Hi C3 maniaks !

My : is there a roll-cage ( official race approved !) for the C3 witch can be installed and still makes the car street useble ? other words , without to have nesting ourselfs into the car or training with a young monkey ?  ( door openings remains +/-free ?)

Whe have a circuit nearby ( the Nurburgring ) , 13.7 miles !!! long ,really inviting tho go racing ( a few bucks a tour ) but for some reasons i don't thrust the polyester body. Have experience with a BMW.....

Anyone knows about or have it in his car ???

Thanx for reactions.

 never heard of one for a c-3. Probably have to be custom made. They are putting hinge's on the bar for door opening/ entry.

thanx huk_finn, but a custom made hasn't that serial number . I inform because we would like to do some historic rallying and i guess these are demanded as soon there are timed laps involved.

see you !

 I don't know of any "original" roll cages

However custom shops such as :http://autoweldchassis.com/rbc.ivnu offer approved units to fit a C-3

I will look some more

hope it helps
