cambelt

The time has come for me to part company with my Trophy, No 084. It has been great fun owning it and it's certainly an absorbing car to drive. However a shiny black 350z has seduced me into the world of rwd. :D Here are the details: 2005/05 29500 miles Full service history Just had Full...

My Trophy is currently at 34k miles and i'm looking to get the 36k service done aux belt and also i'm considering getting the cam belt done at the same time as the car will getting towards 5 years old. I got a quote of RS Murray & Sons today for the service, aux belt + cam belt £778 all in...

I have Trophy Number 162 advertised pretty much everywhere, so if anyone is looking for a very clean throughout Trophy, with up-specced 182 interior please give me a call. Former keeper and enthusiast Mike from here spent plenty on servicing, brakes and early cambelt. Plus new Speedlines and...

Hi, I'm the new owner of Trophy No.243 T9PHY which I collected today after some fraught negotaiting with Renault dealer who had it. I know it was owned by a member on here who I contacted before buying it, and I thank him for his information. It's my new daily runner to replace my late spec...

All, Sadly the time has come for me to move on from the Trophy. It's an unfortunate casualty in a series of events and one I wish I could save, however having this and the Vee is out of the question and it'll sorely be missed: It's had: 36,000 miles - and just had BOTH belts done -...

My Sachs have now been rebuilt at a cost of £583.20 (inc VAT) by BG Motorsport. A brilliant service, very quick turnaround and smiles all round. However, I am a little frustrated with Renault. Clearly, when deciding how to see off the 182 they saw 1000 or so Sachs suspension units and...

Hi I'm thinking about selling my T. Only bought her in May and was planning to use as a daily drive but...maybe I'm getting a bit old...ride is a bit too firm for my tastes on the roads near me. On the right roads when I'm in the mood I love the car, but most of the time that's not what I'm...

Just been onto Autotrader looking at T's (bored at work!) of the 3 Trophy's for sale that I could see all of them seemed to be really expensive, I got mine from one of the garages (redline racing) mine has 20k less mines at was about £300 cheaper, I bought mine in Feb this year...

i know the aux belt has to be changed on the 36k service, but is this the same as the timing belt? and where is the cheapest place to buy one from? thanks

Over the past few months i have noticed a squeaking sound coming from the driverside front damper on the T - it has also become very 'spongey' in comparison to passengerside! :( Is this likely to mean they needs refurbing? Any advice appreciated!

First off, apologies for not being an active forum memebr for quite some time... So I took my Trophy in for it's 36k mile service last week, and had a call from the garage to advise me that I had an oil leak from the cam cover seal and that it did not make any sense to change the aux belt as it...

Hi all, hope i'm posting in the right place. Picked up my trophy no. 108 on sunday, noticed in the past few days a whine or whiring noise which to me sounded like a pulley bearing...on searching this site someone mentioned the idler bearing, i presume on the aux belt, on their trophy was causing...

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/925416.htm Brought a tear to my eye seeing this, oh the memories. I can vouch for the first 25K miles, it was mint when it left me. Dynoed the full 180bhp too, before the new exhaust.

Greetings! I have found a Trophy for sale for £7485 with 48,911 miles on the clock. In your opinions what should I be paying for it and is that mileage too high? Also, should I expect the belts to be changed already? Cheers.

Hi all I posted this on Cliosport.net, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips or buying guides for the Trophy ? I am looking at buying one and dont want to buy a dud !! Dave

been a while since ive looked on this site, been over on v6clio.net a lot having changed back to the vee last august. Seems the prices havent come down that much since i sold mine, some advertised at 6495, 6950 and instead of people spamming their threads to say 'thats too expensive' they are...
