    New brakes

    old brakes on the trophy were absolutely shot, to be polite. I was amazed at the condition the discs were in after 16k miles. Decided to go for brembo max discs and redstuff pads for fast road use as the car wont ever see a track day. They have been on a couple of weeks and very impressed with...

    Engine lacks power - Any ideas?

    Does anyone know of a problem where the car seems to lack power. My car seems to lack power intermittently. At its worst it drives as if it has around 80 / 90 hp. It has no low down torque meaning it's most noticeable when pulling away or trying to overtake other traffic. It also runs a bit...

    Saw this on Pistonheads and thought it might be of interest to those with de-cats or those thinking about fitting de-cats and the possible emissions warning light problem this might invoke. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default ... ryId=16374

    No Seatbelt Warning

    My girlfriend has the slightly odd habit of putting her seatbelt on about a mile after the car has moved off (no, I have no idea why either). I know from driving other Clios that sitting in the driver’s seat with no seatbelt on quickly causes the car to start making noises of great...

    Corners and warnings...

    My trophy repeatedly flashed up warning lights on the track, through a long left-hand hairpin. I can't say exactly which lights because I couldn't look at the dash for long enough, all I know is that it only happened in the one corner and one of the lights was a stop light. Come out of the...

    Engine Warning light problems.

    Has anyone had problems with engine warning lights on these - now looking at a third visit to the dealer, each time the warning light begins to flash! This light is on the lower right of the dash - engine shape (without the STOP in it). Any past experiences or advice?

    Oxygen sensor

    Just had a trip to Nicolas Smith in Skipton as the orange light popped on again when coming home this morning! Well worth the hour travel (got stuck in mornig traffic) as they provided excellent service and solved the problem! Unlike the last stealer i went to :evil:.

    comment on the the new 1.6.

    Have this at the mo as mines in the steelers..... Not a bad car, underpowered is an understatement though - feels as quick as the 1.0 Nova I started driving with but significantly heavier. Still It's a school run car not a sports car so it's about spot on for that. The only thing, and it's...
