speed

picked it up Friday and absolutely loving it

Anybody have any ideas please? I've got a 182,well maintained and looked after. During acceleration,either moderate or heavy and at any speed (but more noticeable during motorway speeds) there is a definate noise (ticking/knocking) coming from (I think) the engine bay. I've changed belts...

At Oulton Park today nice car :)

Price adjusted as I have a number of other cars underwritten on the horizon and want a change too! Now £6895 as it is. It will need a cam belt but the aux belt and tensioners were replaced and could be refitted saving money. (Cam belt cost is £670 incl VAT both belts so likely £500) - The car...

Here are a couple of short videos of a recent track evening with the Clio 200. It was my third track event with the car so starting to get along quite well with it now. Great car for trackdays :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AncDVB4fx0I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHrZm8Ehfqo

Hi all, Have just purchased an RS192 Decat (£55 delivered!) which I'll be fitting soon. Have a Miltek catback also and the k-tec fault reader which I'll no doubt need! Question is... do I need some sort of fitting kit or should the original bolts/sprints/gasket be OK? Do I need exhaust paste...

Hi, Ive been reading about air filters for clio sports on web and threads on here but not sure which is best one. I currently have a itg panel filter in standard reno box. Its good and has made slight increase in engine response. But now noise. Does anyone know which is best air filter which...

Hey... Has anyone been having issues with their cruise control... Its not just one senario. If I try to reduce speed by pressing minus buttion it cuts it off. If im having to break and then want to resume the criuse speed it is not working (it freezes) . The only way to sort it is to turn the...

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? :)

well i have been a throphy owner for 2 days now and today its been dry enough to test the car on a few twisty sections i know like the back of my hand, i have found the trophy to feel a bit odd to be honest, on turn in it feels as tho the backend sways out but at the same time it stays planted...

Hi all, My car has felt a little "different" lately especially on the front passenger side. Doesn't seem to handle as confidently as it did and the front seems a little "bouncy". I can push the passenger side down and get it to bounce quite easily whereas the driver's side is solid and will...

........well after many weeks (or months :? ) I have finally got the parts on the cheap to improve the Trophy somewhat. Included in the morning is fitting of a full Janspeed system along with similar Mark Fish cat mod (have a metal fabricators 2 mins from my house) followed next week by a 60k...

Hi, Would anyone be interested in part exchanging a Trophy for a 2006 Forester Sti? The Trophy must have low mileage, FSH and be in mint condition. The Forester has done 22k miles, FSH, has just had the 3 year service in December (all fluids, spark plugs replaced etc) and needs nothing doing. It...

I have a mint set of these for sale which I have just taken off of my car. These have done very few miles and I have the orignal bill of sale and box. These cost £360 and I want £250 for them + P&P or collected from Berkshire. No offers thanks as these are a bargain. :)

I was stopped by the Police today, shortly after leaving work. I was not speeding, using my phone or driving erractically. My car is insured, MOT'ed and I have just put four new tyres on it. I own it, it is taxed and I had not been drinking. So why was I stopped? Because the Policeman in...

Hi, My and my mate were talking about the clio 182 trophy and he said that he thought the front splitter was just for show. Does anyone have a spec sheet or any details saying how much downforce is generated from the front splitter and rear spoiler over a standard renault sport clio without...

.........right after a few months of saving and getting the parts on the cheap I now have a Janspeed full system exhaust (with either the silenced on unsilenced mid section) and unsure how this system fits on to the Janspeed sports cat which I also have. Can anyone who knows a bit about these...

So I’m sat at a junction behind a Nissan Navara who decides it would be a great idea to start reversing. Despite having my horn held on for a good few seconds he still managed to crunch the front of my Trophy... =D> Needless to say a new bonnet and bumper are required. Then to add insult to...

Was meaning to put this up on the day but was way to busy! On the 14th feb 2009 I bought No.244 and a year on and money well spent in area's which needed :D but also more to come for summer time! The day I brought her home and shots of through the year..... On a run out with BenG Met up...

Just passing through and noticed some very useful discussions on this website so I thought I'd join! I hope I am not intruding! I own a 206 GTi 180 myself, lightly modified running about 177bhp at the moment (just under 150whp). I wanted to find out how 172/182 owners have found modification on...

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...

Only just noticed Michelin are doing Pilot Sport 3 tyres now anyone running these? http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/blog/1 ... t-sport-3/ :D

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...
