Hi all, I'm new here and just wanted a little help if possible? I ve seen a trophy that i'm really interested in but not sure if its the real deal... its silver to start, doesnt state what no. it is, wheels look like normal 182 models. The pictures are not too clear so i'm gonna go and have a...
Over on www.evo.co.uk they're running a car of the decade competition.
I'm jumping the gun slightly but 2005 should be coming up (possibly on Xmas day at the current rate) and hopefully we'll get a chance to vote for the Trophy :lol:
Right, having just bought a Clio trophy, my beloved Williams has to be sold. It's a really tidy example, but to make it mint it needs a small ammount of work on one arch, and the drivers sill, there is also a small chip on the bonnet. Also the clutch is fairly stiff, like most Williams, and the...
Just had a look at a Trophy for sale at the Arnold Clarke Ford main dealer on Scotswood Rd - Newcastle Upon Tyne.
its up for £7500 with 40k on the clock - Reg SM55 FUV - aparently came from a scottish dealer
Described as "mint" by the clueless salesman when i went in... however it was'nt.
Badly...
I have always fancied doing this but I think I've watched too many of these.......

Absolutly mental, George has my upmost respect :)
SM55 FUV????
I am looking to buy this car next weekend from 'Newcastle upon tyne'. I asked the salesman whether he knew the unique number of the car but he must of been looking in the wrong place as he said he couldnt find it. I am wondering whether anybody knows any history of the car or has...
Just recently my T has started making a few knocks and bangs, I have (what sounds like) the exhaust banging against the bumper when I go over any uneven road surface - but I don't think it is this due to the exhaust not moving much when you push it. Will have to investigate more!
But I was...
Tesco was at about 16:45ish coming out from tesco tonight, had a large sticker on the back window. The one in hardwick was about a week or so ago near north tees hospital. Where any of these you? :D
Bit of a boring one but we all like are cars to their best.

Onto the stats, are there any good...
:(

Hey all,
So I actually managed to drive a trophy at the weekend, my first time. It was a little disappointing but I have to say I don't think it was the best maintained example so that may be the reason for it.
The seats were fabulous (if the driving position a little upright),the steering...
After the credit crunch slump its nice to see a good selection of Trophy's back up at the £8k mark.
I'm just waiting for the 197 values to drop below! To put a smile on my face. :D
This is from a man who had an E30 M3 when it was worth less than an E36 & E46 M3. Maybe I should have kept that...

Evening All,
My drivers seat has started to develop a rattle. I've read various posts about this being a fault in the seat runners but does anyone know what the definitive answer is or how to cure it as I can't find it!?
Whenever I brake or go over a largish bump there is a clicking noise like...
.........seems to worse when manouvreing along my road in the mornings but not 100% sure what it is! Suspension still feels tight to an extent (although paranoid shocks need refurb), thought it may be a rear bearing?
Any ideas?
Hello everyone,
Just wondering how the trophy compares to the civy type r ep3. Sat in a ep3 yesterday and I was really impressed. I went on fast laps to compare the two and the pre facelift ep3 was faster than a T round Rockingham by 0.4 seconds. But Iknow that fast laps...
Hi just wondering has anybody had problems with the power steering fluid weeping out.. i think its a preasure sensor were its leeking tried nipping it up but still no joy....Any ideas local garage told me its a renault dealer only part so i phoned renault for new sensor with T piece the...
I have had a little knocking sound coming from the rear of the car for the passed week. I haven't a clue what it can be? At 1st it started off as a little rattle noise (like the rear parcel shelf or plastic) but after a good check I found nothing!
Thought it might have been the new rear koni's...
Hi all,
I am completely new to Renaults full stop, I have only ever had fords/vauxhalls in the past so i'm out of my depth but as you will see I couldn't pass this up!.
Not sure where to start really, I was offered a clio as an ex company car (who I work for) and was told it had high mileage...
...........unsure if it is my imagination but my Trophy appears to be lower on the front than the back when parked and thinking the worst about front dampers. Had recent MOT and no problems whatsoever, no leaks from the dampers and the 'gap' on both sides feel ok. Is it just my paranoya (sorry...
is Jenson Button undeserving of the World Championship? To me a world champion is always up there, gunning for podium places. Yes during the first few races he had a better aero package and trounced the competition, but in terms of out right talent Hamilton and Alonso have Button licked!
Your...
Which one would I be best off buying? I don't do many miles as I work away so I drive mainly at weekends. So it got me thinking a diesel might probably cost more than a petrol. But the diesel cupra has sooooo much torque! But I have heard they can torque steer out of corners! Which could be a...
It's time for another Opie Oils competition!
In something of a reprise of our competition back in June, we're giving away over £150's worth of cleaning, polishing and detailing products... but this time you stand more chance of a prize because there's the added bonus of 3 runners up prizes...
I'm currently having my dampers refurbished and had a snapped spring so I'm looking at getting some alternatives as replacements from Renault are a shocking price. I was recommended the Sportline Springs by Yozzasport but some other people think they will lower the car by up to 50mm?!
Has...
Anyone interested in getting trophy mats from autostyle? They come with the trophy logo and the edition number embroidered on them eg 353/500. Rang up today to order some £65 + £7 delivery and asked about a group buy. He asked me to gauge interest and depending on numbers he'll give us a price...
