Not sure about the H&S exhausts for the 182's, there was a thread a while back on Cliosport about a few people who did a group buy with them and some of the guys had problems with alignment etc. I am not a member on there so I can't use the search function to see if there have been any updates...

VXR or wait for the new Civic Type-R (or even RR!) to be released. VXR looks better and has more power...

The mounts that you have marked on the right hand side of the picture are supplied by a company called Orbisoud, designed to be used with the single box exhaust also in the picture, they are not standard Renault items. To get hold of these you would be best to contact Orbisoud directly -...

:shock: Agreed that it is a shame to see it for sale, but hopefully someone willing to pay the extra for number 500 will keep the car in good condition and the miles down...

Sounds like a great trip Malc - very jealous! :D The R'sport Clio's are fantastic in the way that you can have huge amounts of fun on track, and then just drive home, and as you say the car does not miss a beat.

Looks good, love the Alpine head unit and screen! 8)

My reg starts LX55, but it ain't me! Do the first two letter of the reg identify where the car was supplied from? If so, I got mine from Master's in Croydon, and I thnk they ended up selling around 20 Trophy's so it may be quite hard to track down the owner...

Sorry to hear that you have sold up, but glad to hear that the deal went so smoothly! What are you replacing the Trophy with?

It's an ex-press car, now owned by Evo.

Glad to hear the test drive went well, never heard about any Trophy's being turned into rally cars, think that was a bit of dealer bullsh!t!

Despite the fact that they were awful to me in the past with my 5 Turbo and 172, SMC in Woking have been great with my Trophy, been there twice and had great service on both occasions.

Cheers Matt - All the best!

Thanks for the insight Harry, look forward to seeing the results of the re-match!

Great result! :D

Wow you guys do a lot of miles - I've only just past 6k in 6 months! I've got the same plan of cycling to work, had it since I got the car, still not got round to it though! :lol:

Same brake set up on the Trophy and Cup, so I would expect the glaze issue to be the same for both cars, and the Trophy Evo used was an ex press car that the Editiorial Director Harry Metcalfe bought direct from Reno! You are right though, I am still happier to have my Trophy than a Cup...

It does indeed work both ways, that's why I'm gutted about the time the Trophy got. I remember when I was at Bedford in Feb, there was a 182 Cup (pretty sure it was std) who I followed briefly during a couple of sessions and there was pretty much no difference - I just could not catch him! At...

Yeah, the Cup lap time was set ages ago, I've been waiting for six months (since I got my Trophy) to see how much the Trophy would beat it by - should have known better than to get my hopes up! :roll:

No idea mate...

Just got my copy of this month's Evo through the post, and after checking out their figures for the Trophy, my engine excuse has been blown out of the water as they recorded better 0-60 and 0-100 figures for the Trophy than they have for the Cup (in brackets) - 0-60 = 6.6 (6.7) and 0-100 = 17.25...

:oops: Hook, line and sinker!

Are you serious?!? Compared to other forums we were pretty tolerant of Stromba's rantings, Nik and the mods gave Stromba a fair chance, and kept him on the forum even when loads of people were asking for him to be banned...this is a good April fools joke, just don't take the piss!

A joke is a joke fair enough, just don't take it too far, Nik is a sound chap and does not deserve having his forum taken away from him!

That sucks mate, looks like a nasty dent, hope you manage to get it sorted. Unfortunately you probably are in the minority, people are just so selfish these days.

:shock: Impressive stuff Stromba and Williams104, but surely this is going to far?!?! When you going to hand the site back to Nik?

:shock: Gutted! Every car is different at the end of the day, maybe the Cup had a particularily strong engine compared to the Trophy, but then again this is a weak excuse, perhaps Reno have made claims that were not true...

Hello Mate, welcome to the forum! Interesting move going from a V6 to a Trophy, what's the reasoning behind your decision?

No need to say anymore, it's always best to check the car before setting off on a lap! :wink:

Great video Jon - good work on keeping up with that M3, sure he had more power but you were right on him all through the Wipperman and Brunchen sections! :D Quick question for you - Was this on a trackday, and that's why you were allowed to film?

Looks very impressive oliie - super shiney! Keep us posted on how it performs, I would have thought that some road grime/dirt will need more than just water to get it off, but I guess this stuff prevents the dirt from sticking to the paint surface? :?
