Thank you, and to Gareth too.

Yep, but I'd rather sell a set of nearly new wheels and buy a set brand new, than have mine 'modified'. I guess that's a bit of man-logic there but it just doesn't feel right to refurb pristine wheels.

A couple of pictures...

Does the RSTuner device address cold start / lumpy idle at all? I have a feeling I've read somewhere that it improves both.

Mappers include: Paul at RS Tuning in Leeds Scoff at EFI Parts in Runcorn Mike at Michael Woodford Motorsport in Staines Dan at SJM in Glastonbury K-Tec in Ringwood (nr Bournemouth) I'm sure there are more. Can anyone think of any other people that have plenty of experience mapping F4Rs?

A custom map. Whereabouts in the country are you?

New year, new colour and this summer I fancy anthracite. If I find a buyer for these I'll be buying identical wheels, no question on that front.

In mint condition having only covered a thousand miles since being bought new direct from Speedline. White with red graphics, but they're easily removed if surplus to requirements. Located in Newbury (RG14). Price & delivery negotiable.

Air/fuel ratio. It's the important one.

182 Cup dampers are £74.40 for a pair, delivered, inc. VAT as per Renault Wolverhampton parts on CS. Should I be looking to replace any other minor or major parts either when the Cup dampers go on or when the Sachs come back?

4 years / 18,000 miles since they were last at BG Silverstone and I think I'll be scheduling them for a return trip. Put the car away as I've done hundreds of times before, up the edge of the dropped kerb, but this time it made a very unusual noise, a real clonk. The bounce test revealed...

Rent-a-shock! Cheers Mike, I'll let you know.

What are the options for when the Sachs are off? 182 cup dampers? Anything else?

Mine has that LED. Weren't the alarms fitted on arrival in the UK?

If they're performing ok and you aren't considering selling then I'd be inclined to do nothing. When the time comes then get them refurbished but until then just enjoy the car for what it is.

In another 10 years, long after all Sachs rears have sold out, how many potential buyers will pass up buying my Trophy because it doesn't have them? 1/100? 1/10? 1/2? That will be my determinant as to whether I pick up a set or not, but of course it'll be a guess.

Do you think buyers in the next 5-10 years will demand these? Or do you think it will only be in exceptional cases where a buyer will insist that his intended purchase has these OEM rears? I guess I'm talking about a collector buying a sub-30,000 miler. Personally I'm just not convinced, but I...

I spoke to Greenlight and discussed the situation. They said it would be cheaper to get insured on my 330i BMW elsewhere, but that they'd happily insure the Trophy using the same level of years without claiming, as long as I provided proof. Officially my ncb is accruing on the BMW. Greenlight...

I insure my T with Greenlight (£260 with an agreed value of £7k), and they're mirroring my 10 years no claims on my other car, insured through another provider.

Sorry to hear of your circumstances but needs must. I'm sure you'll one day own a third! #140 sounds like a lovely example, very best of luck with the sale.

It seems to have delivered against what Renault/Renaultsport intended, and I'm sure it will sell in decent numbers. It's not the driver-focused machine like the Trophy we all know & love, but the game has moved on, and there's money to be made selling a warm/very warm hatch to the masses...

Mine doesn't, never did & never will. Plenty do though, but none were standard factory fit as far as I'm aware.

That is an enviable history nbc, where to next?

Ha ha ha ha ha

Great plotting!

To be fair it's worth what someone is prepared to pay for it. Personally I'd be inclined to agree with Marc's valuation. That said, there's no harm in advertising in line with Mikey's suggestion, and if there's no interest then come down a step. No major loss if it doesn't sell at £4.5k.

Loving your work - very, 'Fifty Shades of Damon' ;)

Thanks for remembering us over here on Clio Trophy ;)

Let's hope they don't retail them at £600...each!
