I hate those poxy trumpetty things, sounds like a swarm of bees and drives me round the bend! Don't normally watch football; no wonder :-(

Hey guys, The Sachs are coming off '380' later as they're booked in with Ben on the 8th. I've noticed a lot of people saying that they've had the struts un-pinned to allow adjustment to the damping. I've had a quote of £25.00 each + vat, is it worth me getting this done while they're away?

What is there that should be replaced on the front suspension assembly same time when getting the dampers refurbished? Rubber mounts etc. Anyone got renault part numbers?

Morning, Who was the chap I spoke to at the ring at the weekend. Sorry I never caught your name. Good to have a quick breif chat :mrgreen:

I believe you can get a (?) mechanical Quaiffe diff fitted to a 182...? Around £1000 fitted. Meant to be a very useful mod. Has anyone got any experience/knowledge?

Hey guys, I have 2 brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres for sale to fit 205 / 55 16" (speed: W weight: 91) these are designed to fit Clio sports or anything of the above size. Only selling as I bought them for a FF 182 which I use to have and I never got round to fitting them and because I'd like...

Interesting article in the June magazine comparing the 200 cup and the 172 cup; 200 was 1.5 secs a lap quicker due to its "trick front suspension system and brakes" but the 172 was "more fun" ( I paraphrase). I believe Mr Metcalfe, who has some standing within said mag, owns a Trophy; I wonder...

Hi, Having just completed a 1,000 miles since buying Trophy 383 from pm_air I thought it about time I shared my initial thoughts: Having wanted a Trophy since they first came out I have to say the car is great fun and lives up to the hype. I came close to buying one new to replace my Elise...

Spotted this morning 8.30am, and another number of times on my way to work in and around ellesmere.

Hey, Does anyone know where the cheapest place to get rear suspension for trophy part number 8200 519 954. I am finding it difficult to find someone that stocks them. jsthomson

I'm popping over to the IOM tomorrow for a long weekend with some friends. Just wondering if there are any Trophy's that live over there? :)

I've just suffered a broken front spring and have decided to send both front Sachs dampers down to BG Motorsport at Silverstone for a rebuild while they are off. BG Motorsport are Eibach dealers so it would be useful if I could provide the Eibach Part No. to them rather than the Renault No...

My auntie and uncle came down yesterday for some easter dinner and my uncle was saying how nice the trophy looked how shiny it was :lol: My cousin has a focus ST 07/57 totally standard. Bought it brand new - ......... well my uncle was going on about that he is wanting to sell it to buy a...

hi folks, im currently looking for a garage who can do a cambelt change aswell as the water pump and auxillary belt, can anyone recommend a garage that is in the midlands area please i dont fancy going to a main dealer cause im expeced to have to sell a kidney to fund the repair bill already...

I'm heading up there this weekend for a long weekend with the GF. Anyone know of any decent roads around there that I may accidentaly have to take a de-tour too... :wink:

Saw you parked in Bright Hill car park. In fact I parked almost next to you with mine. Only the 3rd one I've seen in two and a half years. Nice exhaust you've got which one is it?

Told you I had a strange wheel question.... The Ski season's just about over now here (maybe one or two more chances but it's getting warm now) - I read in the owners manual that one cannot fit Snow Chains to the Trophy (or the 182 either I think), this is a bummer if I want to use the T to go...

Hi all, Can't quite believe i am doing this, but 007 and i will very very sadly have to part company. Reason being that the Mrs and i are saving for a new house, she has sold her Mini and is saving like mad and truth be told me keeping a 2.0 hot hatch isn't going down all that well. I also have...

I wonder if it's unavoidable?? - I seem to always get it at full bore acceleration, 2nd and 3rd gear, after 5 or 6k; I've got new PE2's and the geometry is all standard (today) - admittedly the roads are a bit cold but dry.... I'm doing the top mounts and camber bolts this weekend after which...

I have a problem with it. When I go round a corner it feels quite light and tends to understeer and feel light at the front end. Furthermore if I push even slightly more the back end comes round. At first I thought I had it wrong but as daft as it sounds I went out to see if I did and provoke...

Hello. Me and Chris met up today and went for a drive around the Lakes, It was a bit of a nightmare as some of the Passes were shut, including Honister Pass but we decided to drive it anyways. 8) Cheers Ben.

Hi all, I currently drive a DC5 which I'll shortly be selling. One of my reasons for selling is the suspension which, though wonderful on smooth roads, is an absolute nightmare on my daily commute due to the quality of the roads near me. After 18months of ownership I'm ready to move on. I...

Do we need more? It's become clear over the last year or so that from the list of moderators only Cue actively visits let alone moderates the site and it seems even he is not able to come on as much as he once did. That's not to imply any criticism, people move on, have different priorities etc...

I loved the Trophy and thoroughly enjoyed my 12 months with it, but one lazy Saturday afternoon I read about the Clio 200's top-5 finish in eCOTY and casually trundled down to the local Renault Garage to see what all the fuss was about. Three days later I placed my order. There has been a lot...

Hi everyone, just bought a T last week and am getting to know it a bit (and modding it too); have most info I need thanks to the forum but have a silly question - what is the little blob beneath the passenger side door mirror ? - looks like some sort of sensor but I'm not sure.... So far I've...

Am wanting to spend a day on 007 in the next few weeks, a kind of 'spring clean' that i put all of my car through in Feb/March, especially now the roads seem a bit tidier after all the kacky weather. I valeted professionally for 6 years, but that was about 5 years ago now so i am a bit out of...
