Hi all I had a quick search but couldn't find what I was looking for, so excuse the new thread. Is there a recommended set of milestones for services (minor and major)? My Trophy is sitting at just under 41,000 and the previous owner advised me to get her serviced next at around 45k...

Hi, I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better. The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use. The handling of both is great but the Megane might be a better car to live with day to day (if only it looked better)...

I live in Warwickshire, can anyone recommend an independant Renault specialist nearby for general repairs and servicing etc. Thanks.

Hello! My first post on here and was just hoping for a bit of information to help me along the way. Thinking of selling my 172 cup and wanting to upgrade to a 182 trophy, i've looked at alternatives and feel the 182 trophy would be a great choice for me - has anyone else had a similar...

my trophy is now due a major service due to age not millage. Renault say either 72,000 miles or 5 years wot ever comes sooner. my trophy only has 13,500 miles and Renault are saying i need a major service ! i personally think spending over £1000 for a major service for a car with only 13,500...

Guys, your thoughts on the below please.. My T was serviced a number of months ago and has since covered approximately 1100 miles. Today it went for its MOT and failed on a ball joint. So my questions are... - Would you have expected a significant failure to occur within the space of a number...

Whilst i'm aware that some of you perhaps think that the Cliosport forum is a bit 'childish', 'chavvy' or simply below you as a Trophy owner ... having read some of the threads on here since i've had mine, i have been constantly amazed by the lack of knowledge that 85% of this forums users...

Hey guys! I went along to the Rally Day in Castle Combe on the 18th. Bumped into a fellow Trophy owner and had a quick chat, don't think he was on the forum but told him sign up! Anyway was a great day out seeing loads of track day cars, 60's, 70's classic rally cars along with the Group B...

Nice to meet you Luke 335 at Silverstone last night.. Glad you were treating George Ks old Khumos with respect they deserve ;-) How was your vibration? Find the problem? You were going fairly slowly when I eased past you going into Vale.. sorry about that! This was 200Cs first and trial...

Don't absolutely need to get it done for another 5k but as i've only had the car a month or so i thought i might do it early for piece of mind. Renault Benfield - £849 inc vat with all the ancilliaries Wylam Renault - £1116! I know i could drive down to NorthWest but it would probably mean...

Spoke to Mark yesterday as i'm keen to purchase some of his stuff in the next couple of months. Whilst i was on the phone i thought it would be best to ask about a group buy - he seemed to think that 10% off would be ok for 10 confirmed orders. But im sure we could get something for 5 as well...

Has anyone read this months EVO? In the fast fleet section there is a write on how much all of Harrys cars cost him for servicing etc and apparently he has just had the cambelt done on the Trophy and it cost him £1206.55!?! Apparently more than his 550 Marrenello! He obviously doesnt come on...

I live in Sheffield and have a Clio Trophy and wanted to know if anyone can recommend a Renault dealer in the area? Got a funny knocking sound at the front end when the car is idle and want to get it checked out. Either main Renault dealer or specialist independent. Any help would be greatly...

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...
