Thanks to all the people who make this forum the friendly & informative forum that it is and i'll be on the lookout for any tomatoes out there :D
I used this (but in black) :-
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RED-BRAKE-CALIPER ... 240%3A1318
From what I could tell the original colour was a silver plated finish of some kind which had all but peeled off.
Nothing like putting my foot in it - sorry big S :oops: . Should add 'from what I saw from the pics of yours' plus it was bloomin awful weather they were hooning them round in.
Would much rather have the GTT than the Twingo any day for street cred RS or not ! :lol:
Good find - I don't have sound on my PC at work so will have a listen later to see which came out on top.
Didn't realise the Megy was a two seater with the role cage in the back.
Done mine in black heat resistant caliper paint after the original silver coating started to flake off and show signs of surface corrosion. Very subtle with the wheels on. Of course the same can't be said of the Pagids ........

Real good find Hoolio - I should think its a real head turner from Renault fans !!.
I remember riding as a passenger in one which must be 15 years ago and I was terrified partly due to how low to the ground you are - great fun :D
I think brand new ones are effected to some extent due to the gas pressure changing due to temperature - it does get worse as the struts age though due to leakage.
Just came back to the car after watching the new bond film (slightly disappointed after all the hype and rave reviews) and behind me was a blue 172 (cup I think) with the Trophy 2 cars to the right.
Must be local to go to that cinema ???.
Thanks for that - might get mine up on ramps at the w/e.
Yes there is a recall on the bonnet catches on all Mk2 clios I believe, they changed mine when I took it for an MOT. Didn't have a letter from DVLA though which I think is how recalls usually work.
Too right !
Well I have to give the door a heck of a tug as it was frozen to the seals and then when I put something in the boot the hatchback swollowed me up after the gas struts decided not to work due to the temperature effecting the viscosity of the oil I guess.
Take it easy out there all.
Re: 55 reg Trophy For Sale!!
Paid nearly 10k for mine 6 months back with 12k miles so that's offered at an excellent price ....... bloomin credit crunch !!
Must admit that I don't look at the RS site, just this one and occasionally C/S.net if I have any parts to buy or sell.
If you could give me a shout when the next one is being organised that would be great :D Will also look out for you in Nunny.
The white looks trick - good job !! :D .
Saw an Astra VXR Nurburgring edition a few weeks back - that looked good too but wouldn't like to clean the white mulit-spoke wheels.
We should do a local meet some time although my missus takes the rip out of me and my 'fondness' to my car and use of this site bad enough already :lol:
