They kind of creak a little bit at full lock you'll hardly notice it!

I'm still confused as to what/why its scuffing even a Trophy on 182 cup shocks and springs shouldn't scuff or bottom out at all, and a Trophy on standard shocks and springs shouldn't either, sounds like somethings not quite right to me! Anyway that's by the by, sachs + sportlines + soild top...

The sport lines are fine on standard dampers, seems to drop a trophy a bit less than a standard 1*2 , I have solid top mounts and it does feel a lot better although ride comfort is definitely compromised!

Yea standard plugs, pretty sure they're specific to the clios engine, they're ngks and your best option

I'd be more inclined to go with sportlines over the prolines they're a lot better suited and a tried and tested combo, not heard or seen many guys using prolinee on a Trophy !

Doesnt sound right! Is it a standard setup at the moment? Shouldnt be scuffing at all with spirited driving!

I have the adjustable rear koni's on mine, from memory they were about £170 for the pair, also if you decide to go down the koni route make sure you look at the picture by picture guide on cliosport.net as the instructions for assembling the top mounts are pretty useless and its quite easy to...

as Marc said in his original post the colour is hard to replicate and the ebay ones just come in a set variety of colours from what i can see none of which exactly match the Trophy decals.

Does that mean there will be more sets available? Could do with a set of these as mine are looking fairly tired!

Alternatively you could buy a new insert, I got some of the silver carbon effect ones out of a 172 I think got the gear and steering inserts and both dash inserts in mint condition for about £22 on eBay!!

Michellin Pilot Sport 3's would be the obvious choice as theyre a replacement for the original Pilot Exalto 2 tyres, theyre pretty good although i found they felt a little softer but i never tried the XL versions. I run Hankook V12 Evo's and for the money i think they are superb. I know BigDave...

I see what you mean it does look a bit odd, possibly parked at a bit of an angle

Looks well grubby now! Was shiny for all of about 4 days :(

Rear adjustable konis are a slightly cheaper option also offer a bit more adjustment over the standard shocks, a few of the guys on here run them including myself

That was me possibly! On my way to clean the horses out with the missus!

theres one being broken on ebay at the moment, complete boot lid with struts and spoiler for like £500 or something ridiculous

Can't say ive heard of many people having this issue! Only similar problem i had was on a mk1 clio where the wiper motor seized up but after a couple of bangs with a hammer it came back to life and hasnt had a problem since!

Knows it! Why spend £20 or so on items that are destined to fail when you can knock a pair up for £8, 18 months now and they're still going strong and no issues!

Unless you knock up a set of polybushed ones yourself with some powerflex exh-008's

http://www.climairuk.com/ Still waiting for mine to arrive from germany but worth the moneys!

SirDave had the H&Rs fitted and rated them quite highly! Not heard of anyone using ASTs as a replacement for the Sachs, no luck tracking down a set of Sachs front units ??

I wouldn't bother! Personally I think the brakes feel a lot better without the shims in!

mine started doing this once i removed the shims, i just ignore it mostly!

I'm with Aviva, 9 years driving, 8 years NCB, Policy came out at £405, added the stainless exhaust, solid top mounts, harnesses, removal of rear seats, koni rear shocks and a remap and it went up to £422

It was up in the car park, I sat opposite it for about 25mins while I was waiting for the missus

Sorry i got mixed up! Must of been Tom229 i just didnt read the other thread properly! I gather he goes to college there!

Don't be hating on the mightly Clio 182 Trophy tractor edition!

Sjparker I'm guessing? Looks a lot better than mine does!!

I believe bigdave has a set in need of a refurb, whether or not he'd sell them, if not ask around on here or cliosport!
