speed

A bit of a frivolous question/survey as I fancy a change during the T's spring clean. If money was no/not much of an object what would be your preferred exhaust. For me it would have to sound great, not too loud and be well made. And anyone who suggests A Yozza will be beaten around the head...

First off, apologies that this is my first ever post on here! I've done a lot of reading of the forums, but never had anything useful to say! The sad time has come to sell my Clio Trophy. It’s a beautiful car that never fails to put a smile on my face when I take it out for a drive at weekends...

Hi all, I've just purchased a 182 Trophy (No.382) today, rather a nice upgrade from my Fiat Seicento Sporting! It needs some work doing to make it perfect but it's brilliant to drive all the same :D However the battery light is on, as is the STOP light. At high revs this goes out so I believe...

Just started to notice this more recently. It's not really apparent at speed, only occasionally showing itself but at low speed going over speed bumps and the like there's an obvious creak/crash from the front left of the car. It's definitely the left as I've made sure to go over speed bumps...

Hi Folks. Can somebody tell me where I might be able to get a new front splitter from? And aprox how much it might be. I had a very slight mishap and removed the passenger side corner of mine. So I need to replace the hole thing. Ta.

Hi there. I recently bought #091 (Yeah I've read all the history but she's in good shape), and I'm shopping for tyres to fit the stock alloys. Can anyone tell me whether a 215/45/16 will work on them? I have done a bit of research and it seems to be fine but would be grateful if anyone has...

Hi - probably a dumb question, but if I want to get #478 feeling as "new" as I can, and i'm already all-in for a BG damper refurb, assume it makes sense to do the rears as well. Original sachs rears seem to be £105 as well - questions are: - Just the shocks, or make sense for Springs as well...

Hi there - after a very very long sales process, I am from last Wednesday the proud owner of Trophy #478. The register has more details, but quick summary is got the car, found a number of issues I should have spotted myself - the dealer agreed to take them on and the whole thing took 7 weeks...

........have had a very frustrating few weeks after the T was finally paid for outright. I think it's just been a month of 'doom' but hopefully the rectification and replacement of various components will see the T right as rain! It started off with a very continuous issue with my Janspeed...

With deep sorrow the time has come to sell my much loved Trophy as I am now in need of a 5 door car as we are expecting a new arrival in the family. The car has been very well maintained and drives absolutely superbly. I have owned the Trophy for 5 and a half years and have not had a single...

So, don't seem to be having much luck just now. One of my rear dampers packed in. New Sachs costing £250 from Renault! Rip off but hey ho. Now another issue that has started is a creaking coming from the front suspension. Only pronounced on full lock at low speeds. Strange feeling through the...

Hi Everyone, Just joined the forum and finally in a position to buy a 2nd car. Looking for a good condition Trophy (isn’t everyone!) and have a healthy budget to spend on the right car depending on condition, history etc. Ideally less then 60k miles. If anyone can be tempted to part with...

I am not sure whether there have been any group buys for Original Turini Wheels and/or OEM Centre Caps in the recent past. The reason is I have a slightly kerbed wheel so am looking for a replacement (set) and plan on keeping the kerbed wheel as a full-sized spare (in the boot) - hate those...

Hi All, Thought it was time to introduced myself...... I registerded in November 2011, after acquiring my first Clio V6 255 (Phase 2), my first Renault, with the intention of buying a 182 Trophy, but the purchase never happened. Now, a couple of other acquisitions later, I believe I have...

My T requires a new exhaust system as the back boxes and middle box are breaking down inside, corrosion etc. I do not want a loud exhaust I want something very similar to standard ! I know there's not much to gain but also something that will slightly boost performance, so a good exhaust...
