    Renaultsport Clio 182 Trophy - Number 196/500

    The steering wheel was done by Snappy (Andrew Mayer on Facebook) - quite well known in the Renault scene. Autostyle did the mats.

    Yaris Gr

    I'm also in the camp of loving the idea of it. Yet to test drive, but it would have to be very special to meet expectations. It's the first new car in a while that's managed to turn my head and prompted me to check prices.

    Rattling Single Din Cage

    Will send a photo tomorrow, cheers. I bent the tabs on the bottom and side, but the housing lip seems too thick to bend the top ones. I'm probably being daft! Appreciate the help ?

    Rattling Single Din Cage

    Morning all! I've installed my new stereo and stalk controls - it works perfectly but the cage doesn't fit snugly so it rattles around, adding another element to the Renault Symphony. Has anyone who's installed an aftermarket stereo had this issue and if so, how was it corrected? I was going...

    Wipers

    Thanks for the tips Frayz! A squeaking linkage sounds as bad if not worse than the annoying click of the blade catching at the moment ha!

    Wipers

    I've not had the linkage out during my ownership, but perhaps that could be the culprit. Wasn't sure if there was something I'd done wrong in setting them, but I'll break the tools out tomorrow and have a look.

    Wipers

    I've just changed the wiper blades from standard to Bosch Aero Twin units. My old ones were both 21" which I believe is correct to Renault specs, but the passenger side used to catch the A pillar, particularly when on high. The wipers are positioned as low down towards the scuttle as I can get...

    Exhausts

    Seeing the underside of this car makes me all giddy and provokes an urge to rip mine apart and rebuild ?

    Facebook Trophy page - what happens to folk !

    I was involved in that exchange early on unfortunately (I'm Iain). When the OP asked for evidence of recent selling prices, I provided links showing him two plates that had sold within the last few months for less than a third of his asking price. He then proceeded to personally insult me, at...

    309/500 For Sale

    True! There seemed to be a surge over summer but I initially thought that was just down to people having holiday money burning a hole in their pocket. That and a "sod it, you only live once" approach. Maybe a bit of everything at play, very interesting though. I know having the Trophy to mess...

    Needs a little more info. Belt service dates and mileage, Sachs condition, service history would help put a value on it.
