Hello All,
I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days.
I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...
When Clarkson was putting the old CTR on the track against the new one.
Wasn't too surprised that the old one trounced it, because when I had a quick look at one the other day, it looked a bit podgy. I wonder how the Trophy would compare in comparison. Would be fairly interesting to see as...
Having had a plethora of hot hatches (and having the Trophy for 1 week) I can honestly say that i don't think that you could do much better than a trophy for everyday use. I traded in my Elise for this car and I believe its quicker!
More than anything you get the feeling from the driving...
Just bought Trophy No 237 from Allvehicles.
Pick it up on Tuesday.
Traded in my Elise 111r and have to say i can't wait to get my mitts on the Trophy!
Car was absolutely immaculate and Steve was really helpful and easy to get on with.
No doubt i'll be on here a bit from now on!

Have to say i was mightily impressed with the above article in this months Evo magazine and pleasantly surprised by the outcome. I owned an E30 M3 a number of years back and it was an amazing piece of kit - i've always been tempted to buy another one but was put off by the fact that my good...
I know a couple of people here run 15s for the track. What wheels are they and what weight are they per corner?
Also what Tyres are you running?
My current line of thinking is to buy some 15inch Corse's and put some R888s on.
Due to a change in circumstances (I need rear seats) I have for sale my ex Motor Sport Vision half cage.
This is as fitted to MSV's Clio and Megane trackday cars.
Easy to fit, just bolts in to existing seatbelt mountings - yes it's really that simple!!
Due to it's bulk...
Exhaust
182 cat back Stainless Steel exhaust system custom built by Charlie at Pro-Speed.
Single transverse back box design to reduce weight, and give a much cleaner visual appearance.
Produces a much improved sound over standard exhaust and transforms the driving experience. This is...
I know a lot of you are interested in the system, and i must admit i'm starting to look so i thought i would get some more info.

That's incredible, OK, do the 350X and S2000, but hold off the NSX? that's insane. I want one.
Bit of a random question but... Anyone know if you can get roof bars for them?
I'm thinking of maybe getting a car with a bit more room however i don't really want to get rid it it as i'll only miss it when its gone. If i could get roof bars that may make me keep the little beast!
Visited Prospeed on Monday to have the trophy fettled with, safe to say I am very impresses with the results. Went for a 2.5 bore all the way through and Charlie modified the outlet on my cat to match the rest of the exhaust to make the airflow spot on.
Charlie has changed the design of the...
I am buying a car that needs a little spending on it including a 12,000 mile service, new front tyres, road tax, small dent repair (paint intact) and possibly a new wheel.
I really want to get the most out of this Trophy so what I want to know is:
If you could make only 3 modifications to...
Has anyone else read about the JDM Civic Type R and getting a bit tempted?
Autocar clocked it doing 0 - 100 in 15.98 secs while the Megane R26 clocked 16.66. Not much in it but interesting all the same.
EVO gave it a good review too, hailing it as the best Honda on sale at the moment. I...
as the sun is out I thought i'd stick the R888's on this afternoon. Fitted the Alpine horn also (massive improvement).
All I can say is i'm shocked at the difference to PE2's.... from cold they are like driving on ice.... turn in is more direct (not sure if the 15" wheels have caused this or...

Think after last restart Cue got within 2 bends of the last car on track & no other cars were anywhere in view :-#
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...
Yes, the unthinkable is happening, I'm buying a flat as some of you know and the second love of my life is up for sale. Everyone who's seen this car knows that this is silly money but it's going to Steve at allvehicles at the start of next week so it will go to a lucky new owner for slightly...
