For 1995 rules for "F2" (2 litre atmospheric, 2 wheel drive) rally cars were changed to allow much wilder machines using special parts that also had to be sold as a kit to customers. At last we got some interesting creations after all the boring years since Gr.B was cancelled! Renault took their Clio Williams Gr.A and created the Maxi Clio. It was used as the works car only in 1995.

hi mate....

the maxi was the next stage up from the group A car with a wider kit and bigger rims. they ran between 270/280bhp at 8400 revs. thay ran a six speed box either a hewland or sadev gearbox with a sequential shifter. 17/18 inch rims 300/330 mm brakes. lots of other stuff too.
they ran different specs depending on gravel or tarmac usage.

It was a kit-car (the first rallye kit-car on the World!). You were able to buy the whole vehicle in parts (as Clio R3 nowadays) from Renault Sport and you had to assemble the Maxi in your workshop. Naturally these parts were very expensive.
