Welcome.

This man may be of some help. @Jaff.

Welcome Oliver, @Jaff. maybe able to help with some of your questions.

 

[Jaff.]

Were you on cc?
The only maxi I remember was Bruce's.

What are your questions?

 

[ollymk1megane]

I used to be on the coupe club until it got broken up. I have tried to contact Bruce on FB but he doesn't reply.

Ive got the kit on order with Prima racing and am just waiting til end of November time for it to arrive.

 

[Jaff.]

Try the renault online Facebook group to speak to Bruce

 

[ollymk1megane]

By the way im from Brecon so not far away from you.

 

[Jaff.]

No, less than an hour away. Got loads of parts too if your ever stuck

 

[ollymk1megane]

sweet. What ever happened to the coupe club and Renault online?? Why don't they just set up a new site? Surely the megane coupe has a strong following and would be even stronger if a dedicated owners club and site were set up!!

 

[Jaff.]

Cc was merged with rsoc to create renault online.
Renault online died.
Too much politics about to even think about bringing any of them back

mines being made as we speak but for a clio. what are you planning on doing with the meg?

 

[ollymk1megane]

Might look at a new forum. Ive run a welsh clio forum before.

Plans are full kit, widened front track, widened rear,cage ,buckets ,flocked interior, 18" wheels. Looking at either team dynamics or oz at the mo but they have to have a flat face at the arch. I dislike deep dish on maxi cars.
Cams, exhaust, throttle bodies..

You??
I like the clio maxi.
Have you had good communication from prima??
Ive been told 2-3 months but defo before xmas

 

[Jaff.]

Who's doing your flocking?

 

[ollymk1megane]

Not sure yet. Just planning stage lol

 

[tom172cup]

took a while to get back to me but its all sorted now i got told before xmas to. mines only having the front end fitted because ive got 10" wide front wheels

 

[ollymk1megane]

Your having maxi front wings snd standard rear??

 

[tom172cup]

yeah need to hide the wheels as they poke out massively. its a drag car.

 

[ollymk1megane]

nice. Just hope the kit does come before xmas

 

[..Jack..]

By the way im from Brecon so not far away from you.

There are meets in the Midlands as well as South Wales, me and @Don cover the West Midlands, it'd be nice to see you at a meet.

 

[Don]

I was also in Coupe Club. Had a mk1 ph2 1.6 16v Coupe in Gris Boreal. Only had it a year until I got rid as the urge for another Renaultsport was overwhelming.

 

[tom172cup]

nice. Just hope the kit does come before xmas

I was told before Xmas so hope so

May make your conversion cheaper.

He is, but to chop it up would be sacrilege

 

[ollymk1megane]

yeah was tempted by bruces but I want to build my own. I wouldn't have chopped it up but would have changed a few things. was a nice car that. Ill try to get to some meets soon but not got a Renault daily anymore lol. still waiting the kit

 

[tom172cup]

I'm still wIting to so don't panic.
