OK, so last night i got the Geo done by a mates garage. Yes, they are a bodyshop, but when you are the authorised repairer for Lotus, Aston, Ferrari, Lamborghini & Pagani, you probably know how to set up a clio lol ...
So, effectively, since we fitted the front suspension, the Toe has been out...
Here goes. Post No.1
I used to own a 182Cup. Loved it, but since then have been exploiting Munich's finest; a CSL.
1.5 kids later and i reckon i'm going to return to the world of superhothatchville. And the Trophy an itch than has never quite been scratched.
So, to cut a long story short. I'm...

After 2 weeks of running I've decided to enter for my first half marathon. I tossed around the idea of a marathon but soon realised it was...
As new condition. 2010/10 Plate Renaultsport Clio 200 with Cup Chassis in Albi Blue Metallic. Only 1150 miles and one enthusiast owner. Factory upgrade: Lightweight Recaro Seats, Rear Privacy Glass, Speedline Lightweight Alloys in Black, GT Rear Spoiler, Dedicated Cornering Lights, Electric...
Right guys I'm considering swapping my wheels. My Trophy is a second car and if I'm honest it all ways will be.
The plan is to downsize to 15"Alloys, I only ever use the car in the dry so figured I could get away with a set of road legal track tyres, which would also cover the handful of...
Has anyone attempted to use a bike rack on the trophy. I am a little concerned at the pressure it will put on the rear spoiler. i have one of those strap type versions that you fit/hook around the boot area.
Previous vehicle I could fit the strap underneath the spoiler, the trophy you cannot...
Okay, for one reason or another I long longer have easy access to a PC so I suppose its time I bit the bullet and got laptop'd up. Don't really know a great deal so what should I be looking for in a good one etc etc. As for budget, I would rather not be spending huge amounts but will for a good...
Hey Guys! I've fancied a new project for a while and finally found what I was looking for today!... I decided to treat myself to a 106 S1 Rallye to use mainly for track days and road rallies! Great spec, just a few little jobs and she's ready for some track action!
I've got a couple of sets of...
Brake fluid... Bit of a mystery topic!
To help dispel some myths and for some good solid general info on the mysterious world of brake fluids I decided to contact Millers Oils up in West Yorkshire.
Their Technical Director, Martyn Mann was on hand to give us some useful info… below is...
I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing.
Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread.
Do you,
A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres?
Or
B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear.
?
Hi,
Thought I'd sign up here to get some info from Trophy owners before I test drive some.
I currently own a Peugeot 106 Rallye 1.3 which I really like and recently thought I would never sell as it does almost everything that I want in a car(no I dont want comfort!)-steering feel, chassis...
Hello!
My first post on here and was just hoping for a bit of information to help me along the way.
Thinking of selling my 172 cup and wanting to upgrade to a 182 trophy, i've looked at alternatives and feel the 182 trophy would be a great choice for me - has anyone else had a similar...

My rear pads need replacing very soon i've used the search facility and found lots of posts regarding brakes etc.
Now i know the brakes at the rear only take about 20%, so i was going to go for either the standard renault OEM pads or the Ferodo DS2500's which i think quite a few people are...
What a thoughtful mrs - just turned up in the post on my birthday a week or so back! Will keep the original bonnet for best :)

Hey Guys
My bootlid decided to slam itself on my head this morning :evil:!!!
I understand the boot gas struts (if thats what they are called) are slightly shorted than the normal 182's to accommodate the V6 spoiler. Thought i'd see if anyone has any idea how much they cost and where to buy...
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...
Has anyone contemplated using them? If so, what brand and size? Also would they actually provide better grip than the PE2's in winter?
I was looking at UK mean maximum temperatures from October to April, and between at least November to March temperatures should be highly suitable for winter...
Those with PS3s fitted - what tyre pressures are you using?
I normally run 32 front but they seem a bit squidgy if you chuck the front around.
I'm guessing a softer sidewall causes this?
Gonna try 35 front later and have a tinker.

Hey guys, went to try a new Megane RS 250 this morning from Hylton Renault Worcester. I tried a FF 250 version not the cup version which I would personally opt for, but was quite impressed by it anyway. It felt very composed and the build quality is indeed leagues ahead of the 182, as most...
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?

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...
