The rear seats were removed and replaced with a midship-mounted 160hp 1.4-liter inline-four engine that was paired with a turbocharger and fuel injection technology to provide a top speed of 200km\/h and an impressive 0-400m time of just fifteen seconds. Renault was not satisfied with simply changing the engine, though, giving the 5 Turbo double wishbone suspension and ventilated brake discs. The body was also updated and had prominent over-fenders; its use of aluminium roof and doors, as well as the plastic bonnet and fenders, meant that the car weighed in at a mere 910kg. Inside the car was a dashboard with no less than ten different meters, and an interior with liberal use of leather. The Renault 5 Turbo was able to put its money where its mouth was, taking a debut rally win in 1981 in Monte-Carlo and going on to compete in numerous events during its career.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a 1\/24 scale plastic model assembly kit.
