.....just going west bound under the railway bridge approching Filton Avenue. I was heading East to swap the Tropy for my 197 Cup........

Im looking to lower the Trophy 10mm all around with a set of Eibach pro lowering springs, however, I cant find any on the internet, I saw a set on K-Tec which lowered the 182cup 20mm on the front and 15mm on the back, am I right in saying this would lower the trophy 10mm on the front and 5mm at...

I'm getting my geometry fine tuned within next couple of weeks. I'm yet decided if I'm going to go for -2 camber or just optimise/correct the factory settings. Does anyone know what the factory camber/toe settings should be exactly?

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...

I'm just wondering for those people that have gone from 182/172 variants to the Trophy if you notice the Trophy is snappier? I'm still not fully use to mine due to the conditions and lack of opportunities to really test the handling. I've noticed you need to work harder to keep the Trophy in...

Quite keen to try a Whiteline rear ARB on the Trophy, mostly read good reports. Any thoughts from anyone? Also note there is the start of a group buy over on the cliochav forum, sorry I mean cliosport. :wink:

05/55 car, so still in warranty. Everything that came with a new car is included, 2 Keys - now with personalised carbon fibre keyrings!, Tyre inflators, locking wheel bolts etc. The interior and engine are completely standard. Suspension and brakes uprated by Mark Fish Motorsport...

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...

Sold my Subaru a while ago now and decided to look for a 182, got 6k together to find one. I have seen a few around that price. My question is should i just borrow some money and just buy a Trophy. Are Trophys a better drive than the 182..... Johnny

front and rear strut braces? worth the money or not bother with the suspension set up on the trophy? what you think

Hello all, a merry christmas to you! I treated myself to a little present today, well you have to treat yourself now and again I suppose and I got carried away what with the time of year and all. After looking at a number of 182's I thought sod it and went for the ultimate version. I'm...

Got to be honest, been lurking quite a lot on here and you all seem a good bunch of lads. Anyway, here's some info on my car, I'll list the current spec in the first post and then I'll follow up how I've changed her since buying her last August. She's for sale by the way, and I may be...

I can see me getting one of these in the next few months, so I'm going to give one a go tomorrow at the local Renault dealer. I'm hoping it'll be the perfect car for me - I love the way the Trophy handles, but I don't like the relative lack of power and torque. I loved the way my Focus RS...

Hello All, I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days. I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...

Had a bit of spare time on my hands yesterday so took the Clio out for a blat last night. After a while turned the ESP off. Wow! Transforms the car! Acceleration has more bite as does the handling. The car is brilliant without the Esp on. Just shows how well sorted the chassis set up...
