    Newcomer to Trophy ownership!

    Hello all! After a flirtation with a 182 some time ago I have decided it is time to investigate the best of the breed and have just become the new owner of Trophy #051. Seemingly the first item I will need to attend to is a refurb of the distinctly tired Sachs dampers and have already spoken...

    My boot lid keeps dropping when open so I ordered some replacement gas struts. I ordered using my reg number but seem to have received just standard 182 struts as they are too long. The supplier says they are correct for the car but if I give him a part number he will look at it. Can anyone...

    Rear discs?

    I'm due to be changing my rear discs. I have bought standard ones with the abs ring and bearing already attached. Are these still just a simple swap like the front ones would be, or is there a little more to it when the bearing and abs ring is involved? Thanks.

    Hi, I collected my new trophy yesterday (437) and the rear dampers have been changed by one of the previous owners to the normal 182's. I am wanted to go back to the original Sachs ones. Can you still buy new rear Sachs dampers from renault or will I have to hunt else where? Thanks.

    Rear seats?

    Hi, I'll be taking home my trophy very shortly. The one I'm buying has cloth rear seats that don't match the fabric of the rest of the car what so ever. However I've noticed in pictures on here that some people have some that match the recaros. Just wondered if it is meant to have matching rear...
