Right, had a bit of an accident involving a 5 litre bottle of Comma's finest 5w/40 motorsport oil emptying itself into the boot of my car. Bugger. After trying to soak it up with rags and driving around for a few weeks with a permanent headache i have spent several hours using every detergent...

....Was it anyone from here? I guessing yes as it was sporting a Sanspeed & 'Ring sticker.

Due in next week. 2007/56 Megane R26 in Ultra Blue (It says Bleu Alpine on the computer so assuming it's Racing) standard spec with decals - only 11000 miles one owner. Offered at £12495. Please pm if of interest.

Has anyone had the Mark Fish exhaust mod done? - He said he'd done a couple of Trophies. Basically he cuts a 1/4 of the cat off and welds in a nice shiny, new, larger bit of tube to replace the crappy cat to exhaust joint - he reckons its good for 5 bhp?? Cost £125 - anyone think its worth...

Bit of a weird one, but thought it might be interesting to find out what everyone on here does for a living! I work for a Pharmaceutical Company....... (No its not another name for a drug dealer :lol: )

Hey guys, When I bought my Trophy a year ago the first thing I did was upgrade the brakes (to the little known CRN grooved discs and EBC RedStuff pads). I have to be honest they are actually very, very good (and I got them cheaper as they were part of a group buy in which my Good Lady also...

Hi All, Just bought a 1 owner 29k Mile Trophy. Paid 7k. From a chap just down the road from me. Will dig out the number tonight so i can update the register.. EDIT Number: 224 Car was in pretty poor condition for such low mileage, but has the full service history, and hpi clear, as well as a...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum :D apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong section... I'm on the lookout for a Trophy, and I am presently at the "scouring the classifieds" stage :lol: any advice on the best places to look ? I spotted this one on pistonheads, but after a quick search, I...

Right as an owner of a Trophy for the last few months we have all seen the horror stories surrounding the front dampers & the costs from the stealers involved in replacing them. Whilst looking into the dampers, you soon realise why they are 'so' good. Not your usual bolt on upgrade, but top...

Hello all, I am posting on here due to a serious problem I am having at the moment with Renault regarding the suspension on my Trophy. The front right damper has cracked causing it to leak and it therefore needs replacing. Unfortunately, both my dealership and Renault Customer Services have...

Hi Guys My trophy will soon be in need of some discs and pads. Now i was looking at getting the brembo max / ferrodo setup but the cost is over the £200 mark discs - £120 Pads - £92 £212, Is Yozzasport the best place to buy from or can i get them cheaper, GSF sell brembo max discs...

Guys, My car is permaguarded, thanks to Duffer987 and I continued this trend last year with the annual top up. I'm now unsure as to whether or not to continue.. I went to the local Lotus specialist today , seeking a quote to tidy up the bodywork and remedy the result of my front bumper...

Picked it up last week, and finally managed to give a clean this weekend. Although it looks uber clean, the paintwork has a fair ammount of swirls, and although I have clayed the car, it is still like sandpaper in some areas!. Perhaps a more aggressive 'clay' required? Anyway...

i might be thinking of buying some billet fast road cams for my trophy as k tech racing say it gives more torque and power gains of 12-15 bhp. does anybody have these fitted to there trophy or clio 172/182? would it affect the handling as i dont want to ruin a perfectly good handling car f

i know the clio is rather torqey but ive seen some stats with the clios torque rising to a massive 170 ibf with some mods on, what do you need to get this sort of figure?

Seen exiting the car parks at end of a good day of motorbike racing. Had a private plate.

Guys Been looking into upgrading my brakes, (even more so now because both front and rears are really worn), still mulling over whether i want a semi track set up and go down the Pagid blue/brembo HC set up, however I may want to just plump for a fast road use set up instead. I stumbled upon...

Am fitting new discs and pads all round. The front looks straighforward but need some help with the rears. Ive just ordered some new rear discs and a pair of bearings to go with them. Can the ABS rings from the old discs be taken off and used on the new ones?

By Rex, This is a piece I'm about to submit to Auto-Journals: Three RenaultSport cars in eight months: whilst that statistic may appear to be the symptom of a depreciation junkie, in truth it is my car history since September 2007. Ownership of my first Renault Sport, an Arctic Blue...

Have just spoken to Rentech in Portsmouth about my Trophys hard ride. I love the car but using it every day, sometimes its just too hard. They have said that they can remove the pins from the dampers which will make the ride softer, however they have not had any feed back from the few trophys...

Did anyone watch it??? At the end of the tunnels when she is sitting in the ultima, (I think), run she was talking to the camera and there was a Trophy parked behind her. Anyone on here want 2 own up? Think i might do it next year... It was from about 2 years ago like..

.....just going west bound under the railway bridge approching Filton Avenue. I was heading East to swap the Tropy for my 197 Cup........
