No it's not height adjustable, the back tilts and it moves forward and back plus the font of the seat pulls out to give more support if you have long legs, but that's it.

What's the condition of them/mileage

Mines not leaking oil but had lost gas pressure you can tell this my pushing down on each wing occurs firm then gas pressure is okay if it bounces then it's due a refurb the difference from firm to bouncy is obvious. As a rough guide ppl say they should be refurbed around 50k if no ovious signs...

Ideal can't complain with that can't wait to get mine sorted lol :D Wot paint u gonna use ?

Glad to hear mine will be goin off soon, obviously u had adjuster upgrade, did u have new springs fitted ? How much did it cost and how long did it take to turn around ? Cheers

Had a reply from Ktec. : HI there, you are correct in that the Trohpy rear dampers are different. Renault have been known to supply the182/cup rear dampers to Trophy customers, mainly to those who wish to save money as the Trophy ones cost twice as much as the Cup versions. As long as you...

Ideal keep me posted how u get on

How u manage that Ive just been down to the stealers, asked for price for rear dampers, just gave them reg number and they gave me the price of the cup ones which were 68 each. When I gave him the correct part number they were 136.65 each. I asked him for a price for the fronts which is when he...

From everything I've found out so far, the conclusion I've come to is that the trophy rear dampers ARE indeed different to that of the 182 sport and the 182 cup as they are black, don't have the sachs label on, are less than half the price and they have different part numbers to the trophy ones...

I've just noticed Ktec are selling OEM rear dampers for 172/172cup/182 and a separate item listed for the 182 cup there both black if the pics are correct and they only cost £57.60 including vat so I'm guessing none of them are correct for the trophy. I've mailed them to find out.

Seems logical if it's common for the rears to fail, any ideas the average life of the rears ?

Forgive me if I'm being stupid, but wots the difference between the cup packed 182 dampers and the 182 cup dampers ?

Now I'm confused, so is the part no. In the first post on this thread wrong and ur saying there the same as the cups not the 182 however earlier in the thread someone said Reno fitted them cup ones which were wrong and had them changed to 182 dampers. I don't know wot to believe lol

Yeah certainly looks that way reading the other posts bud thanks for that clears it up lol

Wots the deal with the trophy rear dampers, some ppl say there the same as either the 182 or the cup rears (can't remember which) but with a different sticker on, and some ppl say there different altogether on the t ! Any ideas ?
