    Trophy Passenger Seat Questions

    Had my Trophy nearly a month now and I've a couple of quick questions about the passenger seat. 1) In the "secrets" sticky thread it says "There is a rectangular 'cubby' area under passenger front seat to store items such as wheel locking nut, first aid box etc." Is this for real? Where is...

    Did My First Trophy Track Day Yesterday

    And mighty fine it was too. I'm very, very impressed with the car. :) The weather was mostly absolutely terrible, but the lil' Clio only got passed by one other car the whole evening, and that was a VW Beetle from the Beetle Cup, running an R32 engine and full race wets! I've got some pics from...

    London Owners with Uprated brakes... help please

    So having been on holiday driving hire cars for a couple of weeks, I came back and thoroughly enjoyed the chance to 'enjoy driving' again in my trophy - it was even more fun than I remembered (and interestingly having been away from it a bit in Punto's etc, the drining position actually seemed...

    Opinion Needed. Should I or Shouldn't I?

    Right I have a spare set of dash inserts and trying to get hold of a spare gear knob insert and the steering insert. Was just wondering what you lot thought about this.

    Trophy with Xenons on Pistonheads

    As above http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/184315.htm Anyone on here? If so it would be interesting to know what was involved in the conversion in terms of parts, complexity and cost as people have enquired about this previously iirc.

    172 or 182 cup?

    I know this has probably been done to death but friend of mine has to sell his EVO5, too expensive with the arrival of another rugrat. He can't afford a Trophy so wants to get the next best, opinions please.

    Gran Turismo!!!!!!!

    Ok guys, I believe that for the majority of us we grew up playing GT on our playstations and dreaming of fast cars and laguna seca. Well after playing the latest demo of Colin crae dirt on the 360 all I can think about is how happy it would make me to see the trophy in the new Gran Turismo...

    1/43rd Scale model of the Trophy

    I have been in touch with IXO Models who manufacture a few of the Renault Models for the dealerships to see if they would be willing to manufacture the Trophy as a limited edition model. Normally they will only think about doing this if they produce 1000 units at a time, but I have asked...

    V6 255 Seats

    I was looking through some really quite excellent pictures that I found somewhere on the internet of some Clios that went to the South of France (there was a Trophy there, by the way). Amongst the cars was a Liquid Yellow V6 255, but it had what appeared to be the very same Recaro seats as the...

    Have Trophys lost their appeal?

    Having being trying to sell my Trophy for a couple of weeks now I have not had a single call. I can only put it down to these reasons: 1) It is overpriced. (seems about the right price compared to others) 2) There are too many others currently for sale (only found about 3 others nationally)...

    Front Splitter Part Number

    Having ordered a front splitter from my local dealer earlier today, I got it home a minute ago only to open the box and find that it is infact the part from a 1.2 Clio Plastique. They ordered the part using the car's chassis number, so I have no idea how the wrong part could have turned up...

    Help me out here guys - GeorgeK, Donkey, anyone?

    http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/community ... hichpage=3 I'm drowning in stupidity over there. Someone talk some sense into those people who think the Trophy would corner better if it didn't cock a rear wheel under hard braking and cornering. Include some pictures of FWD race cars doing the...

    Thinking Of Getting One Of These Things

    Hello all, I'm David and I'm thinking of getting a Clio Trophy. :) I currently drive an Audi TT Quattro Sport (that I've only owned for six weeks!) and before that I had a Ford Focus RS. I keep reading about how great the Trophy is and it's gradually drawing me in. I suspect I could have a...
