AST Removable Roll Cage BMW E36 Compact V2

The AST Removable Roll Cage BMW E36 Compact V2 is a full roll cage for the BMW E36 with 3-door Compact bodywork. This Removable Compact V2 has extra reinforcement bars compared with the V1 and is just as removable: the structure is split into sections that are joined together with connecting sleeves, so the cage can be fitted in the car and taken out again.

The cage is designed and built by AST Roll Cages in Spain, for drivers looking for a sturdier set-up without leaving the cage permanently in the car.

Fitting and delivery

The cage is built to order; the standard delivery time is 15 to 35 working days. AST digitises the bodyshell with laser scanners and designs the cage in 3D, so that it fits your car exactly. Allow a little more fitting time than for the V1, as the extra reinforcement bars need to be put in place.

The same removable concept as the V1, but with extra reinforcement bars added.

Why choose this Removable Compact V2 roll cage?

This version sits between the base version and the most comprehensive variant. You get the extra tubing of the reinforcement bars, while the connecting sleeves still allow the cage to come out of the car in sections. For a Compact that is driven hard but also used on public roads, that is an appealing combination.
