Hi guys.
Been a busy few weeks so not been on for while!
I've been thinking about replacing the Clio, and amoung the current selection of contenders is the E39 M5. Yes, I know its a BMW... Wankers, no indicators blah blah etc, (I'd say the same..). They are a very good car, in all areas, and...
Hey guys,
Just wondering if you have any experience of having your paint chips removed with either a scratch/chip removal service or even a DIY kit?
I've been thinking about getting a few done on my car and just wanted to know your thoughts on these companies that claim they can make it as...
Hi, I'm in need of a standard Trophy rear spring for my car ASAP. I'll buy a pair at the right price as I doubt anyone selling them would want one odd one left.
Also after either a good standard cat back exhaust section or possibly a used s/s system.
If you can help, give me a ring on...
Hi all,
I’m currently going through redundancy at work and as a result, I am looking to sell my Trophy to get something cheaper and more practical. As you will see below, the car has never gone short. I am in two minds about selling it and will be genuinely sad to see it go.
Car & Service...
Hi guys I'm back in a Renault now not a trophy but a LY 182. Can you still buy orbisound exhausts and if so where from?
The other question is are they worth it over a miltek?
Thanks
Trying to track down the cause, hoping someone else can offer a potential cause. For the last year I would say my T has handled slightly off. The positive feel to the steering has gone and I want to try and get this back.
So far I have had the following done on the car:
- Lower suspension...
Im looking for a set of OZ F1's pref 15 for my 182, if anyones got a set give us a shout.
Asap as im trying to do a sprint at Angelsey in the middle of Oct
Thanks
Decided to strip all the back of my newly finished clio TT and so need to sell the back seats which i brought a year of so ago from a 182... Looking for £80 + delivery or can pick up from me. I cover a fairly large area of the south from hertfordshire down to Berkshire way.
Many thanks
David
Whilst i'm aware that some of you perhaps think that the Cliosport forum is a bit 'childish', 'chavvy' or simply below you as a Trophy owner ... having read some of the threads on here since i've had mine, i have been constantly amazed by the lack of knowledge that 85% of this forums users...

Right I will get straight to the point as I have a list; I have owned my Trophy for now 2 months and when purchased I had timing belts done and an oil and filter change done. This weekend however I was doing a gearbox change and checked the oil now the dipstick read ½ litre low and when I...
Hey guys! I went along to the Rally Day in Castle Combe on the 18th. Bumped into a fellow Trophy owner and had a quick chat, don't think he was on the forum but told him sign up! Anyway was a great day out seeing loads of track day cars, 60's, 70's classic rally cars along with the Group B...
Looking at a locally advertised Trophy for sale, just wondering if anyone knew anything about this car, car is number 212, the number plate is being swapped over from T666 PHY to DX55 WEU.
Thanks, Mark.
Hi folks,
not posted on here for ages. Just a bought a cheap runaround so can keep the t for high days and holidays.
Used her for the first time in three weeks today and wow what a car.
My runaround is a 1.4 and the t feels so fast and just wants you to give it more and more. Dont think you...
Basically what i was wondering is how many people use their Trophy for what it was primarily designed for?, and im not necessarily talking about track days but also just goin out for a pointless drive or a bit of a blast on your favourite stretch of road. As daft as it sounds i sometimes feel a...
just taken the T for its MOT and was gutted to realise it had failed on a broken rear spring :( just the point on the end of the bottom coil. Rang my local Renault dealer up for a price and was told that my car had the 'Extreme Pack' on it, and it would be £138+vat #-o . Now i have 2 questions...

hi folks something strange happened whilest driving the trophy tonight, basicly was just driving normally along around 40mph when the oil light on the dash flashed up with the words STOP NOW, anyways i stopped and thought no way has the oil ran out as i had checked it a week or so ago, i checked...
At what miles does the "main" cambelt service usually flash up on a T? i don't mean what do you guys do it but if you were going by Renault reccomendations?
i know im a new member but ive been on here for about a year just looking in every now and then,

£20 delivered.
PM me for interest.
Anyone decided to replace the clutch yet??
50 k on mine, no probs other than it squeaks when it's hot on the track ( never on the road) - thinking of doing it anyhow.
Any thoughts, 5 years now folks: it's about time maybe????
Hi everyone, new here and this is my first post...
2 days ago I had an arguement with a dear and smashed my nearside headlight..Went to the main dealer for a replacement and was quoted £430 for my troubles..I told them politely to erm..keep it until I looked around to see if I could get one any...
