250 people contacted the show to report bonnet catch failures :shock:
saw the show my self and Reno are saying all the cars they have inspected have not had their bonnets secured properly. what do you think?

bonnets have been...
Not figuratively, but literally
With the new owner of 137 having a bit of a trek it reminded me of taking the train from Watford, into London and then up to Beverely outside Hull just to save a few hundred quid when getting mine. Think it came in around the 200 mile mark.
Surely some others...
Ideally I like to know a breakdown of the basic price with separate amounts for VAT and delivery + anything else (options?) if someone knows.

Afternoon all,
Just a quick one.... My Trophy had a fault (Engine light was on) After dealing with some Renault garages I was dreading booking in and going however after my visit this morning I can't praise them enough, Took it 8:30 this morning and I was back in the house drinking some...
Just got 2 brand new Michelin's from MyTyres.co.uk and popped down to my local RSR Tyres branch to get them fitted where they told me that I needed the locking wheel nuts and key to get the wheels off. Fair enough I thought, and after much searching I've realised the Trophy didn't come with them...
Iv just ordered 2 new PE2's from mytyres. just wondering if anyone else has? If so what was the service like? If not i will report as soon as i get mine.
Tried BlackCircles.com today for Michelin Exalto PE2 205/45 R16 V tyres.
They no longer list them on the website so you have to email for a quote.
They quoted around £115 fitted :!:
Not long ago they were quoting on the website @ approx £90 fitted.
Apparently they are now...
Looking for some advice regds a problem a fellow trophy owner is having .
It seems to be having problems starting and seems to be starter motor related but after the aa man wacked it a few times it still not working , its been at the dealers and they replaced the starter motor, it worked...
HELLO I'M NEW
What engine oil should i use for my clio williams?
Reg vardy are a waste of time, they are suppose to be the dealership for Renault yet don't have a clue about which engine oil to use for the sport version cars!
They don't even stock Elf or Total engine oil!
Ok, a hot topic which has been covered in different ways, but for those of you that have had a service or have one coming up in the not so distant future, i'm just trying to find out where you've had yours done/where you'll choose.
I'm at 11000 miles so mine isnt far away. I've heard good...

It was £121.23 with me providing the oil. What has everyone else paid? It has only just clocked up 10,000 miles but I have decided to get it done early.
Also, how many miles have you had from the front tyres before having to replace them?

My battery died on my Trophy and the RAC came out to get me started, however the car turns over but no fuel seems to be getting to the engine.
Any ideas/ suggestions?
Does the immobiliser need to be reset?
Any help would be much appreciated.
It's that time - have just passed 12k miles and it's due a service. Have booked it in with Masters of Shirley near Croydon - they reckon about 150 notes. Although I live in Brighton I'm going there because a) they're really nice people and b) I took 425 to the local Brighton dealer to get some...
Hi Guys,
I need a favour from a Trophy owner! I own a 182 with cup pack and have recently bought a set of Turini's direct from speedline, the very same as the Trophy comes standard with.
My problem is that i need the renault centre caps so i was wondering if one of you would be kind enough...

is it a bad thing that renault print the cars vin number on that small plate at the bottom of the windscreen?
can anyone obtain information on our cars (alarm / immob details) with this number along with the car's reg which they will get at the same time no doubt...
i was thinking about...
Woo Hoo, 10,400 miles of fun fun fun driving. Only a few small problems, (being hit up the arse and the dodgy sensor). But all in all i love the Trophy. Will be staying for a long while.
Should reach 12,000 by next week. Nice trip to France on Thursday. lol
Ooooh the time is rapidly approaching that i'm going to need to take the car in and have a service done.
Are you guys planning to take the car to Renault or another garage to have the service done.
I've heard that having the service done outside Renault will no longer invalidate the...
So tickling along this morning on the way to work, dashboard lights up all over the place! ABS warning light, Traction control light (the one that flashes normally) and the Service light all came on, in yellow however not red; but with no "stop" light illuminated.
After a visit from Renault...
As per the topic titled, my intermittent problem with my water/coolant temp gague have now developed into a constant issue, and now the car does not ever register the correct temp - which at least should make it easier for the technicians to identify the problem!
Will get the car booked in...

My first post! :D
Erm... in all the pics of Trophies I've seen, all the cars have a small black splitter under the front valance. Mine brand spanker (No. 236) dosen't!!! How can this be?
Did Renault stop fitting them part way through the build run :?:
P.S. Got a VR4 for sale if anyone...
does anyone have the cd rom from renault advertising the clio trophy? no's 1&2 are featured on the disc. it looks like they may have their dials in kph as the main numbers instead of mph. at one stage you get a clear shot of the mile-ometer on one of them, and it's well in the 4 figures. i...
