I think Blitz do them for Renault and you can get universal ones.  We got a universal one for the Escort RS from eBay. They all do the same job.

Here's some cheapy ones on ebay but as I said, they all do the same job and we've never had any problems with ones like these.

the best turbo timer is yourself as you no how hard you have been driving the car and iam sure you have 2 min spare to sit in your car at the end of your journey and let it tick over for 2 min

and the good thing about them is that if you wanted to warm your car up beofore going to work etc, you can turn it on, set the timer for 10 mins and have a cup of tea! If anyone lets the handbrake off the engine turns off so no one can nick it.

I have one of these fitted in my car.  

As you say its handy to warm the car up but i didnt like the handbrake idea as the handbrakes arnt that good in a 5 and you could probably drive away without releasing it.

I have been thinking about maybe trying to connect it up to the footbrake instead.  Another bad thing is that it exposes all the ignition wiring to the back of the timer and could be easily tampered with.

Apart from that it is pretty handy to have.. I set the timer and jump out of the car and lock the garage because all my keys are on 1 keyring
