Hi all!
If your like me and enjoy reading car magazines such as Evo, Autocar etc etc. Then you'll see that the white R26R has been reviewed by every magazine under the Sun this month (including The Sun!!).
So is it the new Trophy? Is it special enough? And will there soon be an R26R website...
Saw you as I parked up at Bedgebury and you were just getting out of your car with your mates. Didn't get your number plate though.
Thanks for the note under the windscreen - you're my first Trophy spot in about 6 months!
Hope you had a good afternoon.
Tracy :D
some people make me laugh, i was on holiday earlier this week and ended up talking to some lads, got onto cars and i said i had a clio trophy and one of them said 'oh yeah i passed me test in one of those the other day' and then he said my trophys blue what colours yours, i just said ....well...
I am looking to buy and fit some harnesses to my trophy. I don't really want to go welding and drilling too many holes here and there for them though.
Whats the deal, are they easy to fir into the Clio's? Also does fitting them affect the running of the air bags etc?
I was looking at Sabelt...
The time has come to let the Trophy go.
The car is number 182/500.
One owner from new.
July 2005 05 reg.
Excellent condition, apart from front splitter.
No dents or dings.
Luke 3 point harnesses which can be left attached in the boot when not in use.
Blueflame exhaust (standard also...
Yesterday morning i levered myself out of bed at 5.30 to make the 80 mile trip to Mark Fish to get;
Goodridge Braided brake hoses,
Pagid RS4-2 pads
Brembo Max discs
Combrake solid top mounts fitted
Sachs dampers unpinned
And camber (2 degrees) and alignment (10 minutes) dialed in...
Has anyone got any info on how the warrenty works with regard to parts?
Just want to know what to say if they say, they cant give me a new driveshaft because it has a non standard air freshener or something lol
According to a brief article on the Whatcar website this is due to be launched soon. 205 bhp - excess weight stripped out - different suspension - undergoing SVA at present. Sounds very exciting until one reads the price; an estimated £27,000. Has anyone seen any more details?
The Trophy number 373 hit 25000 miles today, the last 7k of which I have had her for and what can I say, I have smiled since the day I picked her up.
In the few months I have had her here is what I have done so far with more planned for the near future
She was 100% standard when I picked...

Not spotted by me but my mate called me up at lunch to tell me he is on a track day and there is a Trophy showing some tuned mini's who is boss.
He was in a 350Z.
What can I say but what a top guy, had a long discussion about which direction we could go tuning wise, his current motorsport ventures and which teams arent following the rules
Had some toys fitted today and am happy as a pig in sh*t with the results, the ITG Maxogen complements the exhaust...
Sadly the time has come to put my V6 up for sale :(
Build number UK 175 with all the usual Clio V6 factory spec inc Xenons, sensitive wipers, etc as well as the following desired aftermarket modifications:
Pipercross Induction kit, K-Tec rear silencer & RS Tuning remap all of which make...
I know this has probably been done to death but friend of mine has to sell his EVO5, too expensive with the arrival of another rugrat. He can't afford a Trophy so wants to get the next best, opinions please.
I have just purchased a new set of rear seats for my Trophy and now im looking to sell my original ones.
If anybody needs to replace theres or knows anyone who would want them please send me a PM.
Any ideas as to what i would get for them should i sell them?
Many Thanks
Marc
Hi all,
Firstly let me start by saying hello to you all and congratulations on an excellent informative and interesting website.
We are in the proccess of searching for a 182 Trophy in or reasonably close to Hertfordshire hoping to pay less than £10k. I was firstly after a little bit of...
My trophy needs new pads and discs all round, I'm thinking of upgrading to some that feel more solid and that don't squirm under heavy braking as with the standard ones.......
I don't really know much about these things, anyone got any recommendations? Also, how does upgrading affect the...
Has anyone successfully changed the steering wheel yet on there Trophy or 182?
I'm having problems with the airbag warning light.
I purchased 2 x 4.7ohms resistors from Maplins - see photo below;
From what I've read over on cliosport this should be all I need but when switching on...
do the 182 rear seats split 60/40, as it drives me mad that the Trophy one's don't when I occasionally need to put them down.
Does anyone know if the leather 182 rear seats are a straight swap, I suspect they are.
How much might I pay for a set and what about door cards I've heard those...
Anyone any idea how the gearknob comes off, does it simply unscrew?
Ive never really liked the clios plastic gearknob and fancy swapping it for a nice leather momo one or something similar. With it being a lift up reverse the choice of suitable gearknobs is a bit limited - anyone changed theirs?
05/05 6,300m.
Bought Aug 06, now the second owner.
Got used to the 'tomato' now, handling is out of this world on my way to work down wet, greasy b roads.
Treated it too, ITG, boot net & shelf (bloody great) spare turini, silvervisions, soon to have wiper arm mod & lube & filter change.
