Oh my God!!

You are a brave man

I had a 1988 R5 GT Turbo and it was a death-trap!! I had to take the engine and gearbox out just to change the clutch, shocking.

I'll have a wee look about for the manual but I don't know if it will cover your model.

Good luck (you're gonna need it)

That was my dream car in my teens - had about 10 models of them. What a car - 1400CC, with about 170HP!.

I personally had a Gordini - non turbo. Bodywork like paper, but went like a rocket!. Had a powerband like a 2 stroke motorbike. It used to redline in 5th gear! - equating to about 120MPH.

Good luck to you.
