    Red R27 - No. Plate D4VP C

    Hi Mark Interesting this as a few engine failures have been reported on MS over the last few weeks, in those cases the majority appeared to be in the north of the country and running on V Power. Worrying to think that maybe fuel grades are deteriorating across all suppliers :shock: A Harlow...

    To swap or not to swap?

    My Trophy is a cracking car and as genuine as you'll find. I was the second owner of it. I bought it from a similarly besotted owner who had it for 5.5k but needed something more economical to commute to Docklands in. The R26 is a great package and i'm enjoying the extra comfort but i'll let...

    To swap or not to swap?

    It's done. And I'm absolutely loving it :D Mark was a top bloke and the car is just in mint condition throughout. Haven't had any back road blasts yet but so far it feels super smooth and planted. I'll keep you posted on progress.

    To swap or not to swap?

    Still undecided but comments appreciated. I'm not really looking to go up the ladder as such, sideways is fine with me, I just fancy a change but for something that has many of the Trophy's qualities and the R26 seems to be that car. I think It's a bit more modern, quicker, more comfortable...

    Exhaust gas monitor light

    The warranty ran out on the 13th! :roll: I have the MOT centre boss phoning me soon i'll let you now what he says, but I think you're right about the O2 sensor. I spoke to Mark Fish about it and he reckons leave it unitl it's booked in with him on the 7th August, for new tyres, and if it...

    Exhaust gas monitor light

    Had the MOT done yesterday and when I picked it up the exhaust gas monitor light was on (engine shape symbol on the vertical right hand side). What may have caused this, will it go out and can I blame it on the garage or just one of those things that happen during MOT's? Renauly want £50 to...

    Lower Ball joint

    All done and for free :) They replaced the lower ball joint and the lower arm, the ecu bracket and the sump gasket all under warranty and without any dispute. Great service in all, apart form a mix up with my identity but a minor detail really. I then had to pay a visit to MARK Fish to sort...

    Lower Ball joint

    Thanks for that Gazza, will definitely keep in mind. I didn't consider Braintree. I work 1 minute from Darlingtons Harlow so, depsite my reservations, it's currently being operated on there! Some corrective surgery will undoubtedly be needed. I've had no phone calls yet so fingers crossed it's...

    Lower Ball joint

    The steering wheel suddenly settled slightly off centre and the steering turning left seems to have stiffened but not anything major. Renault are currently looking at it so i've started work on my defence material, hopefully never to be aired. We'll see.

    Lower Ball joint

    Just had the 24,000 mile service carried out at Mark Fish, but with only 22k on the clock and he's found that the n/s lower ball joint is shot! Mark thinks it should be covered by the warranty but the by the reaction i received when booking the car in at Renault i'm not so sure they share his...

    Trophy 93 for Sale

    Did you know the original owner Funky? Two completely bonkers owners S3 YOO has been spoilt with just hope the tlc continues with the new one. The plate is perfect for the car, they belong together and it's amazing how people recognise the plate first, car second and me third!

    Alloy Touch Up

    A bad start to the year. Just a moments lapse of concentration, mind on the balti I was abou to collect and devour and scrape! Just wondered if anyone knows if a touch up paint, or one that is of a similar colour, is available? It would suffice I think, it's not too bad and has only really...
