I am reluctantly putting 473 up for sale. With the arrival of the forth member of the family last year we have finnally had to throw in the towl and admit we need something bigger. Also the car has only covered 4000 miles since its service in March last year so it is not being used as intended...
i went down to my local tesco today and saw a lovely s2 lotus exige in black. ive never seen one up close and can say it looks amazing. how much of a gap is is to a trophy? is it best for this sort of car be in a garage as i do not have one and that it would be parked outside on a main road...

I'm somewhat concerned by the cost of maintenance for the Trophy, but the question is how often does it need work doing? Do you folks find them to be reliable enough to not worry for a while or is there often an niggling worry that something could go wrong at any minute?
Given that I won't have...
A couple of sundays back Steve was kind enough to take me out for a run in his cup and show me why he decided to change from the trophy.. and then passed over to me for some fun down the the rs clios favourite territory the bumpy back roads/lanes, and now the chassis and the size over the trophy...
I'm looking for interest on a potential second batch of these exhausts. It's the best fitted exhaust available for the 182 and sounds ace. Weighs around 6kg less than standard system. There are a few vids on you tube if you have a search.

Hello.
I am on the look out for a Trophy but my misses wants separate seats and head rests in the back like this one.
Is this an option from the factory or do you just have to try and source the seats yourself? thanks for any advice on this even though i know its a strange? :oops:
ive been reading the news and found out that the goverment has gone ahead with the car scrappage sceme, this will enable motorists with there car 10 years or older to trade it in and get 2k off a brand new set of wheels. i fear that some williams owners might go ahead with it and trade in...
Hi all ..
Newbie here ... ;)
Being Renault daft as i am i have decided to treat myself to a Trophy, im based in the Glasgow area although most for sale seem to be miles away from me so it may take me a while to find the right one .. lol ..
I'll be doing as much homework as i can so maybe...
Can this be a vote on the two cars above. It is not a discussion on which is better. Simply answer 197 or Trophy.
Please don't just pick a trophy because you have one and are unable to see past it (although it is a great little car).
Thank you.

Hey folks,
Not quite sure what happened....went for a drive up the A1(M) from Herts to North Yorkshire in my Trophy and drove back home again in my Civic :? :lol: Was planning on keeping the Trophy until at least after Spa (which I obviously cannot drive the FD2 around in :oops: ) or maybe...
ive found some pics of the new clio sport 200 which hence the name gives you 3 bhp more than standard and looks well............ugly as hell!, thats my opinion. found out that the cup version will be 36kg lighter than the normal version too and the gearing for the first 3 gears is shortend again...
=D> ....i think people are finally starting to realise trophy's are amazing cars and people can't keep selling them for peanuts!!...mine was £9k last september there is no way on earth i would let it go for under £7k especially as it took me over 8 months to source such a minter (093)
Up for sale is my 172
The car is on 49,500 miles, it has had all work carried out that needs to be done at this mileage, i.e. all belts have been changed.
It's had 3 keepers from new; it has tax till March, and now has 12 months MOT

What do you all think of the new Focus RS? I'm wondering whether, after three and a half years of Trophy ownership, it might be time to P/X it against a new RS. The Megane R26R has been considered but is too much of a compromise, we're a one car house and I drive mostly motorway miles.Thoughts...
Hello all, im new to this forum and im thinking of getting a clio trophy so thought it would be a good idea to register! at the moment my daily drive is a 106 gti which has been fantastic so can anyone tell me if the clio will be just as fun do drive? and also how hard/easy would it be to tune...
They are loose again, but worse than the last time. Tightend only a year ago. I'm getting mark fish to look at them in about a month plus geo. Could they be worn out after 25K? Are there any motorsport ones i can upgrade to? :mrgreen:
Does anyone know for and against of this, plus other...
been a while since ive looked on this site, been over on v6clio.net a lot having changed back to the vee last august. Seems the prices havent come down that much since i sold mine, some advertised at 6495, 6950 and instead of people spamming their threads to say 'thats too expensive' they are...
One of the small steel brackets holding the ECU in place has cracked. Is there a fix? Its a Group N ECU which I got from GDI a few years ago, should I just have a word with them? Thanks for any help.
Hi all,
Firstly, does anyone know whether the key fobs will be being stocked again, as I would be keen on getting one.
I am due to pick up my T on saturday but I just wondered what everyone thought of the rear bench when they first saw it? I was sure it was from another car as it looks cheap...

Just to make other members aware that a clio on ebay is infact a CAT D repair, it is not advertised on ebay but the garage that look after me HPI'd it to find out that It had been involved in a collision,

Just took this snap to showcase my extensive fleet of motors! Not really. The Rover Cooper is off to Burton-on-Trent tomorrow, having been sold to fund Trophy 415. Luckily, the colour of the latter is a perfect match for my 03 WRX PPP, which I have had from new
My first post so thought I'd say Hi and hopefully get some useful advice. (tup)
I'm looking for a new daily car and a friend who is registered on here (DMC) has recommended the Clio trophy.
I've been looking through the classifieds here, on Pistonheads and Autotrader and found a few cars...
Hello.
This morning i turned on my 182 and drove away. Then i noticed a light on the dash in the middle under the petrol light. It was a rectangle with wiggly likes in it from left to right and same orange as the petrol light. The engine had very limited power (limited to under 3000 revs). I...
