driver

A couple of people have had a look at my car,as they believe that the drop-link/anti-roll bar? bush has perished on the driver's side. and as a result when the car is driven, there is a loud creaking noise whenever the steering wheel is turned. We've had a feel around, and where the anti-roll...

Numberplate T*04 PHY I think, cliotrophy sticker, plus some kind of black X on the left of the boot panel. Driver: young lad, dark complexion, black spiky hair, driving slow enough for me to pass him in my workTransit [-X which I was admittedly hammering. Very clean and shiny too! =D>

I'm thinking of getting something RWD to replace my Trophy perhaps an Elise or VX220 but can anyone make any other suggestions or have they had any experience with either car? Thanks. :)

i need bit help here i want to upgrade again and its either turbo or throttle bodies with stand alone ecu? any ideas :shock:

Had to take the trophy off the road last week as cant aford to insure it at the mo as the uninsured driver that hit me hasnt paid up so lose my no claims. its a sad time :(

Over the past few months i have noticed a squeaking sound coming from the driverside front damper on the T - it has also become very 'spongey' in comparison to passengerside! :( Is this likely to mean they needs refurbing? Any advice appreciated!

Spotted you as i was heading north to leeds must of been nearly 4pm, you were heading south i gave a wave out the driver side window dont know if you saw me.

Dear All, After getting back from South Wales today, I would like to ask: what is the best technique for carrying speed into and out of a corner in a Trophy? I know all corners are different: different gears required, different braking points, different throttle pressure etc, but is there a...

Okay, So me and some friends were fitting the Maxogen induction kit and had to stop part way through as it was getting a bit dark and we need a smaller socket tool which we didn't have. The problem I have is the bonnet refuses to now open after it was closed. I let it shut as normal then...

Having just stepped out of an R27 into a Trophy i was wondering how many miles you guys were getting out of a tank? I seem to be averaging 31mpg on the daily commute, a fair bit more than the R27 at around 26mpg but that also had a bigger tank, so couldn't get my head round the maths!! :oops: I...

Hi folks, Just had my new car insurance through @ £1600. cheapest i can get it. all because the women who hit me in the car had no insurance or driving licence. Had to pay my £600 excess to get it fixed, what do i pay my insurane for!!!!? :evil:

ive just been on the k tech website and they now have a low presure turbo kit for all 182s, and they will take it to rs tuning in leeds for a custom remap (3 hours worth)it all cost around the 3k mark, on their graph is says its putting out 212 bhp and about 200 ib ft so that would put its power...

Have any of you Trophy owners out there got a Yozzasport system on your car, and is it really as 'LOUD' as some of the forums make out? I have gone round the houses with my exhaust choice and now looking at the yozza, as the build quality looks excellent and there does'nt seem to be any bad...

Spooted today around 1230ish on the A4 by the leisure center, female driver.

On the drive to work my passenger recaro developed a slight rattle :( . Is there a definative way to fix this? im sure there has been a thread on this before but i cant find it. P.S i did find what looks like half a white BB underneath the seat and wondered whether this could be part of the...

So i recently got new tyres on the rear of my car so it would pass the MOT, it did pass but he said the fronts were getting close to the limit. So i swap the fronts to the rear of the car so they last a bit longer. Then there was a wobble at 60mph so after a nightshift i waited up till 9am and...

Bit of a random one this, but I fancied having a moan about the appalling quality of a lot of the driving on our roads. Sometimes it's so bad it actually scares me. I think my biggest pet hate, or one of them at least, is people who randomly brake for no reason. Not necessarily heavy braking...

And i feel so sad knowing i won't be able to driver Mr T :( One of my good friends has offered me a good deal with his 106 GTi track car resprayed dark grey in part ex so i can use that on track and not worry about it so much and more or less clear my outstanding balance on the clio! Bonus...

sotted on the way into Pont tonight, at the badger roundabout..got a wave of the driver - i was in the R27

Morning all ! ok so i got my Trophy Pretty much fresh out the box. taken the Acoustic Value off, getting some fat piping today. and i also getting the brakes done (discs lines fluid etc etc.) ok so, i know that when it comes to Mods if you don't have a set plan, and you just fiddle, thats when...

In a thread comparing hot Clios to Focus RS's on an RS forum I've joined, someone responded to my post about my car by saying: =D> Suppose I could still change my mind and keep her! Thread (registration required)

Short story, my clio has bankrupt me and i need to fix it before i sell it in order to sort out my finances. Damn i miss driving it though, this is the first time i've not driven it for more than 2 days since i got it 13k miles ago :( Long story: I loved trophies when they were released but was...

Thought I would pop over and show you guys my newish baby! Had her since march, my daily driver with only 12k on the clock :P She can go some too! Missed the 182, so the 197 had to go as I love the mk2 shape! Here she is, im heavily into my detailing incase you were wondering! :wink...

I have a swiss trophy and the previous owner removed the standard recaros to fit bucket seats. I am now considering taking the buckets out and fitting the recaro seats again (the buckets won't pass the ultra stringent Swiss version of an MOT which is due soon). However, the Swiss edition came...

Yes tread shuffle not truffle shuffle! :lol: Well my question is, is there such a thing? If so what does it mean! I ask because had the Trophy booked in yesterday as im noticing small knocking noise when moving the steering wheel ever so slightly from side to side! You can also feel it...

This afternoon with a female driver, how you didn't see me I don't know! Left a card anyway :)

Hey. :D Ive just had these fitted to the Trophy along with the powerflex dogbone mount. I decided to buy these mounts because while back I had my car put on the RR and I was shocked by the amount of movement from the Engine under acceleration and when backing off the pedal at high revs. The...

After my recent trip to the Ring in my Trophy I felt the car was lacking outright power which is no surprise as I used to track and ring an E39 M5. I bought the car with the intention of using it as a daily hack but a have really grown fond of it especially it's capability on track. I now need...
