Description
For Sale - 1988 Renault Alpine GTA ATMOS
A rare Renault GTA ATMOS for sale in the desirable and rare black paintwork. Current mileage is 44, 913 with large documented history file and receipts. Comes with 12 months MOT
The car has been maintained meticulously and regardless of cost by Renault specialist John Law to make this car one of the best low mileage examples in the UK.
The interior is in near mint condition and one of the best I have seen for the year, and the car always gets positive attention and admiration at all the car events I have visited.
I estimate I have spent approximately £12, 000 - £13, 000 recommissioning this car to a very high-standard and eradicating any maintenance issues, while hugely improving the reliability, performance and drivability.
