I loved the Trophy and thoroughly enjoyed my 12 months with it, but one lazy Saturday afternoon I read about the Clio 200's top-5 finish in eCOTY and casually trundled down to the local Renault Garage to see what all the fuss was about.
Three days later I placed my order.
There has been a lot...
Morning all :)
just a quick thread to ask a simple question, this might make for an intersting read, if the answers provided are conclusive and factual, as much as i enjoy opinions everyone has one, so facts only please.
For all you who have had rolling road read outs, what do you actaully...
Does anyone have them? I'm not just refering to the strut top ones, I mean the rest that hold up the engine and gearbox. Mark Fish ones would be preferable, but not essential. I'm really wanting these so would like the opinion of someone that has them, potentially to see and feel it in their car...
2005 (55) Renaultsport Clio 182 Trophy.
I am the second owner of the car, which I purchased at 19,500 miles. Currently just gone past 40,000 Miles. The car has been very reliable throughout its life and has been a pleasure to own. I drive the Trophy most days and always make sure the engine...
Hi, i need to replace the gearbox oil on my Trophy but i am unable to locate where to put the oil.
Does any body have any advice and pictures to help me?
I am unable to run my Trophy until this is fixed.
Cheers,
Eliot.
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:
Hi there,
I recently bought myself a 2002 Clio 172, and it seems to have a bit of a problem with condensation. It seems to get quite steamed up in there, and takes longer than I would expect to clear even with the fans on max. From what I have read, and a bit of common sense, I think that the...
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...
After a year of ownership I'm selling my Trophy.
The car is in excellent condition - I just spent 8000 Swiss Francs having the gearbox, clutch, drive shafts, starter motor, rear dampers, and many further parts replaced so the car now drives like new.

I have always fancied doing this but I think I've watched too many of these.......

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...

Hi,
I'm the new owner of Trophy No.243 T9PHY which I collected today after some fraught negotaiting with Renault dealer who had it. I know it was owned by a member on here who I contacted before buying it, and I thank him for his information.
It's my new daily runner to replace my late spec...
Hi,
Has anyone fitted an LSD to there 182? or any other type of diff. Would it be worth fitting an LSD to a 182? Imagine an LSD on a trophy! putting its power down! 8)
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...
Hi,
I was driving my 182 the other day and I had various probelms with the gearbox and was unable to put the car into 2nd gear without a crunching sound.
I have since taken my car to Ren O Tech in Chelmsford and they have told me i basically need a new gearbox and have suggested that I replace...
I'm thinking of getting something RWD to replace my Trophy perhaps an Elise or VX220 but can anyone make any other suggestions or have they had any experience with either car?
Thanks.
:)
Picked up my Trophy from Lookers Renault in Chester on Saturday, traded in my Black R27 after 16 months of ownership. Always wanted a Trophy and this one seemed to be just right, decent price, low miles(26,000), 3 month main dealer warranty.
After collecting it i went for a play in North...
Some years ago, Paddy married an attractive woman, Maggie, half his age, in a small coastal Irish community.
After several months, Maggie complained that she had never climaxed during sex and according to her Grandmother all Irish women are entitled to a climax once in a while..
So, to resolve...
Ok,
I think this is a different one. Mine sounds fine until you go over the magic 3K rpm mark. Then as the engine revs go down towards 3k (decelerate) the exhausts rattles and moans alot. It stops at the 3K point on the way down too. The extra vibrations from this can be felt though the gear...
Hey. :D
Ive just had these fitted to the Trophy along with the powerflex dogbone mount.
I decided to buy these mounts because while back I had my car put on the RR and I was shocked by the amount of movement from the Engine under acceleration and when backing off the pedal at high revs. The...
hi there,
