Now don't shoot me, but I'm a Civic Type R driver, had one for 4 years and looking for a change.
Been considering a cup for a while, and now that Trophies are starting to 'possibly' fall into my price range, I thought I'd do some research!
Now there's no doubting the looks, performance...
Hello all, I have just bought a Trophy. The previous owner didn't look after it too well and I am left giving it a bit of TLC. One problem is that the cat has a crack in it and its not covered under warranty. Renault service centre want £800 to replace it - I can't afford this and I'm taking...
Ok so scanning the news of the world for general celebs with there norks out and came across an article written by some cunt callled JAMES FAXALL you just read the article and you will discover that well jamie faxall really knows F*U*C*ksall
It's that time - have just passed 12k miles and it's due a service. Have booked it in with Masters of Shirley near Croydon - they reckon about 150 notes. Although I live in Brighton I'm going there because a) they're really nice people and b) I took 425 to the local Brighton dealer to get some...

Don't know whether anyone else has spotted this yet, but you're looking at a hundred quid off if 20 peeps put there hands up for one.
I'm gonna take the plunge as I don't think I can stretch to the Orbisoud!
Over on cliosport.net I have read many threads that describe the 182’s 5K kick.
I had often thought that these threads over hyped the kick as I can only just feel an increase at 5200 revs in my Trophy, but recently I drove Steve’s (sm wrc) 182 and his car really does kick...
(Decat + std exhaust)
Has anyone done this?
Thoughts? as this may be my next mod on the cheap...cant afford the sports cat (lol)
Ive read it frees up the exhaust flow, increases noise etc etc
Does anyone know what the fine would be if stopped at the road..(not very likely tho?)
I've been busy today, needed to give the car it's annual once over with the porter cable...

Already planning next car, won't be for a while yet. The thing with having the trophy is because it does things so well, i.e great handling, quick, pretty practical, comfortable with toys. It makes thinking about a new car pretty difficult. But I think i've narrowed it down to these 2. Your...

Was looking at the Oribsoud exhaust recently and it got me thinking... what benefit would it offer, say, a Janspeed or Ktec unit? It is afterall almost £300 more expensive...

Is the Renault Sport badge standard on the back of the Trophy? Was just looking at OliS' photos at Bedford at noticed the itallic 'Sport' badge under the Renault badge on the back. I have the 'Renault' part but not the 'Sport' part.

The recent posts about the types of chips/ecu that you can get for the Trophy has got me very interested in the subject. Trying to work out what is the best of the options available.
The chips/ecu's I know about so far are as follows:
Replacement ECU with R'sport map - The type that Nik...
I quite fancy a replacement Cat Back system, I think the trophy could have a far nicer bark to it then the standard exhaust, it sounds way too 'mechanical' at the moment.
I've been looking around and it seems a lot of people recommend ProSpeed. I saw GaryG's 182 at the Bedford trackday and it...
Hi all.
I'm seriously thinking about buying a Trophy in the next couple of months or so when the cash comes through and have a few questions. As always, after getting used to a car we start craving more power, however, with this car I don't think I'd go as far as increasing engine capacity or...
Another offer for you guys,

On the way home this evening I had a WRX (MY01) try to overtake me (not on a motorway).
Through the bends he had no chance... and at the lights he wound down his window to tell me how shocked he was!!
