    Im thinking about getting a 182, why should i get a Trophy

    I've owned both. The Trophy is just a better ownership proposition. Drives better, looks nicer, and feels more special being a ltd edition. Does depend what you're going to be using the car for though. If it's an everyday road car, I'd go for another Trophy. If it's a serious track car I'd get a...

    Anyone changed their rear seats?

    If your changing the rear seats, go for 172 rear seats. The leather/alcantara is a 90% match for the recaro fabric. The 182 seats have a darker alcantara with lighter perforations, doesn't match at all.

    Trophy 498 £7199 ono

    Yeah, the cup/phone holder is attached to the vents, comes off very quickly leaving no marks. The discs were fitted by prev owner, mintex with extreme pads. Not quite as powerful as Ferodo's, but they don't squeal at all.

    my trophy chasing a mclaren mercedes slr!!

    Turning the esp off doesn't make a difference to turn in. The SLR's sound fantastic, there was one at Bedford on my 1st ever track day, ridiculous.

    Thinking of selling - what's it worth?

    Have a look on pheads etc. But I agree on the company car allowance, from what I know they have to offer the alternative.

    New owner, #498

    All the prospeeds I've ever seen, if you look dead on from behind, you can see a lot of the backboxes (unless the design has changed)

    New owner, #498

    Decided on those 2 as I've heard they're fairly subtle sound wise. Yozzasport etc are just too loud, I do alot of motorway miles and the resonance drives me mad with the louder exhausts. Not a fan of the back-boxes showing so much on the prospeeds, if I went custom it would be H&S for me.

    New owner, #498

    Hey guys, just thought I'd introduce myself. Picked up Trophy 498 last week, blown away by the car so far. It's my 4th RS clio, and can't believe the difference so far. Current mods are a bmc cda, and a blueflame exhaust. Future plans -New gear knob (ordered) -Parrot bluetooth kit (ordered) -New...
