I'm drowning in stupidity over there. Someone talk some sense into those people who think the Trophy would corner better if it didn't cock a rear wheel under hard braking and cornering. Include some pictures of FWD race cars doing the...
Hi all,
Its a long shot but I thought I would post anyway.
we are looking for a trackday project and have settled on a Clio Trophy,
we have an UK S2000 which we have for sale on Pistonheads, It has 36,000 miles and is in outstanding condition. We do have someone interested so it may be...
When pressing the clutch pedal down it feels like its scraping against something. It also makes a creaking noise. Has this happened to anyone else? Its been noticeable for a few weeks but has got worse over the past couple of days. Any ideas, ta.

My father is claiming there is a "weren't they great" comparative article about the Focus RS and the Trophy in there. He's getting on a bit, bless him, so he may be imagining it.

I shall find out on Saturday when I pop in.
Need to get a replacement front splitter, anyone know a good source for these? I'm pretty reluctant to pay the £120 Renault want for what is essentially just a piece of shaped black plastic and probably costs 50p to make.
Any help much appreciated, i'm going to France at the end of the...
Whilst fitting 2 new Miche's to the front of my car last night , i noticed that the front springs on are a bright yellow set of Eibach's? is this OE / standard equipment?
250 people contacted the show to report bonnet catch failures :shock:

When I was cleaning #488 the other day I noticed some sort of damage on the rear, offside damper but the rear nearside is fine.
The damp section is just water....I hope!

just decided to phone up and order the Spax lowering springs for the trophy (20mm) but they have been discontinued due to a lack of sales??? lol
Not being funny but i said to the guy that there are only a percentage of the 551 or so trophys in the world that are gonna want to lower them...
I've bought the Peugeot 106 Rallye LHD from Lee, should be delivered down in the next couple of days. With it's Bilsteins and Eibach upgrades it's kind of a spiritual (older) sister to the Trophy so I thought I'd post on here as most would appreciate the mods he's done to it.
Went to my local dealer few months back with a rattle coming from my exhaust, around the CAT area i thought. One of the technicians took the car for a road test, with me in the car, and couldn't hear anything. He even accused me of hearing things :evil: He came to the conclusion that the...

Hi,
Looking for some feedback and advice if possible, i'm thinking about taking the plunge and buying myself a nice low mileage Trophy but the one thing that concerns me is the possible depreciation on the car - ideally what i am looking for is a car thats going to hold its money fairly...

So I was chatting with Bernard Olivier the CEO of Renault Sport at the weekend (as one does :lol: ) and he brought up the subject of the Trophy dampers.
Apart from talking about how good they are he mentioned that the one negative is the need for them to be replaced / rebuilt more often...
Hi all,
In the run-up to 56 Plate I have been offered an increasing number of possible trade-ins by dealers. Many replicate existing stock. I've just repriced this car to sell. The link is below. The details are also in my weblog. If you or anyone want a bargain 'as-new' 2005/05 Clio 182...
Read this Q&A on the Renault Sport site:
=============================
jimbo666 asked: factory damper settings, clio trophy:
hi. i wonder if you could tell me how many turns of the dial from the hardest setting down to the softest setting to put back to the factory setting.
Allen Collen...
not including the wiper stalk conversion, which most of us would agree is the best pound for pound mod on a Trophy, what's the best, most cost effective mod you have made to your beloved?
