that is sad sad news, i have had lots of joy from mytyres. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Red is the new black

Even the mighty Jeremy Townsend seems to be struggling with this one...... over a week and the only thing he can tell me is that he has not forgotten about me. Oh well, lawyers are involved now..... here we go.....

oh, believe me i have tried. The delearship has not got any renault sports to give and they are not authorised ..... Ren Uk does not give a sh!t and leaves that side of it in the delears hands. As long as you are given a car that works, they do not care. I am on the phone to ren uk every 3...

guys, need help, that is 11 weeks now and ren uk is worse than rubbish. anyone know where i stand legally for compen??

I am sooooooo pi$$ed off with the service from Renault now...... the saga beggars belief really. The car is now going into it's 7th week in the dealers at stirling. They cannot get the correct wiring loom for it. They have therefore taken photos of the old loom and the ones that renault has...

Is TR 07 PHY a new plate?.... does that not mean that you cannot put it on your car because it is older than a new 07???..... you would have to have an unregistered Trophy. Seems silly if it is........

:lol: years later I had a nice new 306 GTI-6, I had a sideways moment at Auchencillens (spelling?) roundabout that would have made Tiff impressed !.... luckily came out ok though. :P

My sentiments exactly..... apart from maybe getting a 106 GTI instead, they are still flying machines. I started with a humble 1.3 popular escort, affectionately named the "ned mobile" it was even fun to drive!!!........ Had a few really hairy moments in it, but learned loads.

Showing your age now Steve! Think it's time you took off your rose tinted spectacles. lol

Simple answer to this one, 3 grand is way too much for insurance. Just got to bide your time with something a little less expensive and build up that no claims. Just remember that the trophy running costs will be a good bit higher than the clio you are used to. Some may argue that, but if...

Hi Folks, As Catastrophy was saying, the saga continues....... So far, the car has had 2 new starter motors, new starting relay, new circuit board. Now on the 5th visit to the dealers in 3 months (normally a week at a time!!!!) It has had 2 new wiring looms fitted, the wrong one in...

it is so sad, i hope you get this resolved

your mate cannot drive. RS is more than a match on a B road.

Still with the garage, they requested the spare set of keys late on today. Seem to think it is a key problem. When I was dropping the spares off I jumped in and gave it a go, no starty, quel surprise! I will keep you posted

No need for that fellow, nitro to the rescue. Anyone who notices the changes in acceleration and handling due to taking the rear seats out must have spidey senses. Get real you lot!

Are those alloys off a Vauxhall Astra VXR?

Did you take the back seats out too?

why stop at the seats anyway? Why not take the whole dash out?

No, You should have just bought a bike rack.

I think that all the EVO readers out there need to check the back issues. The mini was a revelation for ages when it came out. It was not all about 0 - 60 times. It was hailed as setting the new benchmark for hot hatches, with added value of sophistication. It brought back a lot of what VW had...

Mr catasTrophy (the voice of reason) has spoken. Let that be the lesson for today children. :P

no one has touched on the mini's excellent residuals either :wink:

Darth Vader?

The mini has a lovely weighty feel to the steering that the trophy does not. By the way, not trying to be negative.

Yes Gents, It is a trusty Subaru. I am afraid that I do not own a subaru jacket, nor do I have a 555 plate. I do however have subaru pyjammas and 666 tatooed on my skull. Hey, and guess what.... she sounds just fine without taking out seats and ripping up carpet. :o

my car is a Japanese Escort.

Have you tried driving with the windows down? That takes even less time for the mod. And it is really good too.

Hi Guys, Please excuse the negative start to my posting escapades. I would like to point out that I am in no way, whatsoever, assosciated to that King Stromba fellow. However, sometimes I do read his posts and agree on his views. There are also times that I think he is being a bit silly...

wife has the trophy, I have a mans car. I know that the emphasis started on noise, but it went into detail on weight.... boring! If you find the standard box muted then I suggest you buy Max Power mag and buy a corsa....... put a really big pipe on her and enjoy yourself.
