Really should have updated this earlier, collected the car on saturday and what a machine! 

 

 

 

 

Big bore

 

 

 

Spotted at a local meet!

 

 

 

Expect lots of updates got some Ice and lots of odds and ends on order!

This is grand, well done.  A hot Renault 9 is fantastically inappropriate, like seeing your auntie in La Perla.

Early phase 1s did, the turbos had the same lamps as the 11 and so did the later R9s prior to the facelift

Yup. My dad's Renault 9 1.2 Broadway had the quad lamps. Was right bonny little thing. Not half as bonny as this turbo though. Fabulous.

That looks lovely, i love quad square headlamps

Loving this! Dad had a silver 1.4 GTL non turbo. Cracking motor. Lovely engines to work on too.

 

At the risk of sounding like a pervert, I want to fiddle with your valve clearances until they are a tight fit under my 20 thou feelers!

1.4 Turbo same engine as the 5GTT. Nice and cheap tax, and tuning potential, winning!
