    Trophy for Life.

    Anyone planning not selling their Trophy and keeping it mint for the long term. I had thought about selling mine and getting 8.5 plus but, On second thoughts a good Williams still makes 3k (1994) and my 1990 1.9 205GTI is worth 2k all day long. So 8500 today and keep it mint and it will...

    Thinking about joining the club...

    Afternoon all.... Newbie here!! Currently got a FF182, but now the Trophy seems to be luring me in... I was hoping you could help me out with a few things.. 1 - The warranty - I've heard that you can extend it with Renault, is this true, is it worth it? 2 - I've yet to get a test...

    gdi mods

    Has anyone had the 172/182 Inlet manifold / GDI ECU / Cam Package from gdi? Think it looks quite good 1500 quid for 200bhp and 180 torque, i spent about £800 on ecu, exhaust and induction for my old 182 and probably didnt get near 180 torque, maybe 157 torque but nowhere near 180...

    Interior light upgrade?

    Is it possible to do a straight swap for the FF's interior light, which (I believe) has a map light built-in to it? I'm doing a navigational rally tomorrow night and have just had to rig up a load of cardboard and masking tape to shield the light from my side of the car... :lol: If anyone...

    Blooming Recaros...

    I've had the car 3 days now, and done about 400 miles...It really is fantastic and I see why someone has termed the car 'Super Mario Kart'. However, at the risk of sounding like a whinging so and so, my back and legs haven't stopped aching. After about 20 mins in the Clio I begin to get...

    Is My Clio Cleverer Than I Thought? Or Is It Just Broken?

    My car has a strange problem with the radio: it won't work on Essex FM. Now, some would ask why I would want to listen to such useless music, but I quite like Martin and Sue and the Morning Crew, and the traffic reports can be useful. Anyway... I tune into the frequency or press memory button...

    Engine lacks power - Any ideas?

    Does anyone know of a problem where the car seems to lack power. My car seems to lack power intermittently. At its worst it drives as if it has around 80 / 90 hp. It has no low down torque meaning it's most noticeable when pulling away or trying to overtake other traffic. It also runs a bit...

    Renault Warranty - Nightmare!!

    My drivers door on the Trophy is catching the bodywork and causing the paint to chip off on the door and body. I took it to my local franchised bodyshop and they said it would be covered under warranty but I would have to take it to Renault garage to get approved then past back to them. Three...

    Autoglym'd

    Polished this Integra with Autoglym High Gloss polish (black label). Highly recommended at the price (both car and polish!) and made this car and the 330 Conv look superb. Recommended as a quick fix too - I don't have all day like some of you guys!

    Ahhh Sanity

    After 4 months of ownership my hair nearly all pulled out and my blood pressure sky high - I finally decided to make the change - and quite fitting that when I had fitted it the heavens opened! What a difference, can't believe I hadnt done it sooner! A recommended modification :)

    How Fast Have You Taken Your Car?

    A while ago, an empty stretch of road presented itself to me, so I thought I'd see how fast the Trophy would go. Now, it wasn't the longest stretch of road ever so I couldn't keep my foot planted forever, but it was long enough. It's not very quick over 100mph, but as it clicked past 125mph it...
