    Opinion Needed. Should I or Shouldn't I?

    Yeah the handbrake is a little OTT but it was just to get an idea what it could look like.

    Cliosport 'sheep' BAA BAA

    Right I have put my 2pence worth in. Bunch of muppets. :lol: The number of times people go on about how expensive the Trophy is and thats it not as good as a cheaper 182 with coilovers. They should have a rule that bans anyone who has not driven the Trophy talking out of there bum...

    Just done the rear window mod!

    LOL I made it very clear to the Dealership that I would not be having any form of Stickers on the car, apart from the ELF and my Trophy sticker, when I bought the car. I went to pick it up and as promised they had left all of the sticker off and not even fitted the tax disc holder, which was...

    Caged! (56 no way)

    Looks great really like the idea of being able to take it out at a later date. The black cover is for the Fuel pump and senders. Little trick if the cars going to be sat around a long time and you are worreid about it getting stolen disconnect the plug.

    Gran Turismo!!!!!!!

    You would need to speak to the coders at Sony to see if it was vesable. It wont happen in GT5 as the game is nearly due for release, if like Test Drive for the 360, GT5 has the option of uploading new cars, there may be a greater chance of seeing the Trophy, but it would still be a long shot...

    you learn something everyday....

    LOL I have know that for a long time, but were sworn to keep this hush hush. The Xtreme Range is ment to compete with the EBC Range and therefore the prices have been set around the average EBC price. The compounds are very slighty different, but where as with EBC you have a choice of Green...

    Problems starting trophy

    I have a close family friend who owns an Aston Martin, and even he has said that in the past 25years of owning cars, customer service has dropped to an all time low, he can recall buying his first brand new car which belive it or not was a Rover. He would take the car back for regular...

    1/43rd Scale model of the Trophy

    Cue I fully understand where your coming from, the main issue is that the Renault Brand as a whole (including the Renault font and badges) are a trademark and any reproduction of this has to be approved by the legal owner. This is done so as to keep the value of the trademark (Clio Sport and...

    Problems starting trophy

    I can't believe that it has taken them this long to sort the problem out, All this cr@p that they dont have the correct wiring loom for the Trophy is a joke, this must mean that when ever an issue like this arises for eaither the 172/182Cup/182FF and the Trophy which I am sure will and has...

    Well in terms of getting the model made I will be sending a portfolio of pictures including all of the details such as the Logo on the side skirts, Boot Spolier and the Recaros. I have had a look at some of the other one off models that they have done and it seems as if they can do small...

    1/43rd Scale model of the Trophy

    Well as said there are many people on CS and Renault sport that would probably have one just for the collection, so its just a matter of seeing how many people I can get to say yes. As soon as I get a reply from the manufactures I will update you all. Steve

    1/43rd Scale model of the Trophy

    I have been in touch with IXO Models who manufacture a few of the Renault Models for the dealerships to see if they would be willing to manufacture the Trophy as a limited edition model. Normally they will only think about doing this if they produce 1000 units at a time, but I have asked...

    Freshly Clean With a Twist

    Alright then I will tell you what i am up to. We picked up a 125 Typhoon Scooter the other week for a bargin price of £50. It needed a bit of work doing to it as the front Brembo caliper was seized against the disc and the body work had seen better days. We drove it back in a hired...

    brake pad warning light

    The Trophy dosent have any warning light when the pad are low, so its just a case of checking them on a regular basis. TBH the disc will go before the pads, I have just replaced my pads and discs and the pads still had a bit of life left in them (Standard OE Pads)

    This is exactally what I was thinking, at the end of the day if these little tw@ts see something they like, and there is an opportunity to have it they wont stop at just braking the window, they will prise the door open, drill the lock, or if they still have no look and they are frustrated do...
