I wonder what their dealer principle would think of such 'professional' correspondence to potential customers?

:D Lol! Pretty good Steve! P.S. How much did the re-trim on the rear bench cost? ;) ;) ;)

Yep - as Hoolio says there were replies to just about every active thread on here - which fuel? if it wasnt red? trophy keyrings, etc - my favourite was 'I am abcutelly god' Each one was brilliant! This time last week i was sitting laughing away to myself in this very chair whilst reading...

What did the garage say about the site? What made you immediately think there might be something wrong with the car? As far as i'm aware its a car thats not on the owners register here so no-one actually knows the car or anything about it. It was discussed on here because the dealers seem...

Cheers Shabba, the one i was told about definitely fitted the standard head unit and wasn't iPod specific - this is the one i'm after really....

I remember someone telling me they had a cable coming from the back of their headunit (using the connector for the cd changer i believe) and being able to plug in their (non iPod) MP3 player and be able to use the steering wheel audio controls (limited functionality maybe?)- this was ages back...

Cheers Cue, dropped them a mail yesterday (PM'd you about it). And cheers to Steve for the link.

Sounds good Steve, did the guy give any indication of a time frame for producing these? i really want a numbered one but dont have my Trophy yet?! If theres a good chance it'll take another week or so for these then i might have one by then (fingers crossed) Hmmm - Thanks to who for finding...

Nice one Pacey - that works a treat! Cheers ;) Awww - just noticed it doesnt work for the active threads box on the main index page ;(

lol! I like it ;)

I see your point Hoolio - could be. Maybe we could go for a longer thinner piece of carbon fibre then - that would be a bit different? These arent the official clio trophy ones though Hoolio so were not originally based on the site logo - i believe there is another thread for official clio...

Not that i'm aware of, its a good suggestion and maybe Nik could shed some light on it for you. I guess there might always be a few little improvements that could be implemented but understand that finding time is probably a contributing factor for things like this. I've always thought that...

Nice one Steve - the keyrings are looking pretty slick in the images there ;) Although.... ...and i'm ready to be shot down in flames here - dare i say the 'Clio' logo dwarves and overpowers the 'Trophy' logo on the images shown. I think omitting the word Clio and enlarging the size of the...

Rory - Not sure Nigel is doing you that much of a favour here - it seems Nigel from BlueFlame is selling them at £270 on eBay? Maybe i'm missing something though http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-Spor ... dZViewItem I'd be interested in a Janspeed group buy if there was one going...

I'm not too sure with regards to your question relating to the warranty on the dampers - maybe someone on here with friends or family that work for Renault could clear up what is and isnt covered? Sounds like a poor show from renault on this one - i hope you get this resolved though. Just...

Not too sure where/what Electric Barnes Hill is but if you post a link to the advert on autotrader or provide some details on the car i'm sure someone will be able to help you out. Might even be someone on here thats selling it! :) Hope you get the info you need.

Yeah, such a shame the poll and discussion threads were unnecessarily removed - the only example of his eloquent posts can be found in the locked(?) thread under the 'site suggestions' section of this site. As far as i'm concerned there was no harm done either, it was no big deal and provided...

Sorry Nik - i find that response to be quite inept and inadequate really. You seem to contradict yourself somewhat in what you have written and look to have skirted any points of concern that were raised in my initial post.

Sorry people, felt the need to post this as due to a 'cover up' by the Super Moderators (aka Laughter Police?) most of you will probably never know the amusement you missed out on this morning. Seems that one of the moderators had a little too much to drink last night and made a LOT of posts...

Still not an owner i'm afraid Steve - hopefully within the next couple of weeks tho - if i can locate the 'right' car. Viewed one at the weekend which was described as showroom condition but unfortunately was nowhere near it - more details on that amusing story to follow later possibly. I...

I have to say that the red paint is one of the most unappealing things about Trophy ownership for me, i understand colour choice is a very personal thing - so some people will love the red paint - but for me, if the car was made available in another colour or two - i probably wouldnt choose red...

Yep thats a good call - good thinkin Cue!

Actually just had a look at the sales data and breakdown for the standard 182's - its even worse than the Cup's - seems it was completely beyond whoever compiled it to actually create an additional column holding data for cars with both cup and suspension packs. Surely when you create things...

Here's another thing from the Renault heritage pages, we were discussing how few 182 Cups there were - 539 registrations in total.... If i look at the breakdown i.e where they say 'of which' they list 300 with no options, 37 with Recaros, and 208 with Comp stripes thats 545 in total...

Hmm, i think i'd be asking for a nosey round this alleged stripped out Trophy racer (as it seems quite an unusual thing to do) before i bought the seats. Because if it doesnt exist then i'd be thinking theres a chance that some poor 182 or Trophy owner out there is missing either his car or...

Are they from a written off car? I'd be checking i wasnt unknowingly buying stolen goods.

Can you just confirm Steve that we are going for just the Trophy logo in the correct font on one side - nothing else? I think that'll look better than cluttering things up by adding the word 'Clio' in front of it. Cheers BC

Yeah, seems weird to have 552 as the total number of cars, hopefully someone can shed some light on it - maybe Jeremy T from RUK? Its quite interesting looking at the figures for sales data that they provide for each model too - i didnt realise there were so few 182 Cups registered.

More money saved indeed, thanks for the info George - very concise and informative. Having someone on here with that depth of knowledge is invaluable. I think you should be referred to simply as 'The Oracle' from now on ;)

Cheers Cue - hopefully they'll be along soon. Is it yourself Cue that has removed the rear bench completely? Or is that Ollie? Just wondering what the thoughts were on this - has it affected the handling or made the back end feel any different? Quite fancy doing this when i get mine - ditch the...
