Just picked up the latest copy of Performance Car Magazine. It seems they've done an article on "The Finest B-Roads in England" using a Trophy - 7 pages in total with some great shots of the car. Well worth buying a copy.
Cheers,

Hello ! 8)
Thought I would start a thread for all those who are about to get their Trophy's Remapped by Paul at RS Tuning so we can all post our comments, views, results etc...
Last year (8/10/08) I had my Trophy put on the RR at RS Tuning. The car was standard and made 162.3 BHP and 140...
Okay,
So me and some friends were fitting the Maxogen induction kit and had to stop part way through as it was getting a bit dark and we need a smaller socket tool which we didn't have.
The problem I have is the bonnet refuses to now open after it was closed. I let it shut as normal then...
Well after selling my Trophy i realised that finding a replacement for it wasn't going to be easy, after considering many many different cars i decided to stick with another hatch and decided to stick with Renault as i really do like how they drive, very soon i found this...........
Only had...
Hi there, Big problems... I have just spent a couple of hours with my friend at his garage trying to line up this exhaust. everything is fine until we go to fit the last (right hand side) back box which the pushes everything of to the left almost touching the bumper!
He does tune cars for a...
When I picked up my trophy the exhaust mounts were knackered and as a consequence the exhaust kept basing into the bumper. This seemed to smash the trim off =D> So the exhaust mounts were replaced (no smashing now) and I popped down to Renault Manchester to get a new trim piece....... (few £ I...
Bit of a random one this, but I fancied having a moan about the appalling quality of a lot of the driving on our roads. Sometimes it's so bad it actually scares me.
I think my biggest pet hate, or one of them at least, is people who randomly brake for no reason. Not necessarily heavy braking...
I had to laugh....
I've been talking to a guy in the local for the best part of a month about cars - he's after a new one, current steed is a Corsa SXI and he's gunning for a Corsa VXR, after being ribbed for the past month about needing fluorescent lights to go with it etc he finally laid me...
Decided to test the water with my car as I've been thinking about buying an M3 as a track car. Not really using the Trophy as much as I liked as I work from home and it has only done one track day and one ring trip in my possession.
Not really desperate to sell so will see if I get any bites...

Looking for one or both of the Headlamp Washer Covers for the 182 Trophy or 172 Cup.
They are both located on the front bumper.
These are little plastic pieces that cover the hole for where the headlamp washers would be on other RS Clio models.
Lost one of mine at Bedford Autodrome on Friday...
I'm looking for interest on a potential second batch of these exhausts. It's the best fitted exhaust available for the 182 and sounds ace. Weighs around 6kg less than standard system. There are a few vids on you tube if you have a search.

Hi folks, thought id share my nightmare day, driving down the road with the mrs coming back from shopping when a very nice lady decided to cut across me and drive in to the front wing and bumper. So gota get new wing, bumper and alloy wheel. Got all her details and rang my insurance gave the...
Yesterday my trophy developed this dodgy noise on the way back home from work, it was a pop followed by a scraping/cracking noise of metal on metal.
I have checked the rear suspension over pretty thoroughly, and can't find any problems!
The only things that i haven't eliminated are the dampers...
=D> ....i think people are finally starting to realise trophy's are amazing cars and people can't keep selling them for peanuts!!...mine was £9k last september there is no way on earth i would let it go for under £7k especially as it took me over 8 months to source such a minter (093)
I bought a used Trophy recently that had been fitted with KW V2 coilovers for track use.
I'm thinking of switching back to the OE sachs dampers.
The sachs were taken off at around 40k miles - should I get them serviced before I re-fit them?
Is there any way to tell if they need doing while...
Just been reading on this http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default ... ryId=19541 about the possible production of the RS3, would imagine it would be a awsome car.
My issue i saw a awsome looking Audi A3 shape in my local Sainsburys about 1 week ago, from a distance it looked like a S3 but when i...
Hey,
does anyone know the name of the manager/director of Renault UK, gotta send a letter to him with reference to a complaint about a local Renault garage which decided to take my car on a jolly when i told them they couldn't!!!!
i know his name has been mentioned on here before but cant find...
Passengers side wing for a 1.2 16v in black and i maybe after a bumper in black to depends on how bad mine is as i may get away with keeping it on or i maybe intertesed in a 182 kit if the price is decent if there can fit on a 1.2 16v
cheers
Morning all!
Picked up my Trophy beginning of Feb, and ive just started noticing oil spots on my drive ( my mother wasnt impressed ) im no mechanic but it looks like its from the rear suspension on the passenger side, its dripping from the bottom, not sure if theres a seal broken somewhere or...
Hi all,
I don't post much on here, but I thought there would be a higher number of Orbisoud exhaust owners here than on CS. I'm after a bit of feedback on the exhaust systems. I've had mine on the car for quite a few months and considering the price of the system I've got to admit I was...
Its my birthday next month and im treating myself to a new exhaust (any excuse) but I cant decide which one to go for, Yozzasport or RS192?
Personally I love the sound of the Yozza but dont know whether ill be able to put up with the immense noise that it makes. Whichever one I buy will be a...
