Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Rich Hanlon - 12 Aug 2014 You're into Espaces aren't you Claire and Phil? How's about this one for the collection? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROLLS-ROYCE-VIPER-C201-JET-ENGINE-GAS-TURBINE-POWERED-RENAULT-ESPACE-PROJECT-/321471770569 I#d say it's putting out a few more BHP than the standard 2.2 diesel. Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Dangermouse - 12 Aug 2014 Nothing unsafe about that whatsoever 8) Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Chris Williams - 12 Aug 2014 Amazing, not sure what to comment on first a. The surplus stock jet engine? The noise if you ever got it going or the fact that it would try to pull you/the dash/widscreen etc through it whilst running. As Dermot wrote nothing unsafe there at all lol Chris Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - MML - 12 Aug 2014 Thought this sounded familiar http://www.darwinawards.com/darwin/darwin1995-04.html Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Nick H - 12 Aug 2014 I don't see any flaws...... :wink: Mount that engine slightly differently and you have the ultimate jet snowblower. I reckon that would be perfect for keeping the drive snow and ice free this winter :lol: . Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Rich Hanlon - 13 Aug 2014 Yeah, it needs a safety label to remind you to put the windows down before starting up... Just don't leave any spare change in the ashtray, imagine a Viper going at full chat ingesting a 2p coin! Wouldn't fancy being within quarter of a mile!! Does it come with free ear plugs? Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Dangermouse - 13 Aug 2014 I think I'd rather have this plane engined car: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0_v97cnTXQ#t=16[/youtube] up for auction in FL, or maybe CA, it's hard to tell http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/car ... 61532.html Re: Modded Renault Espace anyone? - Guinney1971 - 21 Aug 2014 we had a giggle about that when it was initially posted on the Renault Owners Club FB page.
