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...

i was going down you was going up in the fast lain ;)

Just came back from a few days in the Isle of Wight. Took the Trophy (filled with camping stuff) and left the wifes 182 FF at home. Spend most of the week dodging poor road repairs. Sometimes when it 'appears' perfectly flat that can be even worse. Makes me think its too hard for carry good...

Got my mate to take some better pics of the Trophy on Hardknott pass. I think youll like :D + the weather was better this time round. 8) http://s299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/BenGun03/

im dying to see what my trophy can do at the top end, i cant find anywhere that will let me do this, does bruntingthorpe or bedford autodome offer this?

Went for a drive today on some of the best roads ive ever drove on. Check out the road in the background of the pics. The camera phone pics make my car look pink.

##########14,200 ONO########## I am looking to get a clio trophy 182 to replace my Mazda, getting married next year so need the money. I am selling the best car I have ever owned as i am getting married and need the spare money. It is a mazda 3 MPS aero in Mica black. I am the second owner...

Trophy parked about 20 yards from mine at the car park near the end of the stage - had a http://www.cliotrophy.co.uk sticker in the rear window. Anyone?

Just been out checking my front tyres and they are wearing out more on the outside of the tyre. Not by much but easily noticable. Was wondering what this is down to, camber angle?(I had my camber adjusted to the factory setting by mark fish) Am doing lots of motorway miles so I guess this is...

i was on my way to the jet washers to clean the car and at the traffic lights lies a mclaren slr, i was hoping he'll go the back route which he did!, and i couldnt believe how good my car is, i took traction control off and its so much better, it turns in so much quicker and it didnt feel scary...

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...

as its a nice day i went for a drive around the countryside and thought about cutting a hole so my induction could breath better, do you think this could devalue the car and even damage the engine if it rains, dont want water sucking in the engine

Just had the 24,000 mile service carried out at Mark Fish, but with only 22k on the clock and he's found that the n/s lower ball joint is shot! Mark thinks it should be covered by the warranty but the by the reaction i received when booking the car in at Renault i'm not so sure they share his...

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?

the pics arnt great but its a start , it lookd very clean though

I spotted a Westy the same as the one you've been building up with two young gents in it that looked very pleased with themselves. It was just by the Shell garage just pasted Purley Cross. I was coming the other way in my RB 182. Was it you guys or was it a couple of other young gents...

keep hearing about the new road tax charges...does anyone know how much the trophy's road tax is likely to rise to..? should i be worried?

'Ring and Spa Euro-Trip (10th-12th May) 2008 Last weekend (10th-12th May 2008) Rebel did a Euro-trip to take in the delights of the 'Ring and Spa GP circuit. A big thanks goes out to one of our members, Craig, for sorting/organising this trip and for getting a great bunch of guys together...

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...

Ive noticed the drivers side is lower than the passengers side!? the suspension is still solid as a rock. ive recently had the passenger side damper changed. Does anyone on here have any idea on what could be causing this ? all comments greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, has anybody on here had an after market HID conversion kit fitted into their Trophy? If so...where did you put the ballasts :?:

I decided to remove the pin from the dampers today. After doing some research from various 'Damper pin removal mod' posts I thought id give it a go. I did the drivers side no problem but when i came to do the passengers side the grub screw would not move, i tried some WD40 but it never worked...

Hi...anyone out there got a 197/R27/197Cup yet. I was just wonering if they are fitted with a two-tone horn or just the feeble single tone fitted to the Trophy. I have a decent high pitched two-tone on my Trophy at the mo! My 197 cup is due next week so I want to know if i need to take the horns...

Andy Sharkyuk and I went to a Clio Sport meet today, and met some old and new friends. It wasnt really the best location to take pictures and it was a little cold so we decided a nice soft drink in the pub was called for. However on the way back we went home via the mountain roads and...

Yesterday morning i levered myself out of bed at 5.30 to make the 80 mile trip to Mark Fish to get; Goodridge Braided brake hoses, Pagid RS4-2 pads Brembo Max discs Combrake solid top mounts fitted Sachs dampers unpinned And camber (2 degrees) and alignment (10 minutes) dialed in...

Well, to start with it's amazing what you learn and quickly forget.... For about 10 minutes this morning everything to do with Suspension settings was crystal clear. Now though i can't remember anything other than the tit bit's i've spent months pondering from George, Donkey etc on here...

Anyone planning not selling their Trophy and keeping it mint for the long term. I had thought about selling mine and getting 8.5 plus but, On second thoughts a good Williams still makes 3k (1994) and my 1990 1.9 205GTI is worth 2k all day long. So 8500 today and keep it mint and it will...

love the back roads where i live!!! :D
