    Trophy #407 for sale (Stockport)

    On request from a few potential buyers I have some videos showing the car starting from cold and a walk around showing the condition and appearance of the car. I bought the car over 200 miles from home and drove it back, videos should help justify the trip for any interested parties :-) Ant

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Yes the Cooksports did lower the car a bit, aesthetically a bit better than on the original springs though it's more level than the nose-down stance of the original set-up. I can't say I've noticed any deterioration in the ride, but body roll has been reduced and the car corners flatter. I...

    OEM Trophy Springs

    It'd be unwise to mix and match front and rear springs as they are tuned to balance the car front and rear. If original rears are not available (new or used) then the only choice is to buy a full set. Eibach Sportlines are one alternative you've not mentioned and the cost of a full set is...

    Trophy #407 for sale (Stockport)

    I am selling my Clio 182 Trophy due to lack of use and with a 2ndchild on the way, I expect even fewer occasions to go out and drive for pure pleasure. I bought this from the original owner, through an advert on this forum, so I am the 2nd owner having collected it from Glasgow in April 2016...

    Mine needed handbrake cables and think they came to around £30ish from memory. Ant

    Trophy appreciation

    I've had a few comments, also notably from Tesco staff (is that a Trophy, never seen a 182 with recaros in it before). Also since my brother runs a garage one of his friends has a 172 and he mentioned I had a Trophy. My brother couldn't quite get over the reaction and enthusiasm he had for the...

    1 owner 57k FS on FB site

    It seems a fine balance - I've had my "1 previous owner from new" Trophy for about 10 months and had to fork out quite a bit to put mechanical things right despite a full service history with no expense spared (£400+ to repair the original exhaust paid by the original owner!). All proper...

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Update...so the new (correct) OEM springs arrived and were fitted. Below is what came off the car - 2 mis-matched front springs, 1 of which was broken. I guess one is a Cup spring and the other a standard Renaultsport? Anyway, pleased to have the proper ones on now. Fitted some Sachs...

    String of Fault Codes :-(

    I've done a search, but not been able to find much information. My car is in limp mode, due to active faults no doubt, which limits it to 3000rpm and gives an idle anywhere from 2-2500rpm. From what I've read some of these faults can be due to poor wiring connections though someone may also...

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Thanks MarcR for answering my question, good to know I ordered the right parts in the end despite 3 dealers advising otherwise! It's hard to determine replacement parts when you don't have the originals. But good to know the rear springs, should anyone ever need them, should be much easier to...

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Update - I've ordered 2 coil springs with the part no. I found on here despite Renault dealers (tried a few!) insisting that the springs are the same as the Cup model (or the Extreme version which seems to be the Renault internal designation). There were only 3 springs in the UK when I...

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Hello, new owner (407) here with a headache... I have a cracked front spring, these things happen. But I'm having right hassle ordering a new one or a pair. The car has black springs on it, marked with blue and yellow paint, but I've been led to believe the standard Trophy front springs are...
