Has anyone got a roll cage in their coupe?

I think i would be a lot happier with one..... Just incase!

Is there room for one? Can you fit one in there thats built for another car?

I have an FIA roll cage in my car which is a track car.

I know it cost about £1400, I have the invoice which came with the car when I bought it.

Regards

David

£1400? :shock:

I think i'l go with plan "A", a pillow strapped to the top of my head with an elastic band.

......or roof wheels :D

1400 is for a full FIA roll cage.

A road safety device must be cheaper.

A very nice looking job.

Wonder if my old man will have the patience to fabricate something like that. Or I could get a few miles of tube and try it myself. Which reminds me, I must learn to weld. :wink:

How many owners would like a roll cage ? if we a club together, and get some made to bolt in ,could be cheaper than doing one by one . thanks

I'd quite like a front hoop that could be bolted in and would brace to the standard rear roll bar via some bolt in/clamp on roof bars - can't see that being more than a couple of hundred at the most.

Maybe not. A couple of years ago i had a chat with Performance Protection at Race Retro and told them i did'nt want spend that much on a cage for a Coupe. The guy did offer to supply all or some of the parts preformed for me to weld in. Could be worth a phone call.

In the current economic climate I have no doubt that there are all sorts of deals to be done.
I have actually just dug out the invoice and my memory is not so good - the roll cage was fitted in June 2008 and it is described as "6 point internal cage for GTM Coupe - PP700 - bare steel" cost £1,008.15 including VAT.

Is anybody interested still in a joint purchasing of roll cages?

I have most of a cage for the coupe. No idea where it was made. missing a bar which goes across the back and one door bar.
