    FS: Trophy 038/500

    Just given 038 a polish and some new pics. Would come with a new MOT. If you know about these, and most here do, all the maintenance and new parts on this add up to a fortune. I'm on the fence about selling it as it owes me more, but it is a stock car, I have an R26.R I'd like to keep and how...

    Are Trophy and 182 rear springs different?

    Not only have I snapped a precious Eiback front, I've also snapped a rear spring. I know the Trophy front spring is different from the 182, but what about the rear... is it the same?

    Rear damper replacement options

    Apologies for bringing this up again but the recent spate of comments on suspension has prompted me to post. As I see it there are three options for replacing Trophy rear dampers: a) 182 Cup dampers (£65ish) b) Renault/Sachs Trophy-specific dampers (£115ish) c) Koni adjustable dampers...

    AST top mounts - Castor adjustment

    Can anybody who has AST top mounts advise on the rough value of full castor? I've read on clio sport that it's advised to run them at max castor (from respected people not the usual idiots) but from what i can find the Trophy has more castor than other sport models as standard so maybe this...

    I finally cleaned the Trophy.

    Essentially, on Saturday, somebody parked their rather clean looking Trophy in our car park next to mine, the gf noticed & said, 'that red clio's really nice'.

    The answer to my handling problem...

    Over the last 3/4 weeks I've been having a handling problem with the Trophy. Everything felt fine until I entered a left hand bend and I would turn the wheel but instead of turning in sharply the car would take a very wide path no matter how much I turned the wheel. I checked the tyre pressures...
