    Hullo!

    Now don't shoot me, but I'm a Civic Type R driver, had one for 4 years and looking for a change. Been considering a cup for a while, and now that Trophies are starting to 'possibly' fall into my price range, I thought I'd do some research! Now there's no doubting the looks, performance...

    Link Pipe

    Hello all, I have just bought a Trophy. The previous owner didn't look after it too well and I am left giving it a bit of TLC. One problem is that the cat has a crack in it and its not covered under warranty. Renault service centre want £800 to replace it - I can't afford this and I'm taking...

    It's that time - have just passed 12k miles and it's due a service. Have booked it in with Masters of Shirley near Croydon - they reckon about 150 notes. Although I live in Brighton I'm going there because a) they're really nice people and b) I took 425 to the local Brighton dealer to get some...

    What's your 5K kick like?

    Over on cliosport.net I have read many threads that describe the 182’s 5K kick. I had often thought that these threads over hyped the kick as I can only just feel an increase at 5200 revs in my Trophy, but recently I drove Steve’s (sm wrc) 182 and his car really does kick...

    Your opinions please

    Already planning next car, won't be for a while yet. The thing with having the trophy is because it does things so well, i.e great handling, quick, pretty practical, comfortable with toys. It makes thinking about a new car pretty difficult. But I think i've narrowed it down to these 2. Your...

    Is the Renault Sport badge standard on the back of the Trophy? Was just looking at OliS' photos at Bedford at noticed the itallic 'Sport' badge under the Renault badge on the back. I have the 'Renault' part but not the 'Sport' part. Since I'm taking it back to the dealer for a missing...

    Exhaust Group Buy Interest?

    I quite fancy a replacement Cat Back system, I think the trophy could have a far nicer bark to it then the standard exhaust, it sounds way too 'mechanical' at the moment. I've been looking around and it seems a lot of people recommend ProSpeed. I saw GaryG's 182 at the Bedford trackday and it...

    Trophy modifications?

    Hi all. I'm seriously thinking about buying a Trophy in the next couple of months or so when the cash comes through and have a few questions.
