matt1122 Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I don't know the direct translation, but it says here is where all of the T-5Rs went. The yellow part represents the number of yellow T-5Rs and the black part represents the number of black T-5Rs. In total there were 5000 cars produced.

WhiteT5 Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 It's Dutch. Ask Johann to translate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1122 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 It's dutch, and my translation correctly relays exactly what it says even if the wording would be different.IE, I believe it might say "There have been" rather than "There were." ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrik Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 850 T-5-R was only manufactured in 1995 and only in the color yellow, black and 2500 Olivegreen. After 1995 the car was called 850-R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibim Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 It's a very interesting list, surprising the number in Japan. What interests me is that I have definatly seen some yellow T5-R's here in South Africa, so they must have been imported 2nd hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibim Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 What would also be interesting is to find a similar list for the S70R? Or does anyone know how many in total were produced worldwide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrik Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 The S70-R is rare; V70-R on the other hand is more common. Remember that there is a difference between the 850 T5-R and the 850-R. T5-R has 225hp with a boost at full throttle that give 240hp for 30 seconds. The 850-R has 250hp except for the ones with automatic gearbox that has the same setup at the older 850 T5-R. The 850 T5 has 225hp except for the once with 2.0 lit engine made for the Italian market that has 211hp.I hope I got it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the USA the 850-R is NO different engine wise than the 850 T-5R, except it was OBD-II compliant being a 96 and later. Someone might have said spark plugs were different, but I don't think so and even if they were - whatever. They had 236HP and higher boost than the 850 Turbo/T5, only because of ECU programming.In Europe, yes, the MANUAL 850-Rs had 246 instead of 236. The Auto's had the same HP and everything. Manuals also had an LSD.The 850 Turbo/T5 is only 222HP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
