Recently bought myself number 150 after many months of looking. I've only ever owned Clios in my life and I'm still not fed up of them yet. especially as the trophy is possibly the best hot hatch ever made. This one had 1 previous owner - a member of Mcbusted... but never mind that because my...

First off, apologies that this is my first ever post on here! I've done a lot of reading of the forums, but never had anything useful to say! The sad time has come to sell my Clio Trophy. It’s a beautiful car that never fails to put a smile on my face when I take it out for a drive at weekends...

Hi Guys, Picked up #126 just the other week. Previously owned a 172 PH2 in Oz before with mild mods, and now that i'm in the UK thought i'd go back to where it all started. Always wanted a Trophy and now the dream has been realised. As far as modifications previous owner installed a...

Hi - probably a dumb question, but if I want to get #478 feeling as "new" as I can, and i'm already all-in for a BG damper refurb, assume it makes sense to do the rears as well. Original sachs rears seem to be £105 as well - questions are: - Just the shocks, or make sense for Springs as well...

Hi all, Some of you the forum will know me already, although I've been quiet for a couple years. I've owned my Black Gold 182 since Oct 07, so I've had it for nearly 7 years. The car has been absolutely fantastic in this time, however due to me recently purchasing an E46 M3, I cannot justify...

Hi. Im just wondering a few things. On my car I have a set of Mark Fish springs. The car came with them fitted. I also got the standard springs as part of the deal. Without changing them around, can somebody tell me,, Are the MF springs shorter an stiffer than he standard ones.? If so, how...

It is finally time to say goodbye to my Clio, need to make room for a new arrival (Lotus Elise:up:). I'm sure there is a good home for my Clio out there. Car has full service history from Renault dealer all up to date, recently replaced gearbox has only done 400 miles, 12 months MOT all fine...

so next year will be the big 10! must be worth organizing some sort of meet? maybe at another car show, something like Origine RS or prescothill climb, basicly one of less chavy shows :D

Hi after a period of doing nothing to my Trophy and it not getting use due to me setting up a car showroom i was wondering if anyone is still running this mod? I still have mine. Has there been any further work done on these, i do love the torquey nature and the noise although it's very harsh...

I am considering selling 259 due to a change in circumstances. I have only driven 200 miles in Trophy in the last 8 months, 150 of those miles last weekend. I originally bought the Trophy due to the requirement of needing a fast but economical car. Now it is proven that I don't need the...

Hey. I'm a previous Trophy owner (#488) but sold that in order to help fund wedding/house purchase etc. I'm now in the position that I would like to buy another. I currently have a BMW 1 Series diesel for my commute to work however my plan maybe to get rid of that and use the Trophy as a daily...

Good Afternoon All Well 161 is now at its new home in County Durham, having driven her for a hundred miles or so and having had time to poke about like only you can having bought a car, I have a number of questions to ask... Any help appreciated. 1 clutch is quite heavy, not so much a...

I think the time has come to sell my car after 4 years of ownership. I fancy a change now and dare I say it probably something diesel. Once I get round to getting it out the garage and taking some photos I will post them up but at the moment just gauging interest really. It has full service...

I will be putting this up for sale soon but have no idea what to ask ? Anyone got a view on this. Car was a CAT D last year for panel damage however it is showing as HPI Clear so can't have been recorded. Currently showing 70k , no history can with the car however these a bit on the owners...

When one of my Sachs failed recently I was in a real dilemma over what to do. To have them refurbished is the best part of £500 just for the front two shocks and there’s no real warranty on the repair. Combine that with the horror stories of people having them refurbished just for them to either...

Hi guys, long time no speak. Back on the hunt for a trophy for keeps after letting number 71 go back in 2008 when I bought my second v6 Clio. Sold the v6 in July last year when I picked up my brand new range rover (2 kids and the failing ability to change gear myself tempted me into land...

Hi I've just refitted my Sachs after CF serviced them and like at least one other person on here they seem incredibly firm. Now I've owned my T for about 5 years and I've driven lots of other Ts so I have a pretty good idea of what's normal, and quite frankly my Sachs dampers currently feel...

I'm very reluctantly selling my Trophy. It is in exceptional condition, with only 43,500 miles and a full service history. I bought it 2 and a half years ago with the original tyres on the rear wheels and they still haven't (quite) worn out - that's how gently the car has been driven. The front...

Put the Trophy in for its annual service/MOT and it turns out BOTH front springs are broken and a rear damper is leaking. Car had basically sat for 6 months straight beforehand so I am surprised. Front dampers are fine with no leaks (they were refurbed last August). My questions to you good...

For sale is my 2005 Renault Sport Clio 182 Trophy, Number 441/500. After owning numerous RenaultSports in the past, I thought it was time I finally owned a “Trophy”. Due to a change in circumstances and a significant increase in my annual mileage, it is with regret, my Trophy is for sale. The...

I've recently acquired 321 and although I am very happy with it, I am looking for ways to make it my own.. Thoughts so far are to send some of the interior trim to Spray shack and let them do their magic and also alcantra on the A posts.. Ive seen some folk add carbon fibre or red bits inside...

This is the second time my car has done this over the last week. Its never done it before and i am not sure if its an engine problem or an alarm/immob problem. Once the car has been started and driven i have no issues with turning it off and leaving it and starting it again but this is now the...

Hi Im looking to buy a Trophy and as well as looking at some great ones listed here, there seems to be lots on ebay as well as other sites such as Gumtree.. At the moment there is 9 available on ebay which is making it difficult for me to make a decision.. As you guys are experts in all that...
