advice

Hi all, I have decided that I want to become the proud owner of an Orbisoud and have read a few posts on here and would like to know if anyone is selling one or if anyone has any advice on buying one! I am prepared to fit it myself as I have done before and exhausts aren't that hard to...

My Situation - I have a FF182 at the moment. Owe about 5k on the loan I took for it, I was originally planning on upgrading to a Tomato now that I can afford the extra finance. However, the dilemma is that work have just informed me that I am likely to be in a role worthy of a company car...

Guys.... I recently had the discs and pads changed on No 142. Have replaced front and back discs with genuine Renault discs (got these at a good price!) and decided on some 'uprated' pads. Went for some from K Tec - Ultimax brake pads. The brakes now work so much better (as you'd...

any tips for putting on tint film??? the instructions i got were so complicated! cheers

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has suggestions on selling my Trophy.. I spoke to allvehicles.co.uk and they offered me £8k. Also went into Renault DSG Morecambe and after being asked if it was a 172 or 182 three times and several references to it being called a cup(!) they offered me...

Time for the 24000 mile service. Saw a thread recently singing the praises of a Renault Dealer in surrey - was it Croydon? I can't find it now, can someone tell me which one it was, please? Or shallI take the car to Rentech? Guarantee still runs until December 2008 and I have to get the seat...

Yesterday morning i levered myself out of bed at 5.30 to make the 80 mile trip to Mark Fish to get; Goodridge Braided brake hoses, Pagid RS4-2 pads Brembo Max discs Combrake solid top mounts fitted Sachs dampers unpinned And camber (2 degrees) and alignment (10 minutes) dialed in...

A BIG thanks to Matt Not only did my order arrive quickly it also contained some unexpected but much appreciated extras (which I'm not going to disclose in case everyone starts whinging :D ) along with the his trade mark anglo bubbly bubble gum! It's not only myself as a fellow Trophy...

Hello everyone Im posting here on behalf of my brother who is currently searching for a Trophy. I owned a 172 cup a few years ago and used to spend a bit of time on cliosprt.net. Basically im just after any information that would be of use when buyindg the trophy i.e what to look out for and...

Whats the best polish for our trophys? I mean stuff we can put on, not stuff that has to be done by a pro, and lasts a while?

A few weeks ago when driving home I managed to do the impossible and spin the Trophy!! I was on a road with little grip and was unfortunate that it was very cold, damp and signs of somekind of oil type fluid on the road. As I spun the car I hit the kerb which forced the rear wheel under the car...

Hi, Im new so go easy on me please :) I'm 17, and have a 05 1.2 clio...Completely standard I have just had it valued at £5000 ish.. Now ive had a look around for a 182, with around 50k on the clock and there in the region of £6000, so I could afford one Confused.com gave me...

I know this has been visited many times but I'm looking for some new brake discs and pads. Not fussed about track use, just want a good road set. They've got to be good from cold, not mark my alloys, no noise and I don't want to change the brake hose etc. I'm keeping it simple. Any ideas, plus...

recently bought a 182, and thought about getting a new induction kit for it, just need some advice on what is the best one as im new to the whole car moding scene. thanks

Hi all, I have always upgraded brakes on my cars, as I think that it improves the car is so many ways for swift b road trips and track days and I have always been disappointed in the Trophy’s braking performance, but other people seem the be fairly pleased with them as a standard...

As i was signed off from work last week and now this week :shock: A couple of Thursdays ago i started getting chest pains and i had to lean forward in order for the pain to ease. Last Tuesday I had enough so I went to the doctors who plugged me into an ECG machine, this picked up that I had...

I went to Bedford aurodrome the other day and- In the wet morning the Clio was very tail happy and a whole lot of fun. :lol: As the track started to dry the car became amazing. As the front started to slide, a very slight lift would bring the back end gently into line with no real danger...

So i took the Trophy to get it checked to see what kind of condition the brakes were in as i was getting some travel on the pedal..... £46 later and the results were in, pads 60% worn on fronts and 70% worn on backs, ok so i've got another couple of thousand miles left. i asked what the...

my bulbs gone ive got the replacement but not sure how you go about replacing it, i cant get my hand down the back or anything or do you need to take the headlight out completly? :?:

Has anyone got any info on how the warrenty works with regard to parts? Just want to know what to say if they say, they cant give me a new driveshaft because it has a non standard air freshener or something lol

Sold my Subaru a while ago now and decided to look for a 182, got 6k together to find one. I have seen a few around that price. My question is should i just borrow some money and just buy a Trophy. Are Trophys a better drive than the 182..... Johnny

Anyone know of, or have experience of a good company to get small carpark dents removed please?

Hi there , my silver belts look more black than silver what do you use ? ive tried G101 NFG . Thanks Matt

Hi everyone, We’ve FINALLY launched the new Opie Oils website! There has been an incredible response with over 2000 visits on our first day (before we even announced it!). The best feature is the NEW ‘Find the Right Car / Bike Product’ tool which finds the right...

Mytyres.co.uk are by far the worst company i have ever had the misfortune to deal with! It took nearly 4 weeks for my order to arrive. They took money out of my account twice, then transferred completely the wrong ammount back and are now saying they have no records of them taking the money out...

Hey guys, Wonder if anyone can give me some pointers regarding booking snowboard hire/lessons/accomodation in the French Alps - who to book with? I was thinking about going to Val D'isere - I ski'd there before whilst I was at uni... Comments on alternative resorts - recommendations? Looking...

When Clarkson was putting the old CTR on the track against the new one. Wasn't too surprised that the old one trounced it, because when I had a quick look at one the other day, it looked a bit podgy. I wonder how the Trophy would compare in comparison. Would be fairly interesting to see as...

Am going to be buying an induction kit/anel filter and just wanted some opinions. Have had a normal pipercross cone filter in the past and the car felt like it lost power. Have also had a pipercross viper on my old pug 106gti which sounded very nice but didnt notice any power gains however...
