Its been a year since I sold the Trophy but there was still that moments hesitation when I walked up and I nearly went round to the drivers side of the Clio :lol: Car was looking good - nice shine

T in the car park at Curzon Ashton football club Saturday afternoon. Private plate - looked nice. Parked two places up from my R26.

Only been 10 months since I sold it - still looking good

And its on Pistonheads too http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1633618.htm

By chance found this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2005-RENAULT-CLIO-RENAULTSPT-TROPHY182-RED_W0QQitemZ150432781005QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxq20100413?IMSfp=TL100413202002r16742 Its my old car I got rid of last June! Wondered where she went - from Manchester to Wrexham. She's still looking good...

Let a Trophy out turning right toward Droylsden while I was heading toward Ashton on the way home this evening Made me nostalgic.

Wicked Wheels reckoned they could not match the Ixell paint code and the only way to guarantee a match was to repaint all 4 wheels in a different shade of grey. Chips Away matched the colour - I had the Megane done in August and so far no signs of peeling or flaking :D

I live just outside Manchester and when I needed a wheel touch up when I had my Trophy (and then again on the Megane) Chips Away came out to the house and successfully matched the Ixell paint code. £55 a wheel I think it was...

...or it could be that the part where the wire fits has broken off completely and the seat needs a whole new sub frame to fix it like mine did. Renault quoted me £360. And I had it checked by my regular local mechanic who confirmed the fault.

If all you're looking for is a match for the Anthracite grey to get a wheel refurb then Chips Away can match the Ixell paint code - I had it done and it was spot on.

Chips Away matched the colour perfectly for me - and the price was good too

I can confirm that Chips Away can match it ( or at least the guy with the franchise in the North West) - did a really good job and the price was really good too!

It's back again today, but this time parked in the employees section just up the row from mine. Guess it belongs to a new starter who doesn't use this web site....

Trophy in visitors parking bay in our works car park today (in Sale, Manchester - not for sale) Reg no starts MM05 and as per title has a baby seat in the back. I don't see another Trophy for weeks and then there's another in the works carpark......

Trophy in Stalybridge yesterday. On the A635 going through the junction by the BP garage about 2:30 Saturday heading in the direction of Glossop/Woodhead. Reg looked something like P1 *** I was at the junction on the road on the left hand side.
