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...
Got to be honest, been lurking quite a lot on here and you all seem a good bunch of lads.
Anyway, here's some info on my car, I'll list the current spec in the first post and then I'll follow up how I've changed her since buying her last August. She's for sale by the way, and I may be...
lots of people are running 15's with semi slick's i.e. R888's, but anyone tried full slicks yet?
just something i have been thinking about today after a trackday yesterday!
if so, where can you buy slicks? looked on google with not much luck!
Having had a plethora of hot hatches (and having the Trophy for 1 week) I can honestly say that i don't think that you could do much better than a trophy for everyday use. I traded in my Elise for this car and I believe its quicker!
More than anything you get the feeling from the driving...
Here it is, had lots of people asking me across different forums asking if I had bought the new car yet so it now pleases me to officially announce my new purchase!
Just a few pics taken tonight after a day at Rentech...
Mods: H&R Coilovers, Carbon splitter, Prospeed Exhaust...
Went to see Yozza this morning for some new brakes......not really tested them yet but they did a good job. 8)
So when I got home I thought i'd make my dampers adjustable. Tried to remove the grub screw from the drivers side and it would not budge. Even after plenty of easing fluid and a...
Just putting this up for a mate.. if you are interested contact him direct through his site, or PM me and i'll pass on his details. A lot of work has been put into the car - as the text says it was rebuilt from a rolling shell. He's after £5500 - no offers.

I'm drowning in stupidity over there. Someone talk some sense into those people who think the Trophy would corner better if it didn't cock a rear wheel under hard braking and cornering. Include some pictures of FWD race cars doing the...
2003 '53 GT Monte Carlo Blue
just under 60k miles
2 years extended warranty to go (ish, have to check)
I'll probably put 4 new tyres on shortly, 6 months tax and a new mot by the end of the month.
Hard top + original stand and honda cover.
It had all suspension bushes changed just before...
out of interest, how does the trophy suspension compare with a clio 182 on aftermarket coilovers say H&R's.
which is likely to perform better.
If nobody knows then I will let you know what the answer is because me and some friends are doing a trackday...obviously my trophy, a 172 cup on...
why are the some number plates on the trophy drivers seat numbered out of 50
i've seen one that says 49 / 50
the dealer said the first 50 are all like this...is he right?
see picture if i can work out how to do it

Hello, My name is James, I have a Subaru Impreza WRX STi-8, with various modifications, which have upped the power to 487bhp :) However, although this has made the car bonkers fast (sub 4 to 60:)) this has made the car rather expensive to run, and its becoming a bit much as a daily driver. My...
hi need some help i want to lower my trophy but dont no wat to go for i only want springs but i dont want to ruin the handling of the car. any help will be apreciated
Some guys from France over on Cliosport have been looking at retrofitting the Sachs dampers to their 172's and 182's.
Interestingly, one guy has phoned Renaultsport in Dieppe and was told the following:
182 to Trophy upgrade kit will be available soon.
Part no. 60 00 07 890, Price...
Test-driving the £12995 trophy out of Renault in Coulsdon this Friday and boy am I going to wring it's neck out!
I figure I'm going to head South towards Merstham on the A23 then return via the country roads through Chipstead that run parallel to the A23 to ensure that my passenger will...
HI

i recently changed the suspenion on my car due to the old one collapsing on that back.
i currently have koni suspension on, and its getting on me nerves a bit bumpy, not to bad when on soft but the roads round here are a nightmare
would trophy suspension fit on...
Hi, first of all I just want to introduce myself to you. May name is Max, I am from germany
and I own a 172 Mk1 first registered in March 2000. I have had this car for six years now and she still is in good condition with her 52 thousand miles or 82 thousand kilometers on the clock. She...
When she went off to be rebuilt / stored last year, i didn't do the bonnet properly, and this happened.
She has had a new engine; complete re-fresh from the bearings up and load of other new toys that we will be showing off over the year.
New Bonnet, Windscreen, Bonnet Pins and Braking...
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...
In preparation for trackday season, I took my Trophy to get the tracking done today, which is all good, but their 4 wheel laser alignment system showed that I have -1.01 degrees of camber on the left front, and -0.24 on the right :?
I was told that this was not a great amount to be out, but...
:twisted:
After having my trophy for only a week i feel a letter of complaint coming on!! not to the dealership but to renault themselves
Another member off here told me of a few things to check on the car before i paid for it, well the front splitter was missin so had to rebook it in to...

Thought I'd spend some cash on it and invested in some coilovers and some 18's from the megane.
Here she is:
Hope you like
LOL - OK OK it's a photoshop courtesy of Mr Freebone :)
I love it
Unfortunatley I brought my 182 a little to early back in March so wont be getting a Trophy. Really hoping the Sachs suspension kit does get released that is being talked about over on Renault Sport forum, if so hopefully I will get it for my Cup Packed Black Gold car.
