Where did you see this ?
Should be the Renault 2.0L Turbo diesel, not too many around.

I have no use for it, but wouldn't mind sneakin a peak...

You planning on grabbing it ?

Take it.  Even if you don't use it, there will be too many vultures (like myself) interested in it for it to stay there long.   :twisted:

it was hard to get parts for those things 10 years ago, I can't imagine how hard they would be to keep going now :?

I had a customer who had one, if his father inlaw wasn't a top notch diesel tech it would have gone straight to the junkyard. I think he eventually got rid of it about 8 years ago, too much work, low on power, no heat in the cab. :?
