The time has come to part with my Trophy.
I actually had it up for sale in Feb & had quite a bit of intrest. But alas I had to withdraw from sale as the the deal on my replacement fell through & a day later my wonderful baby daughter was born..... 8 weeks early.

Hi Guys does anyone know where the cheapest place is to get Michelin's for my Trophy? I've seen some really daft prices online and was quoted a ridiculous number by a local tyre shop.
Had the car up on the hoist at Ren7Oaks last week to check on the exhaust back boxes and dampers, and although the latter are just fine, one of the back boxes has deteriorated further since it was serviced in September 09. Thankfully it isn't blowing yet, and I am still undecided as to what to...

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.

Hi im unable to put my hand on my service book at the moment and im unsure of when my cambelt needs replacing. 70,000 rings a bell, is this correct? Is there an age limit as well?
Hey guys, just want to pick your brains? I'm looking to buy a OBD reader and I just wondered if anyone could tell me which model number I should buy? I've seen the one that K-tec sells but I've noticed what looks like the same one cheaper on ebay, but I'd just like to confirm if I'm ordering the...
I've had a search on the forum but managed to miss this if it's already been posted.
Does anyone have the 4-wheel geometry settings for the Trophy as it rolls out of the factory at Dieppe?
I have heard some horrible news today!.... The guy who I bought my car off, who was a registered owner on here! has outstanding finance on the trophy!? I did a HPI check when I bought it and it was all clear?! They have rang me up and said they are not taking the car but more interested in...
Not what you like to find when you open the garage door in the morning!
Safe to say that one is dead, any advice what to replace it with? Should I just replace that one with a standard item or replace both rear shocks with Konis while im at it? Any real advantage with Konis?
Cheers

Hi Guys, I'm sure it's probably on here all ready but does anyone know what length the wiper blades are suppose to be on the T? I don't think the ones I've got on mine are the right length at the moment and, well at least I know that one of them isn't right!
Ok my T is a 55 plate 35k miles. I do approx 8k per year. I use it everyday for work 13 miles each way. Last week I used it everyday, twice on Sat. Day off Sunday. Came to start it at 5am Monday morning and it woldn't start, ticking over but not starting. My bro put it on the charger while I was...
Hi all,
I've decided to buy a set of alloys for trackday use and not sure what is best.
I'd like to keep the car as "normal" as possible and have a spare set of PE2's in my garage (with approx 3-4mm) which I thought would do me well on a track day. Also my local garage has said that I can...
Hey,
Does anyone know where the cheapest place to get rear suspension for trophy part number 8200 519 954. I am finding it difficult to find someone that stocks them.

.................well managed to replace 1 ball joint and it took me hours! The holding nut was rather tight to say the least.
Similar subject, looking to replace the top mounts with solid ones but wondering if there are any options where the chassis is not drilled?
I have sourced...
I've snaped my nearside front spring. :(
Does anyone have an original one, with the correct number on it: 8200514730
I doubt the sides are different, but just in case they are then it is the nearside one I need.
Thanks

The Ski season's just about over now here (maybe one or two more chances but it's getting warm now) - I read in the owners manual that one cannot fit Snow Chains to the Trophy (or the 182 either I think), this is a bummer if I want to use the T to go...

Few questions - I had the aux belt changed in October 2008 (car was on just under 36k) The car is now on 48700 ish so will not reach 72k before the 5 year cam belt change.
When does the aux...
