible and practical, the Turbo 2 incorporates standardized interior components from the Renault lineup and replaces the aluminum panels (doors, roof, and tailgate) with steel ones. A total of 3,167 Turbo 2 units were produced between 1983 and 1986. The vehicle shown here was first registered on October 19, 1984. Painted red (color code 705) with beige upholstery, it remained in the hands of its first owner until 2004. In 2011, it was purchased by the current owner’s father, at which time the Turbo 2 had 99,000 km on the odometer. Subsequently, the vehicle underwent a complete repaint in 2015, a procedure documented in the 2025 appraisal report. In 2025, a general overhaul was performed at a cost of 2,100 euros. With just over 101,000 km of verified original mileage, this example remains true to its original configuration, featuring well-maintained bodywork and a well-preserved interior. With its livery, history, and documented maintenance record, it stands out as a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after and charismatic models in the history of rallying and French automotive production. 1984 RENAULT 5 TURBO 2 Registration Document: French Chassis Number: VF1822000F0000064 An icon of 1980s homologation specials and Group B rally heritage • Mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout powered by a 160 hp turbocharged engine • Turbo 2 generation featuring a standardized interior layout and steel opening panels • Original French example that has received regular maintenance Introduced in 1982 to succeed the original 5 Turbo, the Renault 5 Turbo 2 was developed to maintain the model’s presence in international motorsport and rally homologation while streamlining production costs.
