Have this at the mo as mines in the steelers..... Not a bad car, underpowered is an understatement though - feels as quick as the 1.0 Nova I started driving with but significantly heavier.
Still It's a school run car not a sports car so it's about spot on for that. The only thing, and it's...
Just wondering if anyone has any experience or advice about head unit and speaker upgrades for my new trophy.
Not looking for a crazy install or anything like that, just looking for a half decent head unit that'll play MP3's and will be able to hook up to an ipod; And a set of front and rear...
I know this is not posted in the alarm section, but im not sure if neone's experienced this but i hope someone can help. Basically when i want to lock the car plip key does not work and lock the car if im head on to the car or the drivers side, but if i stand on the passengers side or at the...
Broke my fron splitter this morning :( Very amateur I know.. £150 from Renault for a new plastic one!
Then I remembered this http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=977 which is both cheaper and not plastic. Anything else I should consider before adding the above to the list for...

...and I want one already. Yes, too heavy, forced induction, blah blah blah but it's going to have over 300bhp and weigh less than an EVO X, it will rock. I feel sorry for all those poor sods in their ST's with Wolf and GGR kits...
My run in the UK is over on Monday and I'm returning to Vancouver via Beijing via the Trans Siberian railway via Moscow. While I didn't get out and about to meet as many of you as I'd of liked, I just wanted to say a general thanks to the folks associated with (and importantly running and...

Had left No369 in for the 12K service at local Renault dealer and on pick up was told that a minor mishap had occurred. If you call a 4 inch score on your wing a minor mishap.
The mechanic had been holding a screwdriver between his legs and accidently managed to put a deep score on the drivers...
Can anybody please tell me where i can find the chassis number of my trophy. I cant seem to find a plate or anything under my bonnet like in my old car.

Going to be trying to get into this market in the new year. Have teamed up with a long-standing Jap Import Specialist with his own man out there. Big learning curve tho with purchase, shipping, insurance, ESVA test - as well as (I am told) different auctions grading quite a bit differently and...
What's the most anyone's had out of their Trophy? A friend recently borrowed mine and said he took it up to 155mph with his dad in the passenger seat and felt like it still wanted to go even faster! I know the speedometer reads 160mph but I found this hard to believe as the spec notes top speed...
When I was cleaning #488 the other day I noticed some sort of damage on the rear, offside damper but the rear nearside is fine.
The damp section is just water....I hope!

Just walked past my trophy in the garage this evening and noticed the drivers side rear damper is covered in oil and a small puddle by it. :(
Anyone else had the same?? If so dod you have any issues claiming under warranty or getting hold of the part?

Can anyone tell me the correct suspension settings for a trophy.
F/R toe, Camber etc as I'd like to check all the settings on my car.
I suspect the 60% worn tyres are contributing to the torquesteer, but would like to check before replacing them.
Note that 7MAT seems to have increased...
Following on from the other thread, i have heard back from autostyle. They will give customers a 10% discount if we can make 5 or more orders.
The price is £74.95 (no discount) for the best mats and includes a heel pad. Post your name up if you want them.
