to be fair, you need to be comparing insurance quotes with an identical excess - a higher excess will reduce the premium slightly...
but you need to remember also that the Trophy is a group 17 (182 is 16) and that the Trophy was only produced in 500 cars, whereas there was 5522 182's made...
Matty was the previous owner of my first Trophy and when he sold it he left the plate on. Then when i wrote 328 off I put the plate on retention and then put it onto 474... hope thats making more sense :D
that's an unusual splitter choice on the Black Gold.... agree though that you seem to have covered most bases for a potential new RS owner with that stock list
Monaco Blue still looks as great as ever
Thanks for the messages... it's a great community and i'll be sticking around, just won't be visiting as regularly as i used to.
10 months as a moderator and owned 2 Trophys for a period of 15 months and 19500 miles, i'll be looking back on the site to make sure Rudi is looking after 474, and...
Sadly, i think the time has come for me to step down as a moderator. The amount of time I am spending on the site over the last few weeks has been getting less and less and I rarely have the time that i used to have to commit to the site.
The sale of my Trophy, followed by the sudden loss of...
no probs fella.... if it looks like mine does, thats about the worst state it'll be before you can get it fixed - i.e. if you have more oil seepage than me then you should book it in

That was on my first Trophy. My guy at Renault said it could be done at Renault but it's a common thing... mine never used any extra oil so was just a little bit of weeping. He told me that if it got worse (i.e. noticeable oil usage) it could be done under...
Mine would be :
1) Escort RS Cosworth
2) BMW M3 E30
3) Original Mini Cooper from the Italian Job
4) BMW 750iL
5) Mustang like Steve McQueen drove in the Bullitt
yeah i've been reading that... it started off as being informative but has finished off with a lot of people slagging each other off and bordering on getting racial too [-X
haha... mine was a very special Trophy as i'm sure Rudi will confirm :wink:
for some reason when i bought them, my ebay seller thought i might like an extra one for free (in case i fancied one on the back window perhaps, or more likely that i fucked one up when applying the sticker :P )
thought i might as well share my take on things seeing as how Amie's 182 has been tinkered with suspension wise.
Initially she had it lowered for looks on Apex 40mm springs. Yes it looked very good but it was bloody crashy on near enough every single road surface. However, about 4000 miles...
Approx 15.5cm Wide x 3cm High (6†x 1.25â€Â)
The word Recaro in red lettering - i never got round to fitting them to mine before selling it
