I have two OMP bucket seats in my Trophy at the moment, but am considering going back to the standard recaros because I currently use my car mainly on the road.
Would anyone be interested in swapping their recaros for my buckets?
They are in very good condition and come with seat subframe...
Hello all,
My Recaros have always needed a bit of a whack to get the back down after they have been tipped forward to let someone in or out of th eback seats, but this morning I was trying to get the passenger seat back and when it finally went I realised that the seat is now loose on the rails...
I have a swiss trophy and the previous owner removed the standard recaros to fit bucket seats.
I am now considering taking the buckets out and fitting the recaro seats again (the buckets won't pass the ultra stringent Swiss version of an MOT which is due soon).
However, the Swiss edition came...
I've never been happy with the seating position due to the height the Recaros are mounted at so I took the passenger seat out at the weekend to see if anything could be done to lower it.
It appears that the seat height could be lowered by a couple of inches by swapping the mounting frames for...

..........hi all.
Wondering what the features are over the 182 CUP or 172 CUP?
Have 2 for sale locally and seems the right time to buy.
Your thoughts?
Thanks
Can this be a vote on the two cars above. It is not a discussion on which is better. Simply answer 197 or Trophy.
Please don't just pick a trophy because you have one and are unable to see past it (although it is a great little car).
Thank you.

Just testing the water but mrs Tonto has decided she wants to get rid of the Trophy :( .
But she has said she would take a Megane as the replacement :(
So if anyones potentially looking to swap a nice R26 perferably black or white with Recaros in the next few months then pop me a PM...

The Recaros look like they have never been sat in.

Hi everyone, I'm a 23yr old Belgian guy, I've always adored the Trophy since I first read about it in Evo. Some things kept me from buying though, as a student my budget is quite limited (low GBP came to the rescue), the fact that it'll be RHD (prepared to live with that) but most of all... I'm...
Greetings!
I have found a Trophy for sale for £7485 with 48,911 miles on the clock.
In your opinions what should I be paying for it and is that mileage too high?
Also, should I expect the belts to be changed already?
Cheers.
My mate has a clio 172 and he read that there is a way of finding out if you have automatic lights!
When you turn the icnition on, turn your side lights on and offf twice, if it beebs once they are off and if it beebs twice they are on,

Hi all,
Firstly, does anyone know whether the key fobs will be being stocked again, as I would be keen on getting one.

I hate the cup rear bench and want something a bit nicer looking.
I presume the 172 & 182 leather seats will fit straight in? Guess that as with most cars, the split/fold system has a bit that bolts to the car where the seats split, is there provision for all of this?
Which seats match the...
