I took a quick look, but I'm no longer registered on there so I couldn't find it. Can you hook me up with the link please ?

Also, what's with the Black & Nocturne Mk1's on there? were those cars originally Silver?

can you see this page? http://v6clio.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=99&t=18834 if not ill see if i can post some pics on here.

Both the black and Nocture Phase 1's were originally silver. A few owners elected to change colour recently.

There were black and nocturne cars made ( I believe one Nocturne and 2 Black), but not sold to the public.

 

[Megzy]

Anyone got any pics of mine? Nimbus 197

We should get a bit more organised and convoy it!

No I can't see it, I just get the login screen

I guess the two real Black cars were prototypes or something? Who has them now ? What about the nocture one ?

I've seen the Pale Yellow one too, also someone local to me apparently has an Orange one, a few people have told me about it & claim it's real. I'm nit sure though (it too was probably Silver, or it might be a rep)

1 of the black ones was the original t reg prototype (which is now in the renault flins collection), the other was a crash test car. There was 1 sunflower yellow crash test car too. I do not know where the nocturne is, likely in the Renault collection again.

There is a silver that has been sprayed in trophy saffron yellow (lovely car it is too!!) and there has been a few other sprayed ones, green, orange, white.. etc) but they were all originally silver.

The only non production phase one that has made it into public hands is TOM0001 - Tom Walkinshaws illiad blue ph1 with its bespoke interior. Which is apparantly now in Hong Kong.

heres the pics of the blue one from the ace:

Should do really. Cant wait to get the v6 finished and down there.

Regarding the Nocturne v6 im not sure even if it exsists now. Im pretty sure it would have been tucked up in reno's vast collection but i have found no other pics apart from the motor show pics. It was a bit of a gamble when i decided to have mine Nocturne. I really wasnt sure what the colour looked like in the flesh on a curvy v6. Luckily for me it was exactly what i wanted although i hate trying to keep it clean.

 

[Clio172T]

I was there in the missus new megane dci!!

 

[peanuthead]

Was a good meet, bit gutted I turned up too late to get a space in the carpark. I'll have to get there a bit earlier next time

Thanks for the info. I might come along to the next one

I don't suppose you know the previous reg of the Blue car ? I'm wondering if I know of it, I know about five of the eight cars (inc mine)

 

[ddouble]

You prob do know it. It used to be SY02 PJO & was also on D8 CRE for many years. #086.

I too know 5 of the 8!
I have reg plates of three more (4 including TOM0001), but dont have the plaque numbers to cross reference, so they may be duplicates.

I don't know of that car.

There's mine, SE 02 *** (currently V6 NOW)
The C11 ODW one which was on here.
The written off one on ebay, that one had a private plate on it.
V6 NSW, the modified one with trophy wheels.
One other one with about three miles on it that doesn't go out.

Then the TWR one.
