    If it wasnt red...

    I have to say that the red paint is one of the most unappealing things about Trophy ownership for me, i understand colour choice is a very personal thing - so some people will love the red paint - but for me, if the car was made available in another colour or two - i probably wouldnt choose red...

    Dealer in Romford

    My toy is coming due for service #1. Anyone have any particularly good (or bad) dealer ratings in the Romford/Hornchurch/Brentwood areas? Under mileage, so only really needs an oil change and a few bits of rattly trim/creaky stiff clutch pedal dealing with. Appreciate any feedback.

    06 Plate Trophy(s)

    I was under the impression that there was only one 06 plate Trophy in the country and that was number 500/500 which was held back to 1st March and given away in a prize draw (Autocar mag i believe) I have just been informed that this is not the only 06 plater around - just wondering if anyone...

    Sponsorship

    Just a thought, but as the site gets bigger the running costs go up and it might be an idea to try to get some well known Clio specialists to provide a bit of backing. In return they get a small banner somewhere with a link to their own website.

    Calling all V6 fans

    Righto, as some probably already know, there are 7 '06 registered V6 255's in the UK. Renault UK have decided to sell off one of them. Its an 06 plate obviously and its in an ultra rare Moonlight blue, which to my knowledge is number 001 of 001. In other words the only one in the country...

    Rattling seat - Names of dealers who have cured

    I know this has been covered before; my dealer admits there is a problem, but rather lamely claims not to know of a cure. Now some of you have had it fixed - might I please trouble you for the names of the dealers who did it, or even a Renault UK reference if there is such a thing. Thanks very much.

    Servicing Intervals?

    I just spotted this on the Renaultsport forum "panel of experts" bit: Eldorado asked: 182 service Am I right in saying that my 182 clio needs servicing either every 12k miles or every 12 months? If so, why was this changed from every 24 months? Isn't a service every year a little excessive...

    When's a car "run in"?

    Another dozzy question that wont concern most people, but i was thinking about g40steve's (hi) comment "have you run it in yet" and having only done 3k from new i don't consider it to be properly run in. When i bought it they advised that i should change the oil at 4k-to get rid of any crap in...
