Driving at night who puts there fogs on every time ?

I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing. Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread. Do you, A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres? Or B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear. ?

This may have been discussed in dribs and drabs before but I thought I would resurrect it. During the recent weather, I notice that the car seems caked in crap which I think is partly down to dirt/salt being kicked up by the tyres. Curiously, the rear hatch seems to always be the worst affected...

Hi, Thought I'd sign up here to get some info from Trophy owners before I test drive some. I currently own a Peugeot 106 Rallye 1.3 which I really like and recently thought I would never sell as it does almost everything that I want in a car(no I dont want comfort!)-steering feel, chassis...

Hello! My first post on here and was just hoping for a bit of information to help me along the way. Thinking of selling my 172 cup and wanting to upgrade to a 182 trophy, i've looked at alternatives and feel the 182 trophy would be a great choice for me - has anyone else had a similar...

i some times get a quite ticking sound when my trophy is idling. usually when its been running for a while. it is due its major service but my other trophy does it aswell ? so dont no weather or not this is normal ?? any one elses does it ??

I am soon to fit some eibach sportlines to the Trophy. I know that this will affect the geometry somewhat so i was going to book it in to have a wheel alignment, but do i need camber correcting bolts as it is being lowered? Cheers

Has anyone else noticed the trophy (in flight) on the cover of the Evo special "performance car heroes" Basically it's just a compalation of old Evo features, but still worth a look, I'd post a pick but I can from my phone...

.please remove.

I recently bought some port matched inlets butbefore fitting I spent hours polishing up the out side before fitting. I complemented this with a polished strut brace that really doesn't offer much in way of performance increase but unlike the way it looks. Also did my own tacho change by buying...

Just wondering how the Trophy stacks up against later Clio's? Similar pace, but what's the true quality difference and any handaling differences.

Those with PS3s fitted - what tyre pressures are you using? I normally run 32 front but they seem a bit squidgy if you chuck the front around. I'm guessing a softer sidewall causes this? Gonna try 35 front later and have a tinker.

Hey guys, went to try a new Megane RS 250 this morning from Hylton Renault Worcester. I tried a FF 250 version not the cup version which I would personally opt for, but was quite impressed by it anyway. It felt very composed and the build quality is indeed leagues ahead of the 182, as most...

Hi guys I'm back in a Renault now not a trophy but a LY 182. Can you still buy orbisound exhausts and if so where from? The other question is are they worth it over a miltek? Thanks

Guys, your thoughts on the below please.. My T was serviced a number of months ago and has since covered approximately 1100 miles. Today it went for its MOT and failed on a ball joint. So my questions are... - Would you have expected a significant failure to occur within the space of a number...

ok i need help... i want to know where i can get... the tow eye for the front... a chrome battery cover or similar best air filter or induction kit code for the alloys to get them redipped and i was considering a bonnet scoop for her i need opinions

Hi all, I'm new to the forum and as yet, haven't even got myself an RS Clio . However, that is hopefully about to change in the next week or so and I'm looking to buy a Trophy. Other than the reading I've done on the net and the usual Clio buyers guides that I've found, I can't seem to locate...

Whilst i'm aware that some of you perhaps think that the Cliosport forum is a bit 'childish', 'chavvy' or simply below you as a Trophy owner ... having read some of the threads on here since i've had mine, i have been constantly amazed by the lack of knowledge that 85% of this forums users...

sorry cant post this vid but just watched a mad ken block video, he was in a fiesta but what a driver. Could he do better in a t !? simon.

***Now sold - Deposit taken 21/09/10*** Hi Guys, After purchasing number 322 from Gman (fellow forum enthusiast) last year, a move abroad means that our love affair with the Trophy must come to an end :cry: . Please see attached my Pistonheads advert which reads as follows...

I’ve just phoned my local tyre place (Tyres Northampton) who must be pretty reputable as most of the Evo writers use them and they told me Michelin have discontinued PE2s. I confirmed this with Michelin and was told Pilot Sport 3s are the replacement/next best thing. What do i do? Get PS3s...

Basically what i was wondering is how many people use their Trophy for what it was primarily designed for?, and im not necessarily talking about track days but also just goin out for a pointless drive or a bit of a blast on your favourite stretch of road. As daft as it sounds i sometimes feel a...

Spotted this evening - Just at the top of thornton road traffic lights coming down from Queensbury turning left ... Nice - Had a Type R civic behind it - new shape ... also in red I know which one I would prefer also had an EVO sticker in the back.

For sale is my 2005 Renault Sport Clio 182 Cup in Racing Blue, which has recently clocked 60,000 enjoyable and trouble free miles. I have owned the car for approximately two and a half years in which time it has been maintained regardless of cost and has been given some tasteful modifications to...

Unfortunately I'm going to have to sell the car I had planned on keeping forever. Due to a total change in career No.138 is for sale. - 30,538 miles - Registered August '05 - 1 previous owner - Full service history - Dampers refurbed by BG Motorsport mid August, covered roughly 500 miles...

Hey Guys, Have any of you seen the images of the New Clio Williams 220bhp in the Auto Express? Looks pretty nice I think, a lot sharper looking! Apparantly it's going to have the same F4R engine but increased to 220bhp, and apparantly goes back to a more lightweight body. If this does...

I was reading the M6 v Trophy article in EVO this morning and noticed when referring to the Michelin PE2s, that they said the car was fitted with 205/45/ WR16 tyres. This is both in the article and the "spec summary" at the end. I always thought PE2s on the Trophy were V-rated (to 150mph) -...

Okay, picked up Trophy 207 a couple of weeks back and today the quest began to make it like new! I'm aiming for a 100% factory-fresh look and feel and after not really getting anything much done in the past couple of weeks, progress is finally being made! Now, when I collected it, it was clear...
