Hi guys. Been a busy few weeks so not been on for while! I've been thinking about replacing the Clio, and amoung the current selection of contenders is the E39 M5. Yes, I know its a BMW... Wankers, no indicators blah blah etc, (I'd say the same..). They are a very good car, in all areas, and...

Just wondering how the Trophy stacks up against later Clio's? Similar pace, but what's the true quality difference and any handaling differences.

Anyone else filled out a car blog on Pistonheads for their Trophy? Here's mine: http://www.pistonheads.com/members/showcar.asp?carId=135165 Can't believe how much i've spent :shock:

Hello, My Trophy is all booked in for a Service & Cambelt in the next week and my pockets are literally empty. . . Mainly due to the fact that this also comes in the month when the MOT, Insurance and Tax are all due. Ouch! I was just wondering if there was anything else i should be aksing the...

Why cant i view a trip... like say i wish to calculate how many miles i do on a journey... I cant :( Someone said about you can view your Range (with amount of fuel left in car to how many miles you will get from it) Oh an my Cruise Control. If i switch it off. It just stays with the word SET...

I seriously want this. Take a look. I've wanted one since I was ickle. I know its a kids playing with toys/Mine is bigger than yours. But we are all kids at heart aren't we? http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1858135.htm But seriously, what do you reckon? Does anyone have any experience of...

Just got the call to say she failed primarily for exhaust emissions. Not sure what to do. Its a powerflow catback system fitted at the moment but I assumed that because there is still a cat fitted it should pass? It could just be a faulty sensor apparently, but I'm preparing myself that I may...

hi all, spoke to k tec today about throttle bodies with the ecu and performance cams. i also wanted the labour and vat included it was £3441 all in thats a dyno and mapping aswell. (poke) just wondering what you lot thought. my trophy is running 184.5 bhp atm with pipe and filter and sports...

i've got my 182 cup booked into K-tec next week for a janspeed/K-tec sports exhaust - i'm also really tempted by their "stage 1 tuning package" on offer for under £250 from £380 - has anyone else had it done? :? seems a shame to undertake a 5 hour round trip & not make the best of it

here's one for the techies out there... do sensors just report or do they control? maybe it depends on the sensor???? i.e. if you get a fault code. could the fault likely be caused a dodgy sensor or could a dodgy sensor have altered the EMS to trip a fault?

Sorry guys, but I've just got a Trophy and it seems to want to cut out all the time. Also takes a tad long to start up in the morning, turns over a couple of seconds longer than I'd think normal. Even once warmed up after a long drive, put it in reverse and start to move back and it'll just...

So how long do you plan on keeping it (meaning Trophies but anyone is welcome) all being well? A car you're going to keep 'forever'? Keep for a long time? Planning on changing? A stop gap? No idea? I have to say I've thought about changing my car in the recent past but little can get near...

Here we go.. My original plan was to buy a 182 and upgrade the seats, suspension and wheels. But when I worked it out it was slightly cheaper to go all out and buy a Trophy. Number 214/500 42k Miles, FSH, MOT, Tax, VERY good bodywork for the milage, Ran smoothley, and a decent price. Yesss...

So i thought i'd finally sign up here, some of you may remember this car: was the one there was a thread on here advising people not to buy it. However i did work for A/C at the and decided to take the risk to get it brought into my garage to have a good look at it and decide whether i wanted...

driving home today the exhaust monitor warning light comes on when I get stuck in traffic. This goes of when moving. The handbook says go to renault soon as. Anyone else had this, if so does the t need a new exhaust. simon.

Interesting article in the June magazine comparing the 200 cup and the 172 cup; 200 was 1.5 secs a lap quicker due to its "trick front suspension system and brakes" but the 172 was "more fun" ( I paraphrase). I believe Mr Metcalfe, who has some standing within said mag, owns a Trophy; I wonder...

Hey. Im in the process of building a substantial workshop and thought I would post a progress thread on here now I have actually got to a stage where the buildings is nearly ready to be built. I’ll give you all a bit of background as to how it all came about… Around 15 years ago my parents...
