I've just been out and had a test drive in my first Trophy today. Unfortunately, I didn't note what number it is. Quick questions. 1-we have 3 auto cars at the moment and haven't driven a manual for a while. The clutch engaged/disengaged cleanly but did seem a bit heavy. 2-the steering wheel had...

Popped to see a mate today who works in a garage. While I was there I got talking to a customer who was waiting for his car to be MoT tested. He noticed my car and commented on the twin exhausts and said that he neighbour had a Clio with exhausts like that.. he said it had been standing in...

Hi Guys and Girls, I'm in the market for a Trophy to replace my Octavia vRS. I've got a couple of questions so feel free to give me some pointers. I will only be driving my car at weekends as I have a works van during the week, my Skoda's brakes suffer by not been used and so I was wondering if...

Used once! bought just before xmas, selling only to moving a load of stuff from the garage as building a new one. £20 just like this one! http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/I ... Set_9.html can get pics of actual bucket if needed!

110 has done 38,769 but I've only done just over 2k since acquiring her in June 2010. I'm just curious as to how well used these cars are on average? Is your Trophy a daily driver or a weekend/summer toy? Cheers! :)

I recently purchased a house which means I maybe forced (regrettably) to move the Trophy on :(. Currently I'm not in a rush to sell as it's tucked away in a garage (been there for the last couple of months) and I'm using a different car to keep the miles of the T. Usual Trophy Spec. 2005...

For those of you who don't use cliosport, thought i'd post up my new race car for this season for you to have a look at. Picked it up at the weekend, ex 2006 TCR Onslow-cole Championship winning car. Driven it the grand total of about 20 yards so far, on and off the trailer and into the garage...

Hi i have always said on all my cars i have owned if engine required major repair i.e. piston bent valve etc.. I would put uprated internals in and bolt a turbo on (if only it was that easy:-)) Just woundered wat peoples views are on turbo trophy? (Just to add there is nothing wrong with the...

Heard a rumor that if you plug a Fault Code Reader in and cancel the emissions light (de-cat) it will go off and stay off? is this true? I would figure it would just come back on again after XXX-miles, does anyone have an informed insight or better a code reader (southampton way)?

Hi, Well it that time where I have to get the belts (timimg etc)done... what belts get done and how much does it normally cost.. Renault are quoting £658. Does that sound resonable or should i look around. regards, jsthomson

What is a trophy worth in bits? The car in question is completely standard with engine failure Dampers are fine, one wheel has a kerb mark that I can see and the mileage is 65-70k miles. I'm informed the gearbox is fine and the recaro's are in mint condition, any help is appreciated

I spent a useful afternoon in the garage today changing over the Recaro seats in my Trophy. Its done a few miles now and although the drivers seat is still very good, I thought I would even up the wear by swapping the seats over. hopefully this will extend their life somewhat as the drivers...

Hi Guys and Girls, Can you please help and explain what the Exhaust Gas Monitor Warning light 'Flashing' actually means in English. The eplanation in the handbook is as helpful as usual. Can I drive the car slowly to the garaga 3 or 4 miles away? The tempature gauge has been fluctuating...

Recently my car has not been starting properly on the first turn of the key if its turned to quickly. i read up on this and it seems alot of 182s suffer with it but today it took me maybe 15 attempts to start the car. The car was turning over strongly but just not catching before but this time...

As the car is off the road and its sitting on the ramp at work i decided to start to clean some bits and bobs over the next couple of weeks. I have started with the front arches and here is some before and after pics.

For sale is my much loved 2003 VW Lupo Gti in Tornado Red. Selling due to recently buying a Trophy. The Lupo is currently on 87,450 miles but will go up as it is used to commute daily (nearly all motorway miles currently averaging 44MPG). It has only had 2 previous owners before me and...

Hello! My first post on here and was just hoping for a bit of information to help me along the way. Thinking of selling my 172 cup and wanting to upgrade to a 182 trophy, i've looked at alternatives and feel the 182 trophy would be a great choice for me - has anyone else had a similar...
