Hi guys, title says it all. It's only a thought in the pipeline as I've just stumbled on what looks like a bargain at snetterton, £49 for the day, 15 may. Thing is, my car is absolutely standard, and I don't plan on modding, but I just want to see what the trophy can do in a safe environment. I...

Well eventually I have gotten round to fitting my new Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 tyres to go alongside the K-Tec exhaust and induction kit already fitted.
So on Thursday I am paying a visit to Dan at 519 Automotive to sort suspension and brakes.
On the list is a set of Spax RSX fully adjustable...
Hi guys.
im thinking off the idea of getting front and rear strut braces for the trophy.
but do they actually need them.
does anybody think they improve the handling??
I'd like some input from people who have fitted them.
thanks for looking
Hi guys
I hadn't driven my Trophy since Friday and went out this morning to fire her up prior to the morning commute. I turned the heaters onto full and set to the windscreen to clear the ice that had built up and went back indoors. I returned to my car after a few minutes and whilst there was...
I know this is a much discussed thread and I’ve trawled through the searches, but anyway I’m still undecided...
My front pads are nearing the time to be replaced at the moment I've got the Standard Renault discs and pads.
I’ve bought myself the Brembo HC Disks but I’m undecided which pad to...
Hi Guys , well have only just got my very first Renault Sport and it's number 451. I have driven lots of fast Clio's over the years and was looking for a reasonably priced Clio for trackdays and a little bit of agile fun. I have always loved the look of the Trophy and even though I am a VAG man...
Had an accident the other week in the Clio, everyone ok, car was driveable, not my fault, but going through as a 50-50 AFAIK.
Body blow today when got a message saying it was a write-off! Damage to passenger side between the axles but am shocked as the coachworks thought it wouldn't be.

Hello Cliotrophy.co.uk :)
This is my first post on the forum so ill try keep it relatively short!
I'm currently on the hunt for my second trophy. I sold my First Trophy roughly a year ago and miss it like mad! I'm a massive Honda man so have always had those as a rule but the clio just won me...
So just this evening, officially the Trophy changed hands from Sir_Dave to myself. Drives awesome for a Clio with 186,601 miles, better than quite a few clios i've driven actually!
Plans -
Needs an interior so a 172 Cup interior's being sorted.

Hi everyone.
Me and the other half sat in both of these at the Berkshire show yesterday and really liked them, especially the BRZ. We'd like to test drive them both but they're £27,000.
Basically either a house deposit or the car!
We've been wondering if it's morally right to test drive them...
Can somebody please report back on the following:
Driving straight ahead at 60+ MPH using small movements of the wheel around the centre is there much "feel/feedback"? I have had lots of work done on curing a wandering/tramlining problem which is now sorted and the handling/steering feel is now...
I'm in the market for another Clio Trophy. Having had one before I know what there all about and think it would make a great weekend toy. I'm in no made rush but clearly wanna get the best one for my money. Ie dampers done if poss as well as good service history.

Hi Everyone,
Im currently looking to buy a trophy and over the past few weeks I've noticed more and more coming up for sale but rarely selling. Then last night 3 came up for sale within the space of 2 hours on Pistonheads. Is this a coincidence or am I missing something here? Is there an...

Here I have for sale My Renaultsport Clio 182 Trophy 142/500. Reason for sale is I've purchased another car. I have owned this car since april and it has been totally faultess. I am an avid Renaultsport enthusiast owning a Ph1 172 before the Trophy and I am currently in the process of rebulding...

Or perhaps not.
This is a Trophy afterall ... Handling > Lowz:up:
On Sachs / Sportlines
On H&R's
Very pleased so far, ride is lovely, far better than the Sachs in fact, which would imply that they are probably a little softer. Havent really pushed it particularly hard as the camber/toe...
I re-discovered Evo magazine’s raison d’être last weekend – the thrill of driving.
I bought my Trophy (#23/500) in early December. Its one previous owner had serviced it regularly but in most other respects it needed a dose of TLC including: refurbished front dampers; new exhaust; rear...
Hi,
Just thought I'd say hi. I've been on cliosport.net for a while but thought I'd join yours too.
I don't have a trophy but I do have a 182 in petrol blue.
