I plan on doing an arch detail on the trophy soon and plan on giving the Sach's a scrub up aswell
Is there anything I should be aware of before I set out? Also is there anything I can use to protect the seals etc from failing
I've recently purchased my trophy no.007, I know a couple of its previous owners have been on here and thats great news
When I bought the car the paint was horrific, no scratches but heavy swirling so I spent around 10-14hours getting the paint to a standard I'm happy with
I was showing it on...
Hi Guys,
I've used various products over the years but what do you find is best for cleaning your alloys?
Like my old Cup, i find the wheels on the Trophy very fiddley to clean between the spokes but am reluctant to spray with some of the chemicals i've used on regular alloys in case it takes...
Hello All,
Its been a while since I have posted.
Im looking to get back into a Trophy hence the sale of my Golf which was bought for track day fun and commuting.
Its a very very clean 1987 8v Golf GTI so pre elec windows, central locking, power steering so very light. I have modded it and...
hi folks ive been thinking tonight of selling my clio trophy, i purchased the car from a bristol dealership about 4 months ago and with me and the other half moving in together in the next few months we are going to be needing every penny we got. my main traveling in this car has been to the gym...
Okay, picked up Trophy 207 a couple of weeks back and today the quest began to make it like new! I'm aiming for a 100% factory-fresh look and feel and after not really getting anything much done in the past couple of weeks, progress is finally being made! Now, when I collected it, it was clear...

Evening, my dampers were serviced and re-gased in June last year on 22,000 miles. I have now done 28,000.
Recently i have been noticing that when i go over speed bumps or any tiny pot-hole I am getting a knocking sound when the suspension compresses on the left hand side front.
I have just had...

After a dissapointing day :( I got on the search again - I have since found this one - However what seats are these in the car?
Trophy seats???? I cant tell looks very similar.

ive owned no#51 for just over 2 years and loved it, best car ive ever had in fact. its was when i was at silverstone for the british grand prix and saw this clio 200 albi blue with cup chassis and the recaro seats i went wow. in the flesh it does look lovely pics dont do it justice. so looked on...
Spotted a Trophy at T in the park! southside car park. woman and man sat outside it. looked clean wanted to go over and say hi but was exhausted from the huge walk haha :) how was ur weekend at TITP?
Cammy
Just wondering how people have mounted the lap belts for the harnesses in your Trophy's?
Its easy to simply drill a hole in the Recaro mounts (or even the floor), but id rather not do that for resale purposes ...
I have OMP 4 point clip in ones (with eye bolts) if that helps.
Cheers

Hey folks...need sum advice i wanna take me badges off on the boot n door also the clio and renault on the boot..trophy gettin a proper good clean this year...any help on how to take them off
A while ago when we had all the serious downpour in cumbria My T leaked in through the boot into the drivers foot well - out came the interior to give it a full drying. Since then it has been fine until..... I was on the way back for surrey the other week and it rained on the way home.

Sorry guys, but I've just got a Trophy and it seems to want to cut out all the time.
Also takes a tad long to start up in the morning, turns over a couple of seconds longer than I'd think normal.
Even once warmed up after a long drive, put it in reverse and start to move back and it'll just...
An interesting tyre review in this month's EVO (as well as a 20th birthday special on the Clio sports, with the Williams preferred).
The tyre review caught my eye because it featured (an evolution of) a tyre which a few years ago highlighted to me the importance of tyres and the effect they can...

After owning many Fords and a S1 Elise (briefly), I sold Ford Racing Puma #192 last October to fund a house purchase and I have been driving a standard 1.7 Puma since then. I've always fancied a Trophy, so thought it was about time I bit the bullet and bought one! I've had it nearly three weeks...
Hey guys,
The Sachs are coming off '380' later as they're booked in with Ben on the 8th. I've noticed a lot of people saying that they've had the struts un-pinned to allow adjustment to the damping. I've had a quote of £25.00 each + vat, is it worth me getting this done while they're away?
....................took the back seat out and discovered lots of muck under it and also my daughters missing DS game!
Cleaned seats in the back and whilst doing this I have spent the evening scrubbing the seatbelts, well worth a job IMO!
Hi Guys,

Hi everyone, i have recently been getting a squeeking sound from what i think is the passenger top mount / all the way down to the wheel ( i cannot pin point where the noise is).
It happens when its dry as when its raining the noise goes away so all i can presume is that something needs...
