I have a decat and a Janspeed cat back exhaust and lately the Trophy backfires (pops and bangs) on a cold start. Does anyone else get this or is mine the first? I have noticed the exhaust sounding louder when driving so it maybe that the stuffing from the box has almost gone completly... hence...
I say Alpina Roadster 3.4 Lux, you say.....???
:)
Just wondering people's thoughts of a Z4 Alpina. I have recently come to research a bit about them and they seem like a fantastic car. However I am aware some people wouldn't be seen dead in one... is that the case here too?
Two...
Hello
My passenger seat is rattling like mad and only seems to stop when someone over ten stone sits in it!!
Not only rattling but is loose - I have taken to one dealer and they have told me this is normal! I don't agree.
I ve heard whispers that you should get this sorted and is...

Hi all,
Firstly let me start by saying hello to you all and congratulations on an excellent informative and interesting website.
We are in the proccess of searching for a 182 Trophy in or reasonably close to Hertfordshire hoping to pay less than £10k. I was firstly after a little bit of...
Hi all - been looking to invest in a trophy for some time, but due to my age (22) havent really been able to afford the insurance, tax, servicing, etc.
However the time has come to go all out and get me one of these cracking little cars.
About to pick up number 31 tomorrow which is as...
Coming up for my 24K service and just wanted to know where people near me went. I live near stansted.
All I seem to hear is ren-tech, ren-tech, but there is no way im going to portsmoth to service my car! well maybe lol
Cheers
I've never suffered from the infamous 182 top mount knock, but a couple of days ago my Trophy started making a knocking noise when maneuvering at slow speeds. I assumed this was the knock, and thought nothing of it, but it has been getting progressively worse since then.
The knock was then...
Hello all,
I'm David and I'm thinking of getting a Clio Trophy. :) I currently drive an Audi TT Quattro Sport (that I've only owned for six weeks!) and before that I had a Ford Focus RS. I keep reading about how great the Trophy is and it's gradually drawing me in. I suspect I could have a...

New into stock, 2003/53 Plate Clio 172 in Titanium Silver. Very clean and well maintained with 33861 miles. Recent GDI fast road front discs and pads. Recent new Continental front tyres. These are well priced in comparison to competition. £7295 incl 12m Warranty...
My Trophy has developed a subtle engine fault over the last couple of months. There is a distinct missfire at 2500 RPM (in neutral) and has become a little sluggish under acceleration, especially from lower revs. It sounds rough too. I have also noticed a rumble, in tick-over, from the cambelt...
I currently run a Saab 9-3 and normally lurk on Scoobynet, have had a few sportier cars such as a Volvo T5, Fiat Coupe Turbo, Golf GTI's, Rover BRM etc.
My Saab is nearing 100,000 and hasn't got aircon so I fancy a change, I have been eyeing up the 172 and 182 for years now, especially when...

(finally) Picked up No250 today and drove it home the long way from Essex to Surrey, avoided the M25 as much as possible, and then spent the whole night grinning, much to the wifes concern. Keep looking out the window wandering when I can next go for a long drive......to think I nearly bought a...
Anyone know any info on this car please ?
Its at my local renault dealer (ware garages) and looks like a good example. 1 owner, 20k miles and left totally standard. Its advertised for 12k which seems a bit high but they are offering a good trade-in price on my current 1.2, which is swaying me...
obviously the trophy's all still have around 8 months warranty left on them, however what will modifications do to this warranty??
If I was to fit an aftermarket exhaust, would all warranty be voided??...even if something like an electric window stopped working which is clearly not related to...
As my gas monitor warning light was continuisly on i put the trophy into the local renault dealer, they said that it was missfiring, they replaced the spark plugs at £140 and told me the reason for the missfiring was caused due to not using optimax or such petrols all the time! they said if i...
Anyone considered/had a service done in France? Would it be cheaper? I`m pretty sure warranty wouldn`t be affected if a Renault dealer was used. Only asking as a service is due and I`m off to France at Easter. Cheers, Ian.
2003 '53 GT Monte Carlo Blue
just under 60k miles
2 years extended warranty to go (ish, have to check)
I'll probably put 4 new tyres on shortly, 6 months tax and a new mot by the end of the month.
Hard top + original stand and honda cover.
It had all suspension bushes changed just before...
Has anyone else on here had any problems with there trophy? ive had the gas monitor warning light up several times and both sensors replaced, ive also had the cat replaced as it cracked, just got the car back from the garage again today and have been charged £140 for new spark plugs and...
Hi,
I'm new here. I have been offered an ex-company Clio Trophy. It has done 50k miles. Would this be a good buy or not???
I haven't seen it yet. How many services should it have had in this time???
Will those expensive dampers need doing???
Thanks
Rob
Got a call as i was putting the car in the carport last night and left it in gear with predictable results when i started it this morning. fairly certain it's just superficial but the bumper is cracked. Anyone know of any decent reno dealers in the Oxford/Reading area? :(
Edit; sorry meant...
Sorry its taken so long to get this up guys - I've nicked my post from the Evo forum (Friday night + headache + still at work = get home asap) :wink:
Basically the car was handling like a pig so it went off to the dealer to get it sorted (I posted about the problems in the "Faults with your...
