The hunt for the missing Vees

[Willliams]

Wish I was in the fortunate position to have ordered a new Vee when they came out, the lunar looks immense there at that motor show,

Bronze looks very classy with the full leather interior, wonder where the motorshow cars are now?!

There were two identical Lunar cars for motor shows Colin. So far, its been impossible to find out which car the one above is. However, safe to say its either Keir's car or Keith's.

 

[ColinG]

Never seen Keith's? Or is that the one with mudflaps?? (wtf)!!

Still looks best with silver pods.. Your car with recaros would be perfect for me!

I'll 2nd that Colin.

Back on subject, I can't believe the owners of 3 of the rarest Vees in the UK aren't part of the club. I mean look at the other owner, he runs his own website about the damn things

PMSL...

Anyway.. mine does have Recaro's.. it did when you saw it.. lol It has Trendlines fitted. Not the best Recaro's available, but the closest to being OEM

I used to yearn for that Moonlight Blue v6, but since I saw one at Mas du Clos the other year.. I think I'll stick with what I have. Dont get me wrong, its a lovely colour, but it does look a little lack-lustre and opaque in the metal. I dont think the owner of the one I saw was a great detailer, so would be interesting to see one that has been detailed correctly.

 

[ColinG]

Sometimes I secretly want trend lines..just for the OEM factor, and the ease of just getting in and out..

Pole positions are mega comfy...but something about the OEM-ness bugs me slightly lol
I should buy some trend lines and out the pole positions in the twingo.hmmmm now theres a thought,

Mind you I do love the low low driving position...

that nocturn by night ( if it is the phase 1 colour ) looks awsome... only because i like purple .

seen one of the rare coloured vee's in cyrus last year on my holiday, i have photo's somewhere, will dig the out.

( blacky blue metalic colour btw )

 

[polarbert]

For the record Inferno is a shockingly bad colour on any car. Reminds me a little of the new Bmw Valencia Orange but worse.

For the record, no it isn't a shockingly bad colour.

[R-Sport.]

I see Dulan enquired on renaultsport forum today about those Twingo Recaro seats..- At least they wont be going in a lY vee now :butt:
S

 

[ColinG]

If the stitching was red I would own them by now...orange wouldn't go in my Vee, may as well retrim my own

 

[w33 brl]

I would love a V6 in liquid yellow there stunning.....would also love a copy of this calender when its done

 

[tonyd106]

Seen this last year at a classic car show.

 

[adam248]

Poor car...

 

[tonyd106]

[ColinG]

[Willliams]

Someone mentioned they liked Nocturn..


and another pic of Inferno

 

[Willliams]

Petrol Blue anyone..?




Its actually a well known photoshop.. Still looks fantastic though

 

[Craig.]

Technical Grey:

It looks like iceberg silver

 

[EdV6220]

I'm told the difference is quite noticeable in the flesh!

 

[Willliams]

It's very different in reality. Nothing like Iceburg.

 

[Hodgins]

Seen this last year at a classic car show.

the guy lives by me, got talking one day about my LY, he said all you need to finish it off is the lights and number plate surrounds, i kindly said its not what im into lol

 

[Šįk]

I'm surprised there wasn't even one in petrol blue.. I think the V6 would pull it off brilliantly!

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Those rear lights are horrendous!!!!!! Look so cheap and nasty but each their own.......:S A lovely car ruined IMO.

Is this the one that was in a smash, then rebuilt and re-sprayed a rare id colour at the same time? There was a write up about it somewhere.

Correct, thousands spent lovingly rebuilding her.

 

[dezmondo]

I see a Petrol Blue option. any pics or any sold in UK? love that colour

According to this, there wasn't, http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/roadcars/heritage/cliov6/

Shame as I think it would look pretty good on a V6.

that is a shame, the gold would have popped through awesomely with all the curves and edges on a v6. Loving the bronze one too, only one in the UK!!

 

[Feirny]

Enlighten us further

 

[EdV6220]

Haha ok, well here's Iceburg:

And here's Technical Grey:

Hope that helps

 

[Feirny]

Yes!

Though you need better pics.

There's a few of the Moonlight blue here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rodstreet/sets/72157606448717370/

That was when Sally at Renault had the car. She's not at Renault anymore. The paint finish was really bad.

[EdV6220]

It's quite a hard colour to photos but is immense as so much happens to it in different light conditions:

A few more I took of the moonlight blue.

Has anyone found where it is now, as I might be able to, or at least where it went after Renault moved it on.
