The Renault 5 Turbo was a special version of the inimitable 5, developed for rally races. With a 1.4-liter inline-4 turbo engine in place of the rear seats the Turbo had a midship setup and used lightweight aluminum and plastic panels. The works car won the first global rally of 1981 and was a familiar sight near the top of timesheets thereafter.
