So this is my latest baby... a Liquid Yellow 182 with a mere 27k on the clock when I picked it up. I love the colour so couldn't resist another one and decided as my use of car is less for commuting and more for fun to make it the perfect spec (in my eyes)...
Started with a visit to Charlie @...
Interesting article in the June magazine comparing the 200 cup and the 172 cup; 200 was 1.5 secs a lap quicker due to its "trick front suspension system and brakes" but the 172 was "more fun" ( I paraphrase). I believe Mr Metcalfe, who has some standing within said mag, owns a Trophy; I wonder...
Here i have for sale a set of new ferodo DS2500 sports pads for clio 172/182.. brought for my twingo 133 in the belif that they fitted but unfortuantly they dont.. so here they are for sale
£110 including P&P
I know the going rate for a good one not needing any work is about £7500 and I have the cash.
Please only contact me if you are selling a standard trophy with a maximum of 2 owners so that I can personally verify every detail of the car, from the original purchase invoice and PDi through to the...
Been looking forward to this for some time now. Xbox live multiplayer is fantastic. Some people who have ordered online could see the game on Wednesday.

The steering wheel in my Trophy has begun to melt and I'm considering my options.
I'd prefer to stick with a Renault wheel so that I can retain the cruise control functionality so re-covering is one option, but at the same time I'd prefer a smaller wheel.
I'm aware that the 197/200 wheel...
Yes tread shuffle not truffle shuffle! :lol:
Well my question is, is there such a thing? If so what does it mean!
I ask because had the Trophy booked in yesterday as im noticing small knocking noise when moving the steering wheel ever so slightly from side to side! You can also feel it...
A couple of sundays back Steve was kind enough to take me out for a run in his cup and show me why he decided to change from the trophy.. and then passed over to me for some fun down the the rs clios favourite territory the bumpy back roads/lanes, and now the chassis and the size over the trophy...
Does anyone know whether 182 Cup dampers will fit a Trophy? Reason I ask is that my nearside front damper has a loose remote reservoir and has leaked oil and is therefore shot. My car has done only 31000 miles. I've only a few days left of my warranty (end of Aug, great timing!!) and will try...
I've been told that it's reasonable to swap the front set of wheels for the back set of wheels in the interest of 'cough' preserving consistent tyre wear.
While I appreciate this is potentially a pikey way to go on tyres, it may make some sense as it means you can manage to have 4 newtyres...
Hello all, sorry it's been a while but all i've been doing is driving, I've put 2000 on the clock in 3 weeks. I had to before anyone starts, I blame tha VW add about "have you ever just gone for a night drive".
Anyway putting a new stereo in the car and was wondering if there was anything that...
This just in my inbox. New Clio 197 incl Metallic for £13995 OTR with 12m RFL. There's a six week delivery time, any further info just pm me. One or two have swapped Trophy or 182 Cup for 197 and I'd always look at a p/x. Cheers, Steve.
As posted before i'm about to buy a Trophy and have been trying to look ahead a year or two and see what the Trophy is likely to be worth and how the introduction of the 197 Cup or Trophy might affect its values. In the end i've ended up with more questions than answers and simply havent been...

No one else will talk about so I will.
I HATE IT, It looks like the love child of the Modus and the Megane oh and the local inbred postman for a bit of good luck.
I am sure some poor sods will go out and buy one.
Be intresting to see what the RS will be like and...
