As I was moving cars about & an opportunity to take a quick pic presented itself. The Trophy next to my Lancia integrale EVO & our recently purchased EP3 Civic Type-R Premier Edition.

Good day chaps! My recent MOT revealed a leaking driver's side damper. So it's my intention to whip the shocks off, send them to BG for refurb, off which i have just emailed. Just a note, I emailed Mark Fish first, who basically said use BG as they have the market covered for this job. While...

I'm thinking of starting to machine polish the trophy as i can see some general swirling which would be nice to get rid of. Has anyone been doing this on there T? Does anyone know is our paint clear coat or two part and does the paint seem to be quite soft? I should find this by experimenting...

The shell is a 2000 W road legal Ph1 shell with history, v5 etc. 72k (ish) miles, will have to check clocks. Cat C damaged years ago but kind of irrelevant now as stripped to a bare shell there is no damage. Fitted with a full weld in CDS Custom Cages cage to all suspension pick up points...

For those of you who don't use cliosport, thought i'd post up my new race car for this season for you to have a look at. Picked it up at the weekend, ex 2006 TCR Onslow-cole Championship winning car. Driven it the grand total of about 20 yards so far, on and off the trailer and into the garage...

Has anyone attempted to use a bike rack on the trophy. I am a little concerned at the pressure it will put on the rear spoiler. i have one of those strap type versions that you fit/hook around the boot area. Previous vehicle I could fit the strap underneath the spoiler, the trophy you cannot...

What is a trophy worth in bits? The car in question is completely standard with engine failure Dampers are fine, one wheel has a kerb mark that I can see and the mileage is 65-70k miles. I'm informed the gearbox is fine and the recaro's are in mint condition, any help is appreciated

I've seen another racecar for sale so am breaking my unfinished racer. Pics of most things can be seen on my site HERE Anything specific just ask and i can get you pics and more details. Also i can fit any of the parts, just ask for a quote. Collection preferred from Carlisle for the big stuff...

I'm looking for a Mint Williams 1 in good condition that has not had any paint, no rust. Mileage isn't an issue as long as the history/reciepts show that it has been looked after. I am VERY fussy but have cash waiting for the right example, up to £10k. Mat.

I have been into detailing now for the last year, on my own car only. However after doing a few friends cars and several others through word of mouth I have decided to start doing it on my days off from work. This is the process which i take; Wash Clay bar the full car Wash again Dry all...

Hi Guys, Unfortunatly it looks like my time with the Trophy is up :-(, since moving I am doing a lot of motorway miles and I just can't bear to be the one to rack them up, so going to have to sell and get something more economical and comfier on long journeys. Im putting it on sale first on...

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...

As from tomorrow #244 is spending a whole week (I'm also away for work) in the garage getting all the parts I have been meaning to get done for the past 21 months sprayed. I removed the bumper and side strips last ngt, saving myself a few hundreds of pounds. In all the car will come out like...

Hi guys. Been a busy few weeks so not been on for while! I've been thinking about replacing the Clio, and amoung the current selection of contenders is the E39 M5. Yes, I know its a BMW... Wankers, no indicators blah blah etc, (I'd say the same..). They are a very good car, in all areas, and...

Hey guys, Just wondering if you have any experience of having your paint chips removed with either a scratch/chip removal service or even a DIY kit? I've been thinking about getting a few done on my car and just wanted to know your thoughts on these companies that claim they can make it as...

After having dampers rfeubed, what have people used re-paint them? I noticed some people have used hammerite but isnt this a bit rough? Cheers

i woke this morning in a very good mood. went out to the trophy and put my work bag in the boot. shut the boot only to find that some little w$*ka had spray painted over the last letter of my number plate. the paint had dripped down onto the boot. as i was running late for work and the mrs was...

Hi guys, it is with deepest regret the trophy has to go, after so long of not wanting to use it for work and finally convincing myself it would be good to keep it, today I got laid off from work. Going by the current climate it could be weeks, even months before I get back into work so the 'T'...

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...

What's the best way for removing spot welded flies and moths from the bumper and bonnet? Is there a product someone can recommend that loosens them up so i can get them off without scrubbing and risking putting surface marks on the paint. I've never known how to get them off properly and just...
