ABOUT ME

Hi to all. I'm Franch88, the author of this nice Dacia Logan conversion for Midtown Madness 2. I'm in the great world community of this great game from June 2007, to give help in the www.mm2x.com forum; actually I'm the moderator of that forum. You can found me also in the forum of the great HQTM-Team.
After a lot of training in car making for MM2, I've release my first realization for this game, and I wish to you a good driving with my conversion and have fun. ;)


CAR BRAND HISTORY (by ShinyG)

Dacia is a Romanian car manufacturer. It was founded in the '60s and produced cars under Renault licence. 
First it was the Dacia 1100, which was the Renault 8 Gordini body with a small 1100 cc engine. Then followed the Dacia 1300 which was a Renault 12. This is the car that literally put Romania on wheels. The car is still produced today with very few modifications (indirect injection, slightly modified body styling). In the early '90s the Romanian manufacturer separated from Renault and decided to continue on it's own. Thus the Nova was born. This car is suposed to be made on Peugeot 409 plans as Dacia was to be bought by Peugeot after the Renault separation. Peugeot didn't buy Dacia because it only wanted it's facilities to make Peugeot engines. (These are only rumours, but the fact is that techincaly and esteticaly Nova really lookes like the 409). Then Renault decided to buy back Dacia as it needed it to make the famous 5000 euro car that they wanted to build. After buying Dacia, it released the SuperNova, which had a 1400cc 8 valve engine from the Clio. Later they made an upgrade to this car calling it Solenza. This has the same engine but a newer gearbox, taken from the Megane II models.
In 2004 Renault and Dacia unveiled the Logan, the famous 5000 euro car. The 5000 euro bet is only partialy won, beacause this car will cost 5000 in the extremly-low-range model which will be sold only in Romania. The 3D model created by ShinyG is the top-range Logan Laureate 1.6 MPI.
