Planning on refurbing my dampers myself and need to keep mobile! Just wondering if anyone has fitted a pair of 172 cup struts to their trophy?? Not 100% sure if its only 182 cup struts that fit. cheers, glenowl

Unfortunately, the time has come where I can't put this off any longer, it is with great regret that I am offering my Trophy up for sale. I need a 5 door car, as running my 16 month old daughter around in the back is just not practical, and with a long term back injury, I find it painful...

Left work at usual time yesterday and the Trophy just did not seem 'right' to drive. Have checked dampers and all seem ok - rear replaced within the last 3 months. MOT also passed early part of July with no advisories so imagine they would have spotted any major 'wear'. Car seems very light...

Anyone know this car This is my second option http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2832783.htm

Lol I know this is a longshot My dampers have been away for refurb for over 3 weeks now and I get a different excuse everyday. I am doing a trackday at donnington this Monday 25Th July. I need to borrow some dampers for the day :D Obviously would pay if they were damaged and happy to pay...

Hi, I have owned a Cup packed 182 for over 4 years now, determined to keep it as long as possible. Always kind of wished for the Trophy set up so I have just invested in a full set of Trophy dampers. I was wondering what you guys could recommend to get the set up correct. Lots of advice already...

Reluctantly, I'm having to sell my 182 Trophy to cater for two little ones and the baggage train that goes with them! Few basics: Just over 58k miles, the car is off the road so this won't change. 2 Previous Owners Full documented Service History with Receipts MOT til December 31st HPI...

I know Renault seem to get bad reviews amongst people regarding the reliability but during my ownership I have found the Trophy really reliable. I've owned it 3 years and 4 months and had the following issues... Failed Coolant Termperature Sensor Failed Damper Seal Failed CV Boot Clip Thats...

... fingers crossed :|

Hi chaps, wonder if anyone can help with my issue. I've been doing quite some work to my T the last month: Front sachs refurb, fitted Ktec solid top mounts, Poly bushes fitted to lower wishbones and anti roll bar, new track rod ends, lower balljoints, koni adjustable rear dampers, mark fish...

The time has sadly come to part ways with my loyal trophy so if you are after a 1st class condition example look no further,I purchased the car In feb 2010 from steve at all vehicles there has been a lot of work done on the car to keep it up to condition so here we go deep breath! Reg t22phy...

Trophy was handling like a bag of crap, noticed a bouncy damper so had it rebuilt at BG a few weeks ago. Also the exalto's on the front had come to their usable end so replaced them with the Pilot Sport 3's. Anyway, Trophy's feeling a bit weird in some corners, i cant really describe it, its...

It may just be me being worried or the road angle or something, but i seem to feel my front n/s bounces more than the o/s on flat full road width speed bumps where i can feel both rebound at the same time more or less, and there is a little knocking noise every now and then, i know the knocking...

I'm based in Berkshire and I want to upgrade from 2 to 3 stars so I'm after some guidance on buying a used Trophy. When you bought your used Trophy did you get a professional independent inspection carried out? If so, who did you use & would you rate their service? If not, what did you check...

I'm after a set of either standard Trophy dampers or Konis. Cash waiting. Cheers, Rhodri

From today's online Daily Telegraph: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/pic ... ml?image=3 The link to the piece on the home page uses the photo of the Trophy with Alonso to tempt you in to read it. Does that mean the writer thinks the Trophy is the best I wonder? Or is it just a better photo...

I am putting my much loved clio up for sale as i've just been given a company car so need to sell mine, here's a link to pistonheads http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2897857.htm

I've been trauling through suspension threads for the last hour and can't find an answer. Where does everyone buy them from? And, What is 'revalving'? Is it just matching the damping settings to OE spec or is it something specialist that the likes of MF would do? Thanks

Sadly I'm in the position where I have to sell a car I never wished to sell: my Trophy is for sale. :( Details via PistonHeads below: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2872867.htm

As promised i have a few photos of before and after of the dampers once shot blasted and sprayed. If anyone else is thinking of doing this then from my own experiences i would suggest you look into building up the lost material once the rust and corrosion has been removed, the guy who done mine...

Righto, my front sachs started leaking so i've removed them from the car, sent them off to BG to be stripped, they've sent them back to me to be blasted and coated then i'm sending them back for refitting. While that's being done i'm working on the rest of the susp. Removed the arch liners and...

Hi all, I've recently had the front and rear dampers replaced/rebuilt as well as the top mounts. Its going back in the shop tomorrow to have the ball joints replaced as well ready for a full geo alignment on saturday. The guy at the geo place mentioned the track rod ends can sometimes be a...

Hi all, I apologise if this is the wrong section however couldn't see another appropriate forum! Was advised to join here from someone on Cliosport, I'm looking to purchase a Trophy in the next few months and found one locally to me however it seems a bit too cheap! -...

Just had the front dampers back from BG motorsports, and replaced the rear dampers and top mounts at the same time. Imagine my surprise to hear creaking still coming from the front suspension somewhere [-X I've done some digging around on here and people suggest replacing the ball joints at...

As per title? I honestly can't see myself selling the little bugger. Took it for a blast on some newly discovered B roads recently and was still absolutley gobsmacked at how bloody good it is. :D I bought a Boxster S six months ago and even though it's a brilliant car, unless you're a...

Can anyone tell me the weight of two sachs dampers regarding postage to BG?? I'm taking mine off on sunday and think it'll be too late to book a parcel force collection for Monday to get them to arrive Tuesday. So if someone can be kind enough, if they remember! the weight of their parcel, i can...

Hi to who ever that was in the Trophy behind me who beeped. I had spent Sunday-Monday at Silverstone and not even seen another Clio Sport let alone a T then all of a sudden i see you in my rear view mirror and another 182 inferno as im coming off the slip road just as im about to head back home...
