pedals

I have recently crashed my Trophy and she is in a bad way :( The offside sill is now a new 'feature' inside the car just ahead of the drivers seat and behind the pedals. The damper on this side is now also inside the car.. lying down on the back seat still attached to the front wheel in fact...

How much are the Alloy pedal pads from a main dealer, does any one know where to but them cheaper, and I will pop rivet them on, my 182 failed the MOT because the brake one was worn.

Evening everyone. I've been umming and ahhing about selling the Clio for a while now, it's costing a fair bit to run which isn't great when I have another expensive hobby. So i've decided I should probably try to get a cheaper car that's as fun and although i've looked at MX-5s and the like...

Irecently purchased a Liquid Yellow Clio 182 on 30k from Robin and James atProline Performance in Milton Keynes. Onfirst inspection, all looked good, and it was the only Liquid Yellow 182 thathad the factory sat nav fitted, so I went away pretty happy at £5250. Duringmy commute to work I...

I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing. Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread. Do you, A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres? Or B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear. ?

In my quest to create a 100% as-new Trophy, I would like to replace the silver-grey insert on the gear knob, as it's slightly scratched from a ring. My question is can you just replace the insert or do you have to replace the whole knob? I'm assuming the Trophy gear knob and insert is the same...

HI iv got a 182 cup 2004, just reasently its started blowing out hot air at what ever temp selected sometimes it works correctly but rarely, the air con works because i can hear it click in when the air con button is pressed, can anybody help please!!??

Hi, Having just completed a 1,000 miles since buying Trophy 383 from pm_air I thought it about time I shared my initial thoughts: Having wanted a Trophy since they first came out I have to say the car is great fun and lives up to the hype. I came close to buying one new to replace my Elise...

Hi everyone, Does anyone find the brake and clutch pedals slippery wet damp or wet, being made from ali? I found this a problem in my 172 and still do in the Trophy. A couple of times my foot has slipped off the clutch all together when very wet, thankfully without harm. On my previous 172 I...

Hi I am getting myself a mountain bike shortly and just wondered those of you that have them do they fit in the Trophy Ok? obviously I will remove the front wheel! Cheers

Hi Guys My Trophy appears to have just started making a "clicking" noise when you pull away. Its still under warranty but just wanted to know if this was a common thing so i could perhaps relay some feedback to renault. Thanks

Perfect condition Onza T-Pro 20" mod trials bike, only mods are Tioga bars, FSA headset, DMR pedals and chain tensioners. VERY capable bike in the right hands, suitable for beginners and pro's. This bike is very very manouverable and the Magura HS33 hydraulic brakes are oustanding...

For giving the Trophy the clean it has needed for a while. Especially the wheels. Just need to keep it looking fantastic now. Big plug for Ady and Shine Detailing. I am sure there are some pics that will be kicking about somewhere from this weekend. Day those pedals were a bit lethal on...

I've had the car 3 days now, and done about 400 miles...It really is fantastic and I see why someone has termed the car 'Super Mario Kart'. However, at the risk of sounding like a whinging so and so, my back and legs haven't stopped aching. After about 20 mins in the Clio I begin to get...

Heres some pics of Rou our wicked red vts. Rou short for rouge (red in french) Had her a week now, shes had a new battery, new wipers, 4 new tyres, new bulbs, new number plates and had a good clean

OK, have been lurking for a while and am ready to buy a car, I have 8k to spend ready in the bank so really I expect I am looking at a 182 with Cup Pack(s) but I thought I would try on here to see what a Trophy goes for nowdays. I am not after a flaming for insulting the value of the Trophy...

what does this actually do, and how do you do it?

I've started to learn this technique on downshifts blah blah, i can blip the throttle in my Saxo quite easily but not in the Trophy, is this beacause:- A - the pedals are to far apart B - i'm not pressing the brake pedal in enough. C - my feet to small? pleae help a wannaby track star!

Has anyone driven one? I had a drive in one yesterday and i have to say i was mightily impressed. Steering, handling, and brakes are all very very good. Its not Trophy 'chuckable' on the country roads but i was surprised at how nimble it felt and how much grip there was - especially as its a...

Right I have a spare set of dash inserts and trying to get hold of a spare gear knob insert and the steering insert. Was just wondering what you lot thought about this.

Still looking thinking of getting a trophy but after having a look around the 197's are only a little more expensive, and newer model therfore less depreciation more warranty and newer model e.t.c. Anyone have any experience witht eh 197 and how it rates to the trophy? Although i suppose the...

Just got back from Northampton after purchasing Trophy 452. :) Pick it up next Saturday. One owner, ~4900 miles, 55-reg, as-new condition, completely standard. It looks just like all the others, but I'll be sure to post up some pics when I collect it. Haven't looked forward to picking up a...

nerly crashed the trophy the other day because my foot slipped off the clutch. which made me think are the pedals on our cars legal? i always thought the clutch and brake pedals should have some sort of rubber grips in them to prevent this?? anyone got any ideas?

It's a feature of the Trophy that's often forgotten, correct me if I'm wrong but it is unique to the Trophy right? Or was it an optional extra on the late FF 182's? Anyway, does anyone still use theirs? I used to use it a lot when I first got the car to keep my license but I don't think I've...

Hi all ive got a trophy with a sticking throttle when you floor the throttle in say 2nd or 3rd, when you press the clutch down to change gear the engine just revs up like its out of gear, like someone has just floored the throttle and it just revs up to the limiter and sits bouncing of it...

I have been thinking about chucking the trophy in for something more fun, getting a bit bored. Im mainly looking at the bargain monaro vxr's that have just come on the market maybe even a 500 version but im a bit worried i may wish i hadnt bothered. Want something with a bit more grunt and a...

I have been in touch with justmatz, they are the company that produce the mats for cliosport. I have given him a description of what I want, Plain black mats with the Trophy logo. Hopefully they will come back with a good price for a full set. So, who is interested in a set? Remember...

Hi All The Trophy is going cos the new baby is about 8 weeks away and i need 4 doors! Trophy no 319 of 500. 10000 miles. 6 months tax. 16" Speedline Turini alloy wheels with 205/45 tyres. 10mm reduced ride height at the front vs. Cup suspension. Stiffer springs as used on the Cup...

Hi All I would like to start a thread about car mats, I don't have any decent ones for my Trophy yet and would like to know if anyone out there has any recommendations, as It's likely to be the only thing I'm buying for the car i would like them to be really nice. I understand that the...
