Can you add me also please @TonkaTruck

Thanks for your input guys. Some things to think about there. It is more the running costs which I see go out every month to then not use the car. Plus the money I will inevitably spend on top of that doing bits and pieces. I have always maintained I would keep the Trophy and I am still in...

Bumping this as unfortunately I am still of the same mindset and would consider letting my Trophy go for the right price. In case anybody reading this may be interested, here's a basic overview: Mileage is approx. 115k, 2 previous owners, previous owner had serviced at K-Tec religiously, I...

I'd be up for a group buy if there's other interest?

Are you able to share any further info Marc?

So as the title suggests I have been thinking of selling my Trophy for some time now. For the last 5 years of ownership I have always maintained it was a keeper, but if I'm honest I don't feel like I get the same enjoyment from the car now. I took it out this weekend for the first time since...

I'm in!

Great find. I could of bought two sets for what my refurb cost!

Nice pics. What's the spec of your Trophy? I'll be at Donington in mine tomorrow evening, can't wait!

Which date mate? I was thinking of doing Donington in mine soon.

BG arranged collection when I had mine done earlier in the year. The cost was then added to the final bill (£20 + VAT from memory).

Oops, forgot to ever update this thread! Have a read through my thread on CS, I have posted details of a solution in there: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/refurbished-sachs-and-info-for-trophy-owners.784191/

Thanks for the info Neil. I had a feeling that may be the case. I'll be in touch when it's back on four wheels!

Hi Neil, I am looking to re-insure my Trophy next year and was wondering if you offer a policy where I can insure the car from say April through to September? I garage the car over winter so I'm trying to avoid paying insurance when its not in use. Thanks Tom

I'm thinking of replacing mine when I get round to giving the bodywork a refresh (hopefully next year). I noticed Ren Parts sell an alternative that they claim to be high quality and insurance approved...

Will do mate, no problem. Hoping to have them within the next 7-10 days.

BG can supply an alternative dust cover. I have a set on order.

Nice one - will pick up a copy tomorrow also! :up:

Mick at Diamond Motors works Saturday or at least he did when I was last there a few months ago. He would be my choice regardless, he has done work on various Clios I've owned and I've always been impressed. He has a good eye for detail and doesn't cut corners.

I sent mine off to BG on Thursday. Funnily enough, mine were last done in 2010 too. Got a call on Friday to say they'd been received and all was well (despite the box splitting during transit!). Service has been excellent so far - quite surprised by a couple of the posts above.

Yes definitely Mark Fish springs mate. As mentioned, Matt was the first to have them fitted.

Here's one Ash (not my car):

Hi Mikey, did you ever get the calipers refurbished? If so, do you have any photos you'd be able to share?

Cheers Marc :up:

Thanks for the info Marc. I have just bought a set of the Twingo dampers (you most probably saw them for sale on CS), based on what you've said then, I won't be able to purchase the dust covers at all? I thought people were having their original Sachs modified to allow them to fit the dust...

Sorry for the bump, just wondering if anybody knows where I could pick up the bump stops and dust covers for the Twingo R1 Sachs dampers?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00AILGDRA/?tag=ctphy-21 I have the above for sale at £80.

Forgot to mention the engine mounts... I went for OEM lower gearbox, upper gearbox and upper engine mounts with a Powerflex dogbone mount. I actually got the upper engine and gearbox mounts from GSF car parts, simply because I didn't feel genuine parts were worth the premium given they aren't...

Dsturbed, I've put together a list below of the part numbers for the items I ordered for my suspension refresh. 7701470760 - SMI Steering rack bushes - £20+VAT, 2 required 8200257957 - Wishbone (RHS) including new bushes and lower ball joint - £37+VAT, 1 required 8200257956 - Wishbone (LHS)...

Yeah most people do because Renault don't sell the bushes and lower ball joints separately. As above the cost is only £45ish each. I can post part numbers and prices later on if it would be helpful for people?
