image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg Unfortunately I have to part with #262 due to house purchase. I purchased it in August from Jon and his wife who is also a member on here, it was registered in Jon's name originally but then he registered it in his wife's name to export it to Australia, he already had a Clio V6 in his name which he was going to export that aswell, 1 car per person. On the v5 I'm the fifth owner.

I searched high and low for the very best example that was available for sale. This trophy must be one of the very best and you will not be disappointed.

Bodywork:
#262 is in exceptional condition with a few minor chips on front bumper and bonnet, I have thought about getting these repaired but the paintwork is original so decided against it. There's not a mark, scratch or dent. Wheels are also in excellent condition with no scuffs or kerbing. Sills are also like new with no damage from jacking the car up. Original number plates are also fitted.

Interior:
The interior is like new and also smells like a new car. The seats are also like new with no cracking of the bolsters. The steering wheel is also in excellent condition and I do have a snappy steering wheel which has 262 stitched into it which will be included in the sale. Original stereo is also fitted.

Mechanically:
The car needs for nothing and drives exceptionally well with no knocks or rattles, steering and suspension is solid and responsive, according to the owners register the Sachs shocks was refurbished back in 2011 by BG Motorsport by the original owner but I have no invoice for this, I have tried to contact James but to no avail.
Engine pulls well and only covered 40k miles and gearbox selects gears perfectly with no noises. Original exhaust still fitted, recent new brakes all round. Mot expires in August.
Servicing has been carried out by Renault and SG Motorsport well respected Clio V6 specialist.

30.08.16 39995 oil & filter, cambelt kit, altenator belt kit, water pump, dephaser pulley, gearbox oil, coolant, brake fluid & air conditioning service. During there service the steering wheel angle sensor was replaced as was showing a fault. Also the wheel arch liners were removed to clean. I also have photos of all this being done. Done by Renault Cardiff.

The car is hpi clear.

I'm looking for offers in region of £10,950 as I believe it's one of the very best.

Please feel free to contact me on 07930639415.

Please see trophy owners register #262 and pictures and photo section of #262.

I have more photos available.

Regards

Perfect MOT history.

Very minor advisory pings for

for pitted discs.. well any low use car suffers from that.

Misted shocks.. been refurbed

Worn tyres. Again nothing serious

Chipped windscreen.

Just to get a mk2 Clio thru 10 years and only get pinged for those is a credit to the owners.

The windscreen has been replaced due to the chip.

Update on #262 iv had a good offer on the trophy but have decided to decline it as i think its worth more than the offered price.

For goodness sake don't let it go cheap to a dealer, they are looking to snap these up and happy to sit on them with a good margin across them. I recall the last guy who had a similar car sold it to a dealer for about £7k who then put 2 grand plus on it and sold it fairly quickly

Oh you'll sell it alright. Hold out for what you want - very much a sellers market at the moment

When I bought mine there were hardly any people coming on here looking for a Trophy - you can't go 5 minutes without one popping up at present
