quick

as above, its tempting.

spotted in chasetown today

As I was moving cars about & an opportunity to take a quick pic presented itself. The Trophy next to my Lancia integrale EVO & our recently purchased EP3 Civic Type-R Premier Edition.

can anyone tell me where about the horn is in the engine bay? i wanted to try and clean the connectors, my horn works when the car is still but only when pressed on one side of steering wheel, but when moving, it never works. its quite annoying especially if someone is rolling back towards you...

Seeing as I had a nice 11 day weekend, thought I'd tidy up the rear of my Trophy. Heres a quick writeup of what I got up to today The Number plates had been bugging me for ages (well 4years almost lol) with the large garage logo and border, seeing as they had started to fade aswell decide to...

Just a quick wash and wax

Well even after nearly 6 years of ownership this little pocket rocket still surprises me. I know how quick it is on a B road, but in a straight line i always thought it slightly underpowered to take on the great and good of Germany's finest but boy was I wrong. 100 octane racing fuel on board...

55 plate trophy,with a srtipped out rear and harnessed up recaro's looked a clean example ,my trophy was parked up

Spring is here, time to get rid of the swirls from the harsh winter. I’ve used a DAS-6 a few times and achieved reasonable results but now I’ve decided to upgrade to rotary in the form of a cheap and cheerful Silverline. Due to time restrictions and it being my first time I’m only aiming for...

Did an oil change last night using my old Pela pump that draws the oil out through the dip stick hole. Bish, bash, bosh, all done in 20 minutes without touching a jack, axle stand or getting oil anywhere. Filled the car with 5l of Halfords 5/40 fully synth and since I needed new screw drivers...

Hi all I had a quick search but couldn't find what I was looking for, so excuse the new thread. Is there a recommended set of milestones for services (minor and major)? My Trophy is sitting at just under 41,000 and the previous owner advised me to get her serviced next at around 45k...

Hi Guys, Looking for some help... Last night I was driving my T and when changing gears it sounded like I was slipping the clutch (when I wasn’t) so I put it into neutral and the car revs didn’t drop they stayed at 2000rpm. I pulled into my drive way and it was still revving constantly at...

when i set off in my car yesterday i heard a crunch and then as i was driving saw something fall over from underneath. turns out it is top bit of my spring thats snapped off... :cry: has anyone ever had this happen? is it a product fault that renault will fix for free? also how much are...

Hi, Have just sent both front shocks over to BG Motorsport for refurb but discovered the dust boot/ gaiter is badly split on one side. Does anyone know the part number of a replacement?? Apparently it is a Renault part but a quick surf isnt coming up with anything...Cant read off any part...

Hi all, Took advantage of the weather today to give the car it's first mini-detail of the year: Snowfoamed 2bm Clayed SRP EGP Waxed with Zymol something-or-other etc... Spruces up alright tbh 8) Comments and criticism welcome. Cheers, Luke.

OK, so last night i got the Geo done by a mates garage. Yes, they are a bodyshop, but when you are the authorised repairer for Lotus, Aston, Ferrari, Lamborghini & Pagani, you probably know how to set up a clio lol ... So, effectively, since we fitted the front suspension, the Toe has been out...

Hi, I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better. The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use. The handling of both is great but the Megane might be a better car to live with day to day (if only it looked better)...

Hello All! Got the opportunity to clean the new Trophy or Rory as my 3 yr old daughter calls him, now been in my ownership for a week and loving it, completely standard, need some new exhaust brackets (wonky tail pipes) and the sachs rebuilding ASAP, apart from that its mint 1 owner, and been...

My trophy has gone in for its major service. It went to a garage rather than Renault them selves due to it costing nearly 500 pounds more at Renault. My trophy was having everything changed that was on the Renault major service check list and genuine Renault parts however i had a small leak of...

Just got myself a Trophy which has the Mark fish springs and koni rear shocks. Have played around with the settings on the shocks and as recommended elsewhere on here have set the rears at 1 and a quarter off full soft and the fronts at 22 clicks. I do a lot of road miles and am finding the...

My cat is going could I fit a de cat pipe on the trophy?

I've just been out and had a test drive in my first Trophy today. Unfortunately, I didn't note what number it is. Quick questions. 1-we have 3 auto cars at the moment and haven't driven a manual for a while. The clutch engaged/disengaged cleanly but did seem a bit heavy. 2-the steering wheel had...

Just a quick question just wounder if there is something wrong. When i go round a long scarp left had bend my oil light flicks on and sometimes a little too quick round a roundabout. I have checked its on the oil is on max on the dipstick. my old 1.2 16v clio use to do it but that had no oil in...

Any help please!! it only stopped working today when i started my 182 up :( had a long journey to work with the windows down and running out at lights to keep windscreen de-iced lol Am guessing a fuse but not checked yet? Is there anything else i should check for? Cheers Rick :mrgreen:

I want to lower my trophy not conpletly slamed but just a bit lower wats the best springs to buy and where to get them from?

For those of you who don't use cliosport, thought i'd post up my new race car for this season for you to have a look at. Picked it up at the weekend, ex 2006 TCR Onslow-cole Championship winning car. Driven it the grand total of about 20 yards so far, on and off the trailer and into the garage...

Hi i have always said on all my cars i have owned if engine required major repair i.e. piston bent valve etc.. I would put uprated internals in and bolt a turbo on (if only it was that easy:-)) Just woundered wat peoples views are on turbo trophy? (Just to add there is nothing wrong with the...

best place to buy them and people best quotes? Anyone recently bought these?

Having had a clio mk3 1.2 TCE for a while, then moving on to a Lupo Gti for 18 months, I've now made a return to clio ownership with Trophy (No.248)... Bought it from a guy in Grantham not too far from me, it was his wifes run around and has only covered 22k, already had the dampers refurbished...
