Hi guys. I'm contemplating some decent coilovers for my RS Twingo but have a question or two... The Twingo is based on the Mk2 Clio platform, with the rear beam axle having the usual clio style seperate springs and dampers. Front suspension is set to similar angles as the Trophy and shares...

Hi guys I have got some Eibach Sportlines on mine but it seems more people are changing the springs on the Trophy. Anyone got any good recommendations? .. I have even heard the soft dare i say Apex have even had good reviews on the Trophy dampers. Cheers for spring or damper related info...

Basically what i was wondering is how many people use their Trophy for what it was primarily designed for?, and im not necessarily talking about track days but also just goin out for a pointless drive or a bit of a blast on your favourite stretch of road. As daft as it sounds i sometimes feel a...

I have a problem with it. When I go round a corner it feels quite light and tends to understeer and feel light at the front end. Furthermore if I push even slightly more the back end comes round. At first I thought I had it wrong but as daft as it sounds I went out to see if I did and provoke...

This seat is in pretty much mint condition, I'm selling it due to a complete change of plans. It comes with Recaro sidemounts and a set of runners, the base mount shown in the picture is not avaliable. I originally purchased this seat from Capital Seating, who are the official Recaro importers...

ive found some pics of the new clio sport 200 which hence the name gives you 3 bhp more than standard and looks well............ugly as hell!, thats my opinion. found out that the cup version will be 36kg lighter than the normal version too and the gearing for the first 3 gears is shortend again...

Now I have my Trophy, which I chose because it would be a fast car on track without modification, I realise, that modifying cars is just too much fun to go without, so I will be modifying the Trophy :) Just for a bit of fun, and maybe to make the fun last, and perhaps to help others...

Just bought Trophy No 237 from Allvehicles. Pick it up on Tuesday. Traded in my Elise 111r and have to say i can't wait to get my mitts on the Trophy! Car was absolutely immaculate and Steve was really helpful and easy to get on with. No doubt i'll be on here a bit from now on! Karl.

Has anyone noticed the shock on other motorists faces when you overtake? Perhaps when on an A road? On my regular two weekly drive to see the girlfriend in Edinburgh via the A68 I ve noticed that other motorists are not willing to overtake. In fact they would prefer to be stuck doing 40 in a...

I thought i'd ask on here as ClioSport was going to give me all sorts of silly answers. Right the 182 is due her annual service end of Sept, done no where near the mileage, but want things kept up to date & make sure everything is as it should be. The car will go to Mike @ RenTech after...

Right well i havnt even bought a clio trophy but judging from the reviews on the morego 202, i plan to do this mod to my Trophy. Opinions please as i know it is a limited edition model. Would it affect resale in a bad way? Also does it need mroe power? Thanks Greg

Gave them both a clean and the CF bonnet has been removed from the Liquid now... as well as removing the Apex springs and fitting some Sportlines :D and a hint of what a white 182 might look like :wink:

Just a thought but i was wondering if it was possible to replace the manual set up in the Trophy with the digital climate control from the full fat 182? I'm thinking its not going to be as simple as swapping the panels and hooking up the wiring - but you never know. I have no knowledge of...

Evo descrivbe the Trophy as 'the most fun you can have on 3 wheels' but my question is how do you get it on 3 wheels? Is it something that you should be able to do everyday or do you have to really push the car so much that you're very unlikely to achieve it safely on the road? Can you...

Driving along the A264 on Saturday morning from Tunbridge Wells to East Grinstead with vast amounts of surface water No. 99 was quite 'floaty' at times! :D It was quite surreal actually, water was cascading down the road and combined with all the leaves the wind had brought down over night...

Hello Clio owners, just found out about your site and it looks really good. I have a black 172 ph2, it has been lowered 40mm on apex springs, got a pipercross air filter( looking for new one might have BMC carbon ), DTM mirrors and upgraded speakers all roung. Any advise on other things to do...

My mate saw ya at apex corner and took a pic of ya motor looks good with the plate mate

Did you get stopped today near apex corner roundabout lol my mate took a pic of your car and texted it to me....

Will start to flake off, what ya reckon?

Whats everyones opinions on the different lowering springs available for the 182 with cup packs? Dont want something thats going to be scrapeing the ground or give too harsh a ride. Just want the car to sit a bit lower. Always had Eibach's before and notice they do two kits for the 182. Is...

Just how fast can you corner with these things? I think i'm having to re-learn my entry speeds into corners. I entered a roundabout today with no drop in my approach speed and flung it out the same road I came in with nothing more than a bit of squeaking from the tyres. It really is quite...

This a bit a long post, apologies but hopefully of interest to more than just me :) So I read all of http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic ... 74&start=0 very interesting, noting the follwing I am considering going for the 12mm bolts (-2 deg, 0.00 toe-out) but am now thinking about...

Just had my car mapped yesterday :D :D

Have any of you had any run in's with civic type r's? had a play with one last weekend and whilst i admit he was pulling away slowly in a straight line when it came to roundabouts his ass was severly handed to him on a plate! then :D next day i had a lad in a new golf gti who wanted some, i...

Nik - please tell me you bought this photo from the last Bedford day... I've never seen a wheel so high up in the air before!!!!

Anyone have experience with fk coilovers? Ive seen these http://2modified.com/clio-highsport-coi ... 10236.html And they look like a great price. The handling in the next area on my cup i wanna attack as the apex springs on at the mo are rubbish! Any suggestion would be greatly accepted...
