renault sport badge???

on the tailgate of my car(yes sorry a 25 v6 turbo)but you are all so helpful!!i have a small badge which is silver/white/yellow in design,my car was supplied by renault birmingham from new,i think from what i have learn,t this badge is because the car came from a renault sport supplying dealership(big one birmingham)is this true,or is it some renault tuning badge,i have seen a few pics of gta,s with it,any ideas??

lets see a picture of what you have?

si i have no pics availiable as i have a crap pc!!!!but i did have somewhere an old motor/autocar mag from the time,it has a black gta on the rear advertised and i seem to remember it showd the badge(or colours)someone must have a pic,or the badge on there car,DG might be able to help???

Large yellow,medium silver,small white
I,ve got one ,but you can see it best on

Not sure if it's a specific Alpine thing,but if it is ,GET IT OFF YOUR asp

good man spot on,thats the one,so what does it stand for???renault sport centre,or renault tuning etc??

i broke an E reg 25 v6 turbo,and this had the badge aswell,i think only certain dealerships where aloud to sell gtas/25 v6 turbos,so they got this badge to note this?

I'd like to get hold of the 'Alpine' on the intercooler.

Anybody got one they'd like to sell

Weren't they the colours of the Renault F1 team at the time. It's simply a Renault Sport badge stuck on by Renault Sport dealers I think. My car has one too, although I think mine's stuck on the wrong way round!

our RTE said this,at the time it was the renault racing colours,but i seem to think it represents a renault sports centre

just looked at my badge,yellow/silver/white appears to the right way round??

If you look at the badge on Clee's car; if you rotate it 90deg. clockwise so the yellow is at the top, that's how mine is stuck on. But looking at a Renaault Brochure I have, Clee's is on the correct way. Don't know why they stuck mine on wrong!

Mine has the yellow to the left too.

Yes, thats right.

The badge was used by Renault Performance Centres. If your GTA came from one of these it carried the badge, if it came from a normal Renault dealer in didn't have the badge. Mine came from Old Oak in Enfield and has the badge. These performance centres were listed on the old GTA car mag adverts so if you have a copy of CAR mag for example Feb 87 you will see an advert on page 62 and all will make sense!

Oh yea, if any one wants one I think I have a couple spare somewhere that I brought a few years back at a Renault show in the bargain bucket (they have been known to drop off after a while when the sticky pad dries out so I brought them for 50p and kept just in case!!!!
