The Renault 5 Turbo was introduced as a road car in 1980 and won the Monte Carlo Rally on it's first competition outing in 1981 at the hands of Jean Ragnotti. It was a force to be reckoned with during the golden age of rally known as group B, even against the 4 wheel drive legends of the Audi Quattro and Lancia Delta S4.
