Hi, interested in buying your old car.
In fact going to see it in a couple of days.
Just wondering if you have anything good or bad to say about it.
The current owner said you took good care and is infact a good un.
Anyone know anything about it please?
I'm currently having my dampers refurbished and had a snapped spring so I'm looking at getting some alternatives as replacements from Renault are a shocking price. I was recommended the Sportline Springs by Yozzasport but some other people think they will lower the car by up to 50mm?!
Has...
Well seeing as the weather was to nice just to sit in me and a mate decided to test out my recently recon'd dampers thanks to BG Motorsport, by doing the ButterTubs pass and then heading to Ribble Head Viaduct, Thwaite, Haws then Ingelton and back home. It was a fantasic drive out and the Trophy...
If i'm quite honest, I don't know much about how to maintain a car myself...always having to get my mates and their tools to help me out. Which isn't really a problem, but I want to start getting more involved. (bikes not a problem..but cars..i'm lost)
I bought my Trophy around June time with...
was wondering if you can get a few things that I need to getting it looking perfect
1) Were there any trophy car mats made, or just the regular renaultsport clio ones?
2) Can you get the transfers for the wheels, the speedline turini ones. Mine must've had a refurb and they're missing from the...
Two cracking results for Renault, Trophy came joint 7th with Ferrari F50 and R26.R 4th!
One bug-bear i have though is they talk about a 'layer of squidge' in the Trophy's suspension leading to it not feeling very honed and taught, and i quote 'ooldes of pitch and roll'... WTF!! I put it to them...

time may be up for #356
just recently got married and possibly 356 may now be a little to small for our needs. The wife has her heart set on me getting a 330CI or 330 convertible, cos it looks "posh", and i was thinking of going for a 230 R26.
BUT....... the question I want to throw out there...
Just bought some of that meguirs clay and gave it a quick whirl on a small bit of the roof.
On close inpsection of said bit there are small imperfections (like little patches - looks like a stain) which can only be seen from a certain angle.
Any ideas what they are and how to get them out?
I had an amazing opportunity today! driving along in Windsor and i saw a Mclaren Merc SLR Stirling Moss, this one happen to be the first one of the production line and the one taken to Goodwood Festival of Speed this yeah........... yes that means it was the one Stirling Moss himself drove up...
evening, ok could someone do the turnis in Gloss Black , leave the diamonds.

then fluro green just for giggles
Sadly a change in work circumstances saw me part with the S2000 after a brief ownership... doubling the amount of miles I do and getting an offer too good to refuse on the Honda (selling for a good profit having done 5k miles :D ) has seen me pick up this :
Full John Cooper Works Body...
A nice clean trophy pulled out in front of me just by the common and turned off into rusthall. Who was it?
We must have 5 owners within a small area, we should get together for a photoshoot soon. One of my mates is a proper pro photographer and wants to do some more experimental stuff with...

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...

If you buy this mag, you'll soon read that Harry's T has had re-furbed front shocks. Seems the front as "corkscrewing". One had lost it's gas the other had a slight oil leak. His cars only done 16000 miles. Am guessing a lot of those were hard miles?!
Another great meet. Not as much convoy driving as the previous few outings but a good opportunity to chat and also to get some passenger rides! (Big thanks to Dallas for negotiating the tight gaps, 4 up in the blue barge! Also to Jules and Luke for back to back Orb race/soft comparisons!).
Here...
I had to do a double take when I saw a Trophy parked outside the offices where I work - wondering for a moment if in fact I hadn't parked my car in the staff car park at all, but in the public car park outside the front. Then I noticed the different numberplate (LY05 *** I think).
I considered...
Just come back from a cracking weekend on the Isle of Man so much so we will go back again soon. So if you ever get the chance go :D
We were very lucky with the weather sunshine all weekend. The 1st time we crossed the mountian section it was foggy but soon cleared up later in the day when we...
I am looking to buy a Trophy and wonder does anyone have knowledge of car No. 232/500?
I went to see this car yesterday at a local used car dealer and have a few concerns. The dealer is fitting new rear discs and shockers due to wear and tear (fairly common at this milage I understand) however...
Its my birthday next month and im treating myself to a new exhaust (any excuse) but I cant decide which one to go for, Yozzasport or RS192?
Personally I love the sound of the Yozza but dont know whether ill be able to put up with the immense noise that it makes. Whichever one I buy will be a...
I know a few on here have fitted compbrake STM's and I need some advice on which order to fit each part.
These are from KTR but im pretty sure there identical.

Not a recent spot, ive just been going through some old photo's and wondered if this one was registered at all not sure which number it is spotted it twice in tesco's Lincoln but never saw the owner.
