reviews

The sole reason i don't mind my T.V licence going up this year. Seems like ages since its been on. I've caught a few on UK Gold, but nothing better than a fresh new series. 5th gear doesn't seem to do it for me anymore, whether its the lovejoy chap or the new format i'm not sure...

Hi all, I'm trying to get hold of some EVO magazine articles. I'm looking for the M6 vs Trophy one and also the original 172 cup article (think it was the one that also featured the Focus RS etc??). I'm also interested in feature magazine reviews of the 182 (with cup pack of course). Can...

...what would it be, and why? No budget limits, but remember that although it will be given to you, you will have to fill it up with fuel and service it and this is your only car for the rest of your life, so if you EVER need a boot or have more than two friends, the Maccer isn't the obvious...

Hi all, I had an idea that I'd like to push through. I was hoping to start a thread in the future which contains PDF images of all of the Trophy reviews that currently exist (even if not in English). The first step is to list in this thread all of the reviews that have been read. I will...

Birthday at the weekend - and check out the pictures - had a Aston martin V8 Vantage to hoof in all weekend! What a car, more pictures to follow! :D

I've just booked the Trophy in for it's annual Permagard treatment at Canary Wharf (0207 473 0099) for the Saturday after next, I was told to bring it up any time in the morning and it will be 50% of the original price, which was £130, so £65 for another year's protection. I'm then...

Hello im new to this site I'm a member on the cliosport forum I currently own a low milage mk1 clio v6, im looking to sell it pretty soon had a few offers around £11.5- 12K, ive been drawn between two cars for a while now, one is trophy, because i love clios and i get the feeling the trophy...

Hi Everyone, I'm always nosing around on here and love the site, but I don't post very often. :oops: Hopefully this question is relevant to most standard trophy owners and I'm not the only one! I know that the brakes are the weakest link for the trophy, but I'm...

I just spotted this on the Renaultsport forum "panel of experts" bit: Eldorado asked: 182 service Am I right in saying that my 182 clio needs servicing either every 12k miles or every 12 months? If so, why was this changed from every 24 months? Isn't a service every year a little excessive...

Has anyone downloaded the new iTunes yet? It came out today and I have to say it's pretty awesome, the best new things are the iPod summary screen and the different viewtypes for the music library. The third option lets you rifle through the album covers like it's a duke box (now comes with...

Seeing as 65 is upon us & new 197 is getting good reviews. What price should i, if very fortunate, be able to pick up a good example for????????? No px just cash sale.............. Cheers.

Fact is you cant get them anymore. Well not new. And i want one. So i have decided to build one. Thats right im going to take a mk2 shell, buy a 182 engine and build my own Trophy. I thought this was a good a place as any to document my progress in this project. I intend to get hold of a...

Is there an EVO mag website? i cant find one, looking for the online review of the Trophy?

How long does this last - whats the benefit over a good quality wax?

Taking over from Pete G's post in the number plate thread, how does everyone use their ESP? (no responses about extra sensory perception please! :wink: ) Day to day driving, I just leave it on, you never know when you may need it's assitance (oil on the roads etc). When I'm driving hard...

At the moment I'm running standard discs and pads with up-rated fluid and hoses. I'm looking to upgrade the front pads for my trip to Abbeville in France with easytrack next month and have pretty much decided on the Ferodo DS2500. Is it also worth changing the discs at the same time for...

Why are people selling their trophies so soon? Is it due to common faults with the car? Just a thought.....

I would like to buy a couple of harnesses in preperation for the Trackday on the 4th... Being new to this, I was going to go fo rthis Sparco FIA approved set: http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ ... =S/H4704VB Sorry to ask silly questions but... 1) Is Sparco a good brand or is there...

i gather someone wants to have a race ./duel / comparison im up for a race on a track ,never done it before but after 6000 miles of driving my car i feel i can take up the challenge now that i understand the car and its limits. where and when ? preferably up north- my car prefers the cleaner...

I've found a guide to removing the front grill without removing the front bumper, just need to know the best and easiest way to run a cable from the engine bay to under the drivers side dash. Can anyone help - pics would be a bonus! 7MAT

With so many of us likely to buy Michelin Exalto 2 tyres as replacements for the ones already on our Trophy's, I thought it may be useful to start a thread with location/prices for the aid of all of us. So as the first entry I have found Exalto 2s at: Place: www.mytyres.co.uk Price...

please answer the above question? euge

Ok, as my post on Trophy review in CAR magazine got a bit off topic, I have started a new one! Here is a few reviews from the internet: Channel 4 - http://www.channel4.com/4car/road-tests ... rophy.html Channel 4 - http://www.channel4.com/4car/road-tests ... ort01.html Independent -...

+tive review from Jeremy.

Anyone know which issue it was in? Date and issue number would be greatly appreciated. Think it was the issue with the Astra VXR on the cover?

Just been to put some more miles on No:479 I know these are suposed to be great track cars (and I will hopefully find out next year) but WOW, this thing handles bumpy backroads like a fully prepped rally car. 8) The wheel and body control are excellent! for such a small car the handling...

I read many many posts about how amazing it handles and im in no doubt it does handle amazingly however how does it compare to a normal 182 with cup packs? or a 182 cup? Has anyone driven a normal or cup 182 on a track and also driven a trophy on the track? I was meant to have had a test...

Looking around at Normal Clio 182's 2nd hand that are anywhere between 9-18 months old with usually under 20k on the clock, considering the website quotes an on the road price of £14,800 ( i know they could be snapped up for about £11,500 from some internet sales site ) but to...
