Nice picture. Do we all have red Murenas around here?

yup! 

Congrats with the passing of the mot Anders ....
The tax on mine is also set to around 22000 dkr...a little more then yours, but then again.. i also had "tuned engine" noted as special equipment.... so it is registred as having 150 hp and not 116..... it will make a difference if i ever get around to do that turbo conversion im thinking of 

As for a meeting of red murenas, Im pretty sure i will be travelling to Sjælland the 10-12 november... so perhaps we can arrange a quick drive by :-)

Hej Henrik.
Jeg ser at du ikke har modtaget noget fra Matra Klubben. Hvis det var dig jeg talte med, der netop havde købt en Rød Murena, bla. fordi jeg havde købt den Hvide Murena "S", for næsen af dig; så har jeg sendt materiale til dig, og beklager da hvis det ikke er nået til dig. Giv mig din adresse(måske har jeg ikke fået ordentlig fat i den), så sender jeg straks nyt materiale.

I have made a note in my calendar already!

Sounds like a good idea, if anyone is passing through Tunbridge Wells in Kent, I will come out and say hi!

does that count for non-red Matra's too - or is this a secret gathering of the code-red fraction of the Matra community ?  :-)

att: Lars..

jeg har heller ikke modtaget noget fra klubben endnu!!... og jeg har ellers sendt dig min adresse :-)

[Lennart Sorth]

att: Lars..

both of you were mailed the paperwork same day as you contacted Lars, so
possibly the postoffice just had a bunfire or something.  :-)
New papers are in the mail.

OK, we will see what the postman brings next week.

"code red" fraction - sounds as a good oppertunity, but as I seriously consider getting my car repainted (not red) - I automatic shut myself out :-)

I consider having my car painted too
White,some kinda of metallic... or even Titane like Lennards would be very nice (even though we all know that "red ones go faster")
However its not as straight forward as it sounds as it appearantly arn't all painters who want to undertake painting a fiberglass car..

[Anders Dinsen]

I had to tell my wife I'm going through a mid-life-crisis - otherwise she would not approve the Murena. And since she can understand that a frustrated 40-year old (I'm not yet, but still) needs a RED SPORTSCAR, I just have to leave mine in the original colour

White metallic could be good looking. I also have that in mind.
Maybe we can get a common offer - paint must be much cheaper when mass fabricated :-)

Anders: For me it was much more complicated - I divorced with my wife - and *then* bought a Murena.

(BTW, a good exchange)

The original Titane metallic is *very* nice.

My car was originally Titane, but after a minor frontal damage (previous owner) it was resprayed grey-metallic, which looks nothing LIKE the original. When I parked my car next to a "real" Titane metallic, my car looked incredibly dirty and dull:

My car is second "silver" from left. The one at the far left is Roy Gillard's Titane silver car,which has always made me envious - it's gorgeous:)



I put that right i 1999, so it is now again Titane - almost white metallic, with large metallic grains.

NB - with so much light and intensity in the paint, you really need the sills to be black - to lower the appearance of the car. WEll, thats at least my opinion.

On the darker colours, it works fine with coloured sills, - and even the wide sills are fine.

(even though we all know that "red ones go faster")

Redheads are generally hysteric, as we all know. :-}

and last time I was on a track with my car against a red Murena, my Titane bullet appeared somewhat  quicker.

No Anders, we don't want all you very good excuses :-)
