Last week I went to the Apline Renault factory in Dieppe, France, where they built the Renault Sport Clio and Mégane. Here are some pictures.

Have you guys seen this? That's one damn fast cheap clio!!!! http://videos.streetfire.net/video/7D99C389-064F-4C06-9A76-2F35CCBF216C.htm

(swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) (swear) Fucking van drivers should all be killed, driving to work this morning on a particularly narrow and horrible bit of road (the start of the C7 to Newhaven from the Kingston-near-Lewes Roundabout) and a...

I have been offered a Clio 182 Cup in French Racing Blue, nothing spectacular about that apart from it has Alonso's signature on the dashboard strip that says 'Airbag'. It's not worth any more to me but thought I'd ask your guys opinion. Added value, or vandalism? He has an erratic signature...

hi guys just joined thought id say hello :D

Got these from Nik. Perfect for you Trophy trackday fans! Set of 4 x 15inch 2004 Clio Dynamique 'Alium' wheels fitted with scrubbed Michelin racing slicks. The wheels are in as new condition, and were individually boxed parts so have never been driven on a car. No center caps are included...

Who is going to the Festival of Speed this year? I'm only going on the Friday (7th July) unfortunately, as it's my girlfriends birthday on the Saturday and I'm driving down to France. It would be good if a few of us from the south (or anywhere) could meet up on the way, have a bit of a...

Any one going this year? I'm heading down, but there's a good chance No. 99 won't be going as I should have access to a load lugging 2.8 V6 A4 Avant Quattro to get us there with everything we need! Not really Trophy related, but this forum gets more activity than any others!!

Whats everyone using ? ( assuming youve worn out the originals) Is the best option to stick to the pilots or is there anything else worth a look ? ive done the usual searches mytryes , blackcircles for prices just wanted to see if anyone is using anything different !

So Oliie's post about trackday rims and tyres got me thinking that I should probably do the same thing and get a set of trackday tyres to stop me killing a set of road tyres every other trackday. The tyres that I have read the most about on this forum are the Kumho V70A's, and I just want to see...

anyone else thought of changing the bonnet for something lighter like carbon fibre - obviously having it painted in capsicum.... must save a kilo or 2...

I am considering a track day but really think it would be more economical in the long run to buy a set of dedicated track rims/tyres. Does anyone know if there is a set going cheaply anywhere? Also do I have to stick with the same dimensions as the current rim? If I change slightly I am...

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...

This a bit a long post, apologies but hopefully of interest to more than just me :) So I read all of http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic ... 74&start=0 very interesting, noting the follwing I am considering going for the 12mm bolts (-2 deg, 0.00 toe-out) but am now thinking about...

After an excellent few days out in Germany, i thought i'd post the pics taken over the weekend. http://crowspeed.net/photos/ringtrip06/album/

Ive noticed something when i break going round a medium corner at around 70 -80mph...not a harsh break a general one, the back end swings up and makes me very nervous to thrash the fiesty beast.....dosent do it as much on right handers. i never noticed befor but i had a full set of £65 budget...

Ok, I currently own a S2 106 Rallye. Absolutly love the car to bits, I've owned it for 3 and a half years and is standard on the outside (including the white steelies) and I have a straight through exhaust + de-cat. I've toyed with getting something faster for a few months now, but I don't...

Is it possible to just walk in a buy stuff over the counter or its it strictly mail order!? I wanne get a pipercross kit put in, and wondered if they would do it on the spot for me so i could drive home with it in (tup)

Aloha everyone... Was looking at the Oribsoud exhaust recently and it got me thinking... what benefit would it offer, say, a Janspeed or Ktec unit? It is afterall almost £300 more expensive... Thoughts? I am going down the road of marketing strategy but havn't heard/seen one in...

How many people pay for it? If not why not? Does your normal policy cover you? Are you so rich it doesn't matter? I'm interested because I would never consider going out on the track with cover, but some people seem to be very blase. From various people I've heard it suggested that all you...

Tempted with a set of Rota Grids 16 inch (et40) My current rims are et43 and I've had Superleggera's (et38) in the past so the offset shouldn't be an issue for me (I hope) I know that Gary had some issues with his so I'm a little bit unsure.
