    Trophy vs 205

    Evening everyone. I've been umming and ahhing about selling the Clio for a while now, it's costing a fair bit to run which isn't great when I have another expensive hobby. So i've decided I should probably try to get a cheaper car that's as fun and although i've looked at MX-5s and the like...

    Wheel Refurbishment

    I'm looking at getting the original wheels refurbished in the near future but I cannot find a place that will spray them in IXELL paint. I am also wary that by painting them with a water based paint they will bubble again, which I don't want. Has anybody either had theirs refurbished in paint...

Ktec said to use engine oil to lubricate the top mounts last week, which i did, from within the engine bay, but it made no difference. I was...

    Speed line wheel stickers

    Hey chaps (ettes!) Was giving the Trophy a wash today and noticed that, before long, am sure that the last fading speedline logo is going to disappear from the wheel lip. I have, on the back the CT numbered sticker and thought it might be an idea to get some stickers made up in the same way...

    Renault Sport Clio 172 / 182 Steering Wheel

    Removed from a 182 with cruise control, but should fit any model of Mk 2 Clio from 2001-2008 with or without cruise control. If your car doesn't have cruise control, just remove the buttons to allow your airbag to fit. The steering wheel is in fantastic condition, one of the best I've seen...
