    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    I agree, I don't know what it is about the DC2's but the 15's are perfect.

    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    tbh, they are blimmin massive. I think the design of them makes them look larger than 18's. Parked next to something with 15's it's almost ridiculous! I know what you mean Gaz, would love to see what they look like on the Trophy!

    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    Will have to get some pics up of the new LSD beasts together me thinks Steve. Glad you enjoyed the drive. I have been getting steadily more impressed with the R26 as the miles pile up - on all of nearly 600 now!!! It shames me to say it, but it really does make the trophy feel slow. Having...

    At last someone selling instead of giving away?

    I will eat the bloody thing if he manages to get anything near that price. He'll be lucky to get over 11k for it I reckon. £10500 is more realistic.

    TROPHY No.298/500 FOR SALE - 21,300 MILES - ***SOLD***

    Can't be a DC5, not light enough or cheap enough. Same with 172, not enough power?! Come on Steve own up.

    TROPHY No.298/500 FOR SALE - 21,300 MILES - ***SOLD***

    I'm completely stumped. Is it a mineral? Was it on Home and Away? Is it a female? etc . . .

    TROPHY No.298/500 FOR SALE - 21,300 MILES - ***SOLD***

    Sounds interesting Steve!! So you'll be overlooking the park? Nice. You could get an air rifle and start taking pot shots at the travellers! Just let me know when you're around, what have you got as a new toy then?!

    TROPHY No.298/500 FOR SALE - 21,300 MILES - ***SOLD***

    Good luck Steve, looks like the end of an era in Brighton!! We're just about to halve the population of Trophy's! :( Whereabout's are you buying a flat? When do you fancy going for a spin?

    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    I really thought that the stickers would grow on me, but they just look like carpet tiles on the roof and the bumper stickers just take away from the lines of the car I reckon. It's bizarre driving it, as the Trophy was really quite noisy inside - with the blue flame n all, but this is...

    My Trophy - Number 474......... now REDUCED to £10995

    Not going to say openly on here what I got for mine in the end on trade in, but suffice to say, for a 16k mile A1 example I only had 2 serious enquiries in over 3 weeks of advertising. Everyone else just wanted to see if they could pay nothing for it. Then said 'those back seats are a bit duff'...

    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    What counts as a Chav rev counter??!! Re the Liquid Yellow, I think it is just a bit much tbh and also as Gareth says, they're becoming a little bit common now!!! I fancied the black as I was looking for a bit more of a Q car. Hence the majority of the stickers coming off too.

    R26 - First impressions

    Steve - wait till you have a go in it buddy. I think you might just be converted!! :wink:

    R26 pics (it's kind of a clio?!)

    They literally just peeled off. Used nothing other than my hands. They didn't leave any residue on the front and back ones and the roof ones just left a tiny amount of glue which came straight off with some Meguiars scratch X. Piece of cake, literally took 15 min. I can't believe they would...

    Finally got some pics, they're not great but at least they'll give you an idea. Enjoy . . .

    Grrrrr...

    Renault quoted me £140 for one. I decided to leave it. When I traded it in, the garage didn't even notice luckily :lol:

    R26 - First impressions

    Pictures will be up as soon as it's not raining and I've managed to give it a nice spruce! Hopefully by the weekend. If not then it will be there in the flesh at FCS.!

    R26 - First impressions

    Well, 2 days in and the stickers are off. I tried to persuade myself that I liked them but I just couldn't make it stick. (no pun intended!) I had the chance to take it for a spin on one of my favourite routes yesterday on some fairly damp roads and can safely say that I am massively...

    R26 - First impressions

    Well, it's been a day of mixed emotions and 500 odd miles in 2 very special cars. I left Brighton this morning and took a roundabout route to Cheltenham via the A272 (one of the best roads in the South of England) in the Trophy and even in the completely atrocious conditions I still had a very...

    Cliotrophy.co.uk - + R27 + R26?!!!

    Anyway, back on topic, it was the Meganesport.net forum that got me thinking. They've got sections for the different range of Meg's i.e. Renaultsport CC Sporthatch etc And I thought we could maybe keep the Cliotrophy title and logo - after all, it is still the definitive...

    Cliotrophy.co.uk - + R27 + R26?!!!

    I've got a lovely Clio Trophy for sale if you want that to see you through Gareth?! :wink: You could sell yours, then buy mine and then sell that when the R26 arrives!

    Cliotrophy.co.uk - + R27 + R26?!!!

    Very nice too mate. I was very tempted when I saw that, but Black's hard enough to keep clean, never mind white!!! We'll have to park them up when you get yours. They will look cracking next to each other. Little bit jealous now!!!! The white looks fantastic. :wink:

    Cliotrophy.co.uk - + R27 + R26?!!!

    Seeing as more and more of us are moving on to other limited edition Renaultsports, what's everyone's feelings about extending the scope of the sight to effectively incorporate ltd edition clio's, meganes??? Basically try and make it a niche site that's slightly more encompassing for those of us...

    How Fast Have You Taken Your Car?

    My GPS reads very close to the speedo. At 70mph on the speedo my GPS reads about 68.5 It's still no more than 3-4mph out by 90mph. I reckon they're actually pretty close on the Clio. Unlike my old C2 VTS which was massively out and even that wasn't as bad as a hired transit a few months back...

    Possible good deal on a Trophy for someone...

    How Fast Have You Taken Your Car?

    Think it hit about 110 down the back straight at Brands Hatch, but there is very little pick up over the ton. That's not what they're for though. It's all about 30-70 where they are absolutely perfect. :D

    Trophy #185 - new home needed! Price dropped to £10,000!

    OK, running out of time now. If anyone knows anybody who is after a Trophy then I'm ready to take a hit on the price. I'm trying to be discreet about it as I don't want to knock the prices at the moment. But it has to go and I'd rather it went to someone rather than the garage as a trade in!!!
