I thought it would be interesting to hear what plans people have this weekend... car related or not. Maybe this could become a regular 'Friday feature'.... I'll kick-off: am going to be a temporary parent this weekend, looking after a friends child which will involve shopping (yes, he actually...

Decided to get myself a nice new steering wheel from Omp ..didnt expect it to take weeks but supose its worth it, few quick short snaps .. what you think , going to detail the car this week inside and out , pics not the best of quality ( IPHONE ) ..

Are all Trophy owners as "sad" as me? I have had my T for nearly 5 months now and I smile as much now as i did the day I picked it up when I am in it. I just had to replace both rear wheel bearings (only 1 had gone but did both anyway) at a cost of 115 quid. Also having new front tyres on...

Bit of a random one this, but I fancied having a moan about the appalling quality of a lot of the driving on our roads. Sometimes it's so bad it actually scares me. I think my biggest pet hate, or one of them at least, is people who randomly brake for no reason. Not necessarily heavy braking...

It's been a while since i've taken some photos of number 427. I have also been neglecting the paintwork but as i've been loving driving it again recently my love has been reignited :D Weapon of choice: Plus a huge selection of products. I got bored after 4 hours though. Tomorrow i will get...

I've only just had my bonnet catch recall letter from Renault. Actually about a month ago, going in today for the work. Looking back, some mention of this over the last year. How many people have had theirs done already?

I used to have a red Fiat Coupe 20VT a few years back. Really fun little thing, didn't handle well but looked good and went pretty quick. BUT: it turned completely pink over two years as the pigment in the paint oxidised (or whatever it does). It was an R-reg and this was in 2002. So I'm...

Here are some photos from Rebel's first outing of 2009 - a run around the Brecon area, South Wales (mixed cars/marques). Despite the poor conditions of late we were blessed with pretty good weather given the time of year. For the majority of the run it was quite pleasant (if a little wet in...

Hello. This morning i turned on my 182 and drove away. Then i noticed a light on the dash in the middle under the petrol light. It was a rectangle with wiggly likes in it from left to right and same orange as the petrol light. The engine had very limited power (limited to under 3000 revs). I...

My Trophy is more than likely going to be sold unless it gets an 11th hour reprieve to help fund my wedding. At present im running upgraded brakes, maxogen and CAT back exaust. I have been looking at the resale prices on numberous websites and quite frankly the secondhand prices are shockingly...

I bought a Turtle Wax wheel cleaner spray from halfords a while back. i have just given the wheels its first application with the stuff over the weekend. I have pagids fitted too and the wheels come up a treat in conjunction with a jet washer. However after i had read the small print (after i...

SPOTTED TODAY OUTSIDE THE RECEPTION - LOOKING VERY NICE

Hi All, Just bought a 1 owner 29k Mile Trophy. Paid 7k. From a chap just down the road from me. Will dig out the number tonight so i can update the register.. EDIT Number: 224 Car was in pretty poor condition for such low mileage, but has the full service history, and hpi clear, as well as a...

Well it's now just over a year since the last service [-X and was pondering whether to get the belts done as it will be 3 in october, thing is it's only done 9k. :oops: What's everyone else doing and what's your opinion?

Hi, Just washed my car and noticed that the wheel bolts are loosing most of their coating. Does anyone know the part number as I think i'll replace all 12 with new ones rather than try and refurb them. I guess they were anthracite when new to match the wheels. Cheers All.

Today at 12ish, didnt get a good look at the reg, for some reason ive got GX55 *** in my head but couldnt be sure. Looked 8) . Made me go home and give mine its second wash in five days. :D

Gave the clio a good wash the other day and thought i would post some pictures. Car is doing me well alltho its just been in for a service with rentech which cost me £300. Not bad considering Renault wanted £600 odd. As you can see it needs a new foglight/splitter/ small amount of bumper...

Spent the weekend working on Theo's car as it needed a little TLC :) Also had great fun with the weather, in and out of the garage all day on Sunday, glad we got the polishing/correction done on Saturday when the weather was perfect! When the car arrived safe to say it was a little dirty, you...

.....just going west bound under the railway bridge approching Filton Avenue. I was heading East to swap the Tropy for my 197 Cup........

Spent the weekend polishing the Trophy, have been meaning to combat the swirls ever since it came out of Renault for some warranty work (forgot to ask them not to clean the car with a gritty sponge). Not the best weekend, as I had to keep dodging all the rain showers . Had to finish up in the...

Im thinkin on buying a stainless steel grille from K-Tec for the trophy do you think its too chavy?

Washed the car off under the bonnet and the car has developed a constant misfire, sounds like it's running on three cylinders... i've checked all the HT leads at the coil end and various other multi plugs for moisture but none found. Anybody got any ides please?!

Hey Guys, I know it's a long shot trying to diagnose a problem with my 182 over the net without seeing or hearing a car, but some of you guys are very clued up & thought you may be able to help me. I have a funny feeling I have a engine or possible gearbox mount gone or on the way out...

Hi Folks, While driving my girlfriends Trophy for the first time in ages the other night I was doing maybe 80MPH when I changed from 5th to 4th & put the throttle to the floor. Lots of smoke came out of the exhaust - after double checking it (repeated the gearchange) the same thing happened...

You were driving up the hill towards scotthall BMW, i was driving the other way in my rents car at about 9ish. :)

I thought I'd post this up here for people to just be nosey at. I can't take credit for the write up, but have a read....:cool: The pictures honestly do not do the car justice now imo. The paint feels so smooth it's unreal. I haven't felt paint so smooth on a new car in all honesty...

Why does my oil gauge go from half way (normal when hot) down to zero again and vice versa, does it intermittantly but got me worried. The oil light came on the other day and I topped it up a bit, dipstick shows that its half way between min and max. I take it the gauge is showing oil...

Gritted my teeth and ventured into the cold today,,,,,bucket in one hand..sponge in the other, the aim..........Top make No 190 red again after one dirty weekly drive to work! :idea: half way through and my hands were starting to drop off so a coffee and a pic were in order and after a big...
