    Golf clubs in a Trophy

    Get mine in all the time - not exactly easy though! Driver and Woods come out, bag goes in diagonally and the driver/ woods go in on top, by wedging hte handle end into the 'speaker' housing, then putting the club head in the small space behind the suspension and laying it on top of the bag -...

    Camber settings and tracking geometry

    I had my tracking checked when my front tyres were replaced two weeks ago - the toe and camber were all over the place and not the same on both sides front or back. I admit, these guys are not specialists :oops: but they did have all of the laser alignment gear and showed me the read out on...

    Flat Wiper Blades

    Doesnt look like they will fit a Trophy - you can't retro fit them apparrently Look like they would do the job better than a standard wiper though

    Trophy with the most miles on

    21,500 for me! sounds alot, but I honestly don't care - they have all been great :D As with yours Oliie, they are mostly motorway miles (which seems a bit of a waste) and still going strong! The cruise control is very convenient and easy to use, but on a couple of occasions i have...

    Tyres - PE2's vs Parada Spec 2's

    funny - i'm having a similar dilemma at the moment..... I reckon that the only real difference will be how long they last, with the Yokos going down faster. It seems silly to change from the tyres that michelin developed for the 182 (but not trophy), but having only ever used Exaltos I cant...

    A41 Kings Langley 17:10 20 July

    That was me again - didn't see you this time! Boxters are always fair game, they dont realise that their cars are not that much faster (until about 80mph) :)

    new camera

    That goes for both of us then! I obviously didn't look hard enough :oops: still, always nice to see a Trophy parked next to a yellow CTR :P

    new camera

    car looks spanking - obviously a good camera! Can't help but notice that you dont clean inside the wheelarches (if only there was a wagging finger icon to put in here) :)

    A411 - going into Watford

    That was me sneaking away from work early! I reckon it was a double 'rabbit in headlights' when we drove past eachother :) I work in Aylesbury and live near Watford - You're only the second trophy I've seen - first might have been duffer because it was in Watford on the day I picked mine up

    10,000 Club

    Almost upto 13K now and not even a trip abroad to show for it!! It pains me to see it, but at least I'm getting some good fun out of the little beast!

    just had my first visit to the dealer

    I know pretty much all of the Trophy's have the seat rattling problem, but I resigned myself to living with it as it didn't seem like Renault could do anything about it - Did the replacement clamp stop the seat from rattling?

    Just got the Trophy Zymoled - dodgy paint !!!!

    Haven't noticed it on mine Tim - but at the moment I can't see the paint for the dirt anyway!

    Lotus Elise > Clio Trophy

    There is no question that you will be amused by a Trophy, they are hilarious to drive :) I had a Clio 182 with a cup pack before I bought a Trophy, and I found that they are very different. The suspension is harder, but really changes the handling for the better (not taken the Trophy on...

    My Petrol Light Has Come On!!!

    Have used 99 RON from Tesco for the last two tanks - before that it was only Optimax. I can't say that I have noticed a difference, if I did I would probably be making it up! As you said earlier it seems to make sense to use the cheaper, higher RON fuel (even if it may not be as pure?!) Done...

    fed up already

    We have to remeber that Renault put all of the development into the engineering underneath (having neglected the driving position) - I personally don't care that the rest of it is made out of paper mache and masking tape, because driving it is such a hoot!! :D If it is seriously annoying you...

    Trophy Headlight Upgrades..

    I really miss the Xenons, had a 182 before I got the Trophy. The beam is quite good, but xenons are much better. You would be able to buy the units from Renault, but they are likely to cost a fortune and probably add quite a few kilos as well. Maybe better to try out some aftermarket...
