Been doing sections at a time over the last 3 weeks, today I did the rear arches as the previous owner I think lived in about 3 metres of mud As for the other pics, I know it's anal, but it's my passion, and I wasnt quite finished as there were some rather nasty clouds looming lol!
Before...
i've never clayed a car before and wasn't confident enough to try it for the first time on the Trophy. also i wanted the paintwork correcting - especially on the bonnet. so i decided to get it done professionally.
after looking around on the web i selected Gary Funnell from the aptly named...
After a week of ownership I thought she deserved some tlc, 9 hours late (gold service at www.shine-detailing.co.uk) here are the results, spent 2 hours the next evening detailing the wheels and inside the arches, let me know what you think :) Cheers :)
Trophy 474 - i'm the second owner of this car which now has 16000 miles on it. Serviced recently and has also recently been PC'd which has brought the paintwork up as new - http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3648 contains the info and pictures of the work carried out.

Hi,
I currently own a 55 plate Renaultsport Megane 225 Cup. Although this is a great car l've a hankering after something smaller, namely a Clio Trophy. Based on this my Megane is for sale or p/x for a mint Clio Trophy.
Its a 55 plate 225 Cup (Genuine Cup) which is metallic blue, its also...
Ok, this may sound a bit random or stupid. But how does everyone dry their cars after a wash and what products do they use to do it.
I have my car permagarded and want something to get her nice a dry after a rinse. I have never been a big fan of the shammy leather but maybe its cos i bought...
With the start of the summer weather appearing it was time to get the Trophy looking good again. The previous owner obviously had some kind of fascination with car washes judging by the swirlmarks in the paintwork :roll:
Having never PC'd a car myself I opted for the slightly lazyboy...
I wasn't planning to do this detail so early on in the year but a friend needed some photos for his new business and I acquired a new camera for Christmas so thought this weekend was a good opportunity as any. The weather forecast looked workable despite a shower on Saturday afternoon that...
I know there is one on cliosport, but how about having our own? Finding the best polishes and waxes, sharing tips on how best to clean the little red bullets?
Just a thought!
I am finally going to collect car number #478 tomorrow and was wondering if anyone had any last minute advice?
Obviously, I will check all the bodywork and tyres. I have been told that the car is in mint condition throughout.
Thanks... V dot excited! 8) :lol:
As I had today off work I decided to modify the air-intake system on my Trophy by removing the air-valve located near the horn to see what would happen as most after-market CAI on the market (ITG Maxogen & Viper etc) recommend removing the valve on installation.
To my surprise the cars feels...
Am downsizing to pay for the rest of this season's racing and so selling the Trophy for funds. It's been a good experience, great car and staggered at how much running in it took before the engine loosened up and performance started to really appear. Now it's aproper little roller skate...
I think dynamically it is the same as the Megane Cup, but it would appear it has the same Recaro's that are in our Trophy's, albeit in a different colour scheme - it has blue Alcantara, which I'm not to keen on...Quite like the exterior colour scheme, even the graphics!
There are some good...
im thinking of buying an chrom engine and ecu cover and getting the head pollished and painting red underneath. is this ok for the warrentee? and what do you guys thing?
like mikes from rentec
