Exceptional performance is generated by the light weight of the car, the modified engine, and the 4:11 LSD. The combination of a stiffened chassis and the Group B suspension make for flat cornering with controllable but large amounts of power on oversteer...an absolute riot to drive!

The Rogers Racing TVTV engine has been completely blueprinted, has steel cylinder liners, a specially modified high lift camshaft, heavy duty valve springs, head modifications, and a modified fuel and ignition system. Leakdown was just checked (2/3/09) and the leakage was less than 5% on all cylinders.

All parts for these cars are still readily available from several sources in France, England, and a few here in the U.S.

One of my favorite cars ever. My friends never understood why I liked that car. GL w/sale

 

Awesome car! A neighbor back in Ireland had one, and that thing could move! Sounded great, too.

Is there a CO detector in there? any issues having the engine in the backseat? or is there glass dividing off the passenger compartment that I'm not seeing?

 

Woah! Cool little Frenchie! You don't see these pop up for sale very often, and especially not one like this. Good luck with the sale!

 

No divider separating the engine compartment...but I haven't passed out yet so I guess the exhaust is making it all the way out! I've experience CO poisoning during a race, I thought it was heat exhaustion at first...that was not fun.

Gorgeous R5!!

Its rare to see these in the US! Especially ones in this caliber!
