I bought one from ebay, slight scuff with an almost brand new tyre, £85 delivered.
His user name on ebay is CIT-REN, he is a breaker and has only sold 2 Turinis from a scrapped Trophy, maybe worth dropping him a line!
I'm off 20th to represent work in a few competitions then hopefuly for another 3 weeks in March, can't wait.
Off to Saalbach in Austria just for a week on the 20th Jan, trying to extend it for 2 weeks!
LOL, that made my night reading that. I work away and when I get home on days off the first thing I do is find an excuse to take the Trophy out. My GF loves me for it.....honest!
Went to reno about this on Friday but no luck!! Apparently they are only covered under warrenty for 12 months as they are a consumable ''just like your brakes mate'' he told me. I said that I knew of atleast one other Trophy with the same problem and he said ''are you sure, there are only 500...
I have noticed recently that in the wet the brakes seem to ''fade'' quite easily. I know that the brakes on the Trophy are not the best in the world but these are not good. It happened today at a roundabout, and it was dry, I hit the brakes, got a little bite then nothing.
My discs were new...
French government could be a plan.
It is not just mine so surely if there is a few other cars with the same problem, they would/should have to change them.
Got it booked in today. Guy on the phone asked about the corrosion and said if the seals are intact they will basically send me packing. Would I be right not to accept this and really pester them to replace it?
If the try and fob me off with ''It's down to the weather'' then no chance will it be a bit of hammerite.
As it has been previously said in this thread, if that is the state of the corrosion at this moment in time, what is it going to be like in say, 2 years??
If you could post a pic...

Yeah, the weather is to blame on a considerable amount of rust on a damper that is just over 12 months old. Come on Renault Experts, you really expect me to believe that??
Re: mines the same but on the farside
I'm still at work mate (work away). Back in Scotland on the 23rd Nov and will get it into my local stealer then.
I will post up my results. The expert panel om www.renaultsport.co.uk did not fill me with confidence!!
