Hello mate I think you did from looking through the folder, in total I think the car has close to 15k in receipts, I've spent around £3k on the vehicle after recently having a full correction and 5 year ceramic coat put on her, in my ownership the money has been mainly spent in bringing her...

I think I might have spoke to you before about the Williams Si? did I pass you some details on the DTM Cars Trophy? My Williams 3 is on 61k and almost time warp not a mark on the vehicle and my Williams 2 is on 91k, this has been mechanically sorted but requires a top respray, mainly due to a...

Haha I've got my P1 in bits in the garage after I bought a refurbed inlet manifold for it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks mate. It's a tough decision but too many toys and not enough time to enjoy them with new baby and things we want to do with the house that need funding. I would certainly be very sad to see the car go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cheers for the replies. Car has the standard CAT fitted mainly for noise but decat would go with the car. I need to check but I think the car has 7 previous keepers although each owner has spent a considerable amount on keeping the car exactly how it should be. The cars certainly not heavily...

That's mainly been maintance and services. That's not including the money I've spent on the car recently that was just when I bought it. One of the previous owners - Brisbane spent over 7k on the car during his ownership

Hi guys I'm considering selling my Clio Trophy mainly because I just don't have time to use it as I have 7 cars, work away from home and my partner recently gave birth. I bought the car for good money back at the start of the year and it's been owned by a few club members always being...

Thanks mate, he just said a diagnostic said crank sensor so not sure. Will ask him to try this as I've already spent close to 2k since getting the car and have barely done any miles!

Hi guys My cars currently in the bodyshop being painted, its been there for around 6 weeks so far but the guys contacted me to say it won't start anymore. He's had this checked out for me as I'm away and its come up saying crank sensor fault, is a new sensor required or is this something more...

I did get this working again for about 2 days using WD40 sprayed through the bolts, certainly appears to be sticking! Will replace when I have time. Will look on ebay for the parts!

Thanks for the reply, I've had a play around and it is now working again!

Just re-read this, think I will leave them black then mate. Never realised they are hard to get anymore, I know what I'm like with modifications I like them but always revert back to thinking original looked better over time. I had a slight crack in my front splitter got a shock when I found...

I'm torn on painting the washer jets, they look better painted but aren't original haha. I can imagine the black headlights looking better but again not original? is the £180 for genuine set?

Any pictures Mikey? I was thinking if it was £120/130 I might just replace them for what its worth but £180 not sure what to do when they will look like new for £100 Decisions? are the lights specific to the trophy model as the 182's have xenons don't they?

Another was to remove the bolts holding the lock in and spray WD40 in on to the solenoid actuator!

I had a look myself, one thread said disconnecting the battery reset the issue and it started working again, obviously if the actuator has failed this won't work although worth a try!

Hi all, Head lights on my trophy are a mess, just before I bought it they were improved but are still really poor and misty. I've been quoted £50 each head light to bring back up and then seal with a chemical that makes them really clear, I've seen the guys restoration work so I can appreciate...

Had another look tonight, definitely can't hear the actuator inside the door so think its possibly seized. I've not looked inside the door yet, has anyone else had this? Dean

I tried that mate. Just appears the actuator has packed in maybe. I'm sure its going to be a common issue. Will add it to the list of jobs haha

I've just collected my car from having the wheels refurbed and the passenger door has stopped working from the remote central locking, any one have any ideas? I'm assuming something has maybe fell off from inside the car door? Dean

I've had my 250 since 2011, I never drive it anymore but can't bring myself to part with! Cars done 27k miles, is full spec and perfect condition other than some spoke corrosion on one wheel. I had the original RS tuning package that they offered (Milltek, ITG, Forge FMIC and Map) think it made...

Ok mate. I will get some spare grille clips even though pricey for what they are! Just a thought but has anyone tried the heat gun method on faded plastics?

Nice job there mate. Was it easy to remove or is it a full bumper off job?

My trophy front grille is really faded, I'm having the front bumper painted and was thinking it might be worth replacing. Has anyone else done this? or would I be better of using a good product to bring it back up? Thanks Dean

Thank for the replies. Cars booked in on Wednesday for wheel refurb and painting to tidy. I took a centre cap back and the match is almost the same as one of the colours so just going to get that done for now, plus the place is next door to the best paint shop around my way. I didn't realise...

Hi fellow members, I've just purchased No.480 after years of on and off looking. It's a decent motor but needs improving quickly so I can be happy with it, if people could advise me on the following after being off the clio scene for about 6 years... Gear knob inserts - best place to get one...

On my old 182 I had 10 years ago I used to just press the button up for cruise. Possibly the 3 position switch is faulty as it pushes down into speed limited. Not massively fussed but hip is aching after a 4hr drive earlier! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I wasn't clear the speed limited does work but when the cruise button is pressed it doesn't go into that mode as such, I was just wondering if for some daft reason it was a Renault quirk where the button was as per other models but the trophy didn't have it. Any...

I bought 480 from Ryan today, I'm a big RS fan owning a Clio Williams and an R26 from nearly new. The Trophy is a good car with great history. I will no doubt be asking a few questions over the next few days on the forum about things I want to do to improve. I was really torn between this and...

Looks a nice car but at £9400 with the plate its a little rich for me, the garage has picked it up for 7k and are looking to make 2k+ on it quickly which is fair enough but they should at least get the belts done that appear overdue!
