Hello All,
I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days.
I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...

Heres some pics of Rou our wicked red vts. Rou short for rouge (red in french)
Had her a week now, shes had a new battery, new wipers, 4 new tyres, new bulbs, new number plates and had a good clean
Now that the 197 Cup has arrived I intend to buy one in the new year. This will mean that my beloved trophy will have to go, as (as much as I have tried) I can't find the funds (of justification) to keep both! So I'm putting him up for sale soon :( . If there is anyone out there who is...
Has anybody had any faults with their rear suspension? I've noticed my back drivers side is leaking :?

Just bought Trophy No 237 from Allvehicles.
Pick it up on Tuesday.
Traded in my Elise 111r and have to say i can't wait to get my mitts on the Trophy!
Car was absolutely immaculate and Steve was really helpful and easy to get on with.
No doubt i'll be on here a bit from now on!

A bit of a landmark day with the 50th Clio Trophy being delivered and buying the first FD2 CTR from Japan. Funny how in the 21st C you can spend a shed load of money when you are asleep!

Just come back from a driver training day and my front tires are down to the indicator and look ready to delaminate.
I always planned to get new tires after this day but here's the problem THERE ARE NO EXALTOS IN THE UK. :(
All the online shops say they are available but after ordering...
Hi all,
Considering a new exhaust system for the Trophy. I want a manifold back with sports cat system - but main concern being how loud it is. I wan't it to be as quite as possible. Can anyone recommend systems they have/heard and point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Hon
If anyone is interested.
Dear Julian,
Having presided over the first bank run in the UK since 1866, Alistair Darling is now about to add an extra 2.35p tax to every litre of fuel sold in the UK. This tax hike comes into force at the start of next week, just as oil prices are at record...
Has anyone ever modded the passenger window electrics to have auto wind like the driver-side? Presumably it's just a case of ordering the box of tricks that does it for the driver-side (as long as it's not part of some larger system), finding somewhere to hide it and wiring it into the loom...
Well, I've had No.99 for 18 months now and I think it's time to part ways!
I'm just in the process of buying a flat with my girlfriend and we really don't need 2 cars, plus selling the Trophy and foregoing the overheads (insurance, tyres, petrol etc...) would help to clear my debt much...

Has anyone noticed the shock on other motorists faces when you overtake? Perhaps when on an A road?
On my regular two weekly drive to see the girlfriend in Edinburgh via the A68 I ve noticed that other motorists are not willing to overtake. In fact they would prefer to be stuck doing 40 in a...

That's incredible, OK, do the 350X and S2000, but hold off the NSX? that's insane. I want one.
Watch the final F1 qualifying session from Budapest today? Alonso - THE most unsporting 'sportsman' to ever pull on a pair of driving gloves? Discuss....... :evil:
Hi guys just got back from Germany and tackling the famous Nurbiurgring.
What a place!! Absolute mecca for cars and enthusiasts. Saw some pretty fantastic looking cars and also some sheds! However, the sheds where quicker!!

As you know the Trophy sold and is going at the weekend... last night i went and viewed a Mk1 172 and ended up buying it. So my weekend consists of delivering the Trophy to its new owner and once home collecting my new car.
The Ph-Quick will be an interim car til i can get my hands on a...
Ok, so I haven't actually spotted the trophy in question, but i have a couple of pals who work at Heysham Power Station nr Lancaster, Lancashire. They tell me there's a fellow trophy driver who has been contracted to the Power Station for the 'Outage'. Wouldn't perhaps be on ere?
