=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)
Had the trophy at Donington today, weather held out and the day went without too many problems, total result for me is the need for a new power steering hose and pump (long story)
Had a problem one session with loose wheel nuts (almost fell off :oops: )
And another session the one the video is...
Was just on my way to work the other day and the SERV and Traction control light came on?? also something esle was lite up but was more focused on the SERV lite. I wasn't driving fast, once I pulled up into work turned the car off - I turned it back on again and the light was out?! :? any...
Having been snowed in two years running, I'm thinking my trophy has a profound disslike to snow. Ok, I know it is not designed for it. I love my Trophy, but this gets me down every year. My dad has a VW Passat oil burner (No I say!) and has no problems what so ever. So people, what cars are good...
Scary half hour for me and 427 earlier!
My road is one car wide and generally crap, went to see a mate, or tried to! Got to a very steep hill(going down) with some sharp corners and huge banks each side, a few people have lost control and rolled there! Anyway going very slow, abs kicks in and...
Here are some photos from Rebel's first outing of 2009 - a run around the Brecon area, South Wales (mixed cars/marques).
Despite the poor conditions of late we were blessed with pretty good weather given the time of year. For the majority of the run it was quite pleasant (if a little wet in...
I know this has been asked a million times but does anyone have the Trophy workshop manual???
I have looked at all the other ones like 182 and 172cup but there must have been one made for the Trophy also?
:oops:
Fed up of my broken trophy suspension, i'll need to get some temporary suspension to use while the sachs are up being refurbed at the front, and i'll have to shell out £200-300 for some koni or sachs rear dampers.
Then i think, why not just chuck some bilstein or H&R coilovers on...
To all those who are looking for a Trophy or have recently purchased one (there seem to be many at present!). What's led you to your purchase?.. Wondering if something specific has sparked interest, like a magazine article or suchlike?
New to the forum and the Trophy – just bought 415. I am having trouble sourcing two brand new Pilot Exalto PE2s locally to me here in west Kent. Any idea where I can find them for around £110 each?
My friend owns a Mondeo ST, he was supposed to be gettin pick up by his lass in it, who is also a very good friend.
So she doenst turn up? He finds out there has been a crash!
So as it goes she is on a bit of road which i hate, its a 60mph, lots of log sweeping bends.
I went to see her today...
Time to replace front wipers, have seen those wider wipers in some pics. just wondering whats the feed back from them n where do i get them? Think they look good a bit different just
Popped to the newsagents yesterday morning.
As I was about to pull away a mate of mine's wife walks around the corner with their dog. I wind the window down to say hello,the dog recognises me,breaks into a sprint (it's a greyhound, so pretty fast) then tries to jump through the window, misses...
Hi all!
If your like me and enjoy reading car magazines such as Evo, Autocar etc etc. Then you'll see that the white R26R has been reviewed by every magazine under the Sun this month (including The Sun!!).
So is it the new Trophy? Is it special enough? And will there soon be an R26R website...
Hi guys.
Having a nightmare with the car lately. When im travelling 60+ MPH the car feels like its not planted and changing lanes on the M-way or dualcarrage way is becoming very scary. When traveling at speed and steering lightly (ie changing lanes) everything feels loose and the car seems to...
Alreet guys hows it going?
Picked trophy #17 up last weekend and so far so good! Love it if i'm being honest. Its got Xaltos on the back but some rather dodgy unknowns on the front that are sketchy at best. Was wondering what other people are running and what tyres people might recommend...
Dudes, I am fuming.
My Trophy went in for its third (i.e. north of £500) service a month ago at AKS Renault in Yeovil.
Today it went for its first MOT at my trusted independent garage, local to work, who service my van fleet.
It failed, as the rear pads are worn down to almost nothing, and...

Has anyone had there 48K service done lately??

Have been quoted £188.91, the list price for the service is apparently £253.79.
The price of tyres seems to have increased lately, best I can find is £115 a corner...
Just let my mate drive the trophy tonight, he drives a Corolla TSport which i have drove and is just as quick as the Trophy, actually when i was driving his TSport i had a tussle with a 197 and i was pulling towards it at the top of the revs in 2nd and 3rd gear. Thsi doesnt happen with the...
Actually happened last weekend, but only just got around to downloading the pics.
Bloke I know has just bought this:
996 GT3. 380Bhp 0-60 4.8 Ride is as solid as the Trophy.
Doesn't feel as fast as it is which I suppose is a sign of how good it is. Sit really close to the...
