wanted - must be in top condition please. Name your price - perferably within easy reach of Surrey/Kent area.

Hi mate - I am interested in the seats for a Clio V6 - I was hoping for some standard trophy recaros to replace the rubbish standard affair. However if you can get me some pics of the seats I might have a pop at fitting them. Mines a late 255 V6 so they should be the same fittings as any late...

Hi David - I can't believe you have put my old car up for sale the week after I have just bought one....missed my old trophy so much I went and bought one off here. Stick with it - thats a good car you have there.....its just a waiting game. I have seen lots come up for sale and they all go...

Jeez that's a tough one...put it this way if you lined them all up and said "pick 3".....I would probably say, Clio V6 255, Megane R26R and Clio trophy. The V6 is a far better ride than the earlier 5 Turbo 2. But its a bit like saying Stirling Moss is better than Schumi.... they are from...

Dealer...well, in a way - but I work for BMW. I have been a seriel Renault buyer since 1989.....I just get bored easy....ask Art Dealer - he has sold me 2 cars in 6 months. These are my Sunday toys...perhaps this one is for keeps as good trophy's are getting hard to find. For the record - 3...

:) ...he will. After selling no.250 2 years ago..he's back for more. It took 3 197s and a 200 to make me realise that the Trophy is the daddy........... =D>

Thanks Guys - TBH the Cup is a great car if you only need/have 1 car. For me the Trophy was hardcore, respected by those that know, and was more connected to the tarmac on trackdays. The cup I guess is too civilised - perhaps I should have waited for the R26R. As I have a company car I can...

Guys - After leaving you all for a while (197 Cup via ph2 V6 - well at least they were all Clios) ....I am back looking for an original trophy. My own fault I know.....wait til Steve finds out. I can only go as far as £7K. Must be as close to standard as poss with the right tyres and preferably...

The guys about to lose his job, its a 3 owner car and due the 36k service and aux belt. Cut him some slack guys please.

It is def Cat D repaired with full insurance pay out. Pretty sure that means that insurers wont pay out again if it gets stolen or written off. I considered this car at £6750 but the guys are right that you wont pay much more for a good one. Dont take the risk - the set up on this car is...

Ahhhh, I forgot to tell you. I went for this,,,,,,, ...And then I had this.......... .....But now I want another one of these......... ....Preferably before I have another one of these........

Looking for another Trophy - been away a while - lookin to get back into one ASAP/ Needs to be very clean and sensible mileage. Max £7500 - casg is burning a hole so be quick to reply. Based in Surrey, call Tony on 07795 520269.

I think it is probably as quick as my old Trophy over 60, but it has no pull below 4000, and it does'nt get that second kick at 5500 anymore either. But the low gearing hides alot of the problem and it does seem to hang on even more in the bends, its just a bit more grown up and less...

Hi Matt - Yeh thought it was choice that you let me out of that juction - probably the only time I will ever be in front of you - OMG its so slow at the moment - tighter than a 16 year olds chuffer. Still only got 500 miles on it. Funky M - the plate is 2 fold my good man. On the one hand...

..well seeing as I have put on a few Kilo's seemed like a good time to go for the Clio comfort mode. Spoke to the dealer about the lack of power and he said the engine will be arriving in 12000 miles, :roll: whatever that means.......
