For Sale: 4 x Clio Trophy Turini's in their original finish with the speedline logos on the rims (not visible on pics). These are surplus to requirements and are taking up space I don't have. My car runs on 2118's. Two of the alloys are marked but nothing major. 2 of the tyres are road legal...

Has anyone fitted winter tyres to their Turinis? I've got 2 full sets of wheels now so am hoping to do so soon. I recall reading somewhere that it's worth fitting slightly narrower tyres (more choice and saves money too!). I was thinking 195/45/R16 instead of the standard 205's? Will these...

Just wonderd what the main cause of the steering wheel melt problem is? I presume it's the sun's rays beating down on it, making it hot and causing the material to deform or is it the UV's prematurely ageing the leather? Just wondering whether to park it with the windcsreen facng away from the...

I have a humming noise coming from my car, sounding like a shot wheel bearing - humming more when turning right, indicating a left bearing. I changed both of my fronts and after picking it up from the garage this evening, it's still there, not so loud though. I jacked the car up before it went...

Hi I acquired these when I bought my Trophy, with the intention of using them for trackdays. I never got round to doing any. The wheels could do with a good clean / tidy up / refurb, depending on what they're to be used for. Also, unfortunately one of the renault centre caps is missing. All...

I am in need of 4 new tyres and looking at prices for premium brand 205/45/16 tyres are £100+ each including P&P/fitting. I used to run a ph2 172 and they ran on 195/45/16. I remember with Conti Sport on the 172 the handling was more playful than the Trophy. Has anyone considered or are...

Hi everyone. I recently purchased #151 from a very friendly Robert Evans from this forum. It need a few service issues addressed but I'm happy and it drives extremely well. I have been using the search function but I still have a few questions. 1) Brakes pads are 85% worn acording to the MOT...

Can anyone help me? My car is staying on full lock. I accelerate and put on full lock without touching the steering it stays on full lock and drives around in circles. When I reverse the steering comes back. i have tried all the basic things such as tyre pressure, changed wheels around...

Hi all! With a house purchase on the cards in the not to distant fututre I am having to sell off my toys :( Numero 66 is a low miles three owner car. She has just tipped over 39k, and will come with 6 months TAX and a full MOT (has just flown through with no advisories). Belts have been...

Hi Guys, I have a single Michelin Pilot Exalto which I need to shift. It has about 5-6mm of tread left but it has a puncture (still has a small screw in it). The puncture is right in the middle of the tread so could be repaired successfully. Is this any good to anyone? Thanks, MaKS

Hello all, Just wondering if anybody else has used these as track wheels. I have a set (et 43) and when i put them on the spokes just (i mean just) clash with the rear brake carrier. A small spacer makes it clear but i thought the rear setup has never really changed much on any of the clios...

http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/4152373.htm Can't help think that doesn't look to bad! Thoughts?

Following on from some other topics and comments regarding Sachs and rebuilds, has anyone changed the Sachs for something else, if so what are the options? I know the Sachs are the selling point of the Trophy, but as there is a lack of new stock and the refurbs do not seem to last I am...

After only 2 years since i had my dampers refurbed one of them is leaking oil again. Anyone know the availability of new dampers?

Front ones yellow, rears black is this right?

Just got myself a new red Clio Trophy to go with ma old red Dub :p , so here I am :) Forum looks a good job guys :up:

Been looking at Trophy's for a while and think i've found a bargain only issue is it needs the dreaded front shoxs and a timing belt. I've done a little reading and can anyone clarify if new shocks are available? I know i'm looking at around 500-800 for rebuild and looking at say 400 for timing...

After a set of track wheels, anything will do as long as they fit the T. Prefer without tyres if poss as already have those. Can collect around the Dorset area or arrange courier if needed. Cheers

Just just a heads up to say that RUK are placing orders with both sachs and speed line. Spoke to my RUK advisor today and she has told me that they have placed an order of 48 speed line wheels to be held in UK stock. I have also asked about the sachs stickers on the shocks once again and she...

Clio Trophy on 55k miles, #196 in excellent condition inside and out. When I bought it over 2 years ago I searched high and low for the best example I could find and it has been well taken care of since. I work near a fantastic Renault specialist and as the service history shows if anything...

Hi Guys, I was cleaning my inside of my wheels and noticed that the drivers side wheel was covered in grease, when i checked the CV Boot i noticed that the clip holding the rubber boot had broken, so i have temporarily put a cable tie around it for now. But i was wondering what people...

Hello everyone. It's been a while but this still is the best car enthusiast forum IMO. Good to be on here again and may well be back in a Clio subject to job situation. I'll be selling my 5.5 AMG merc as it's not very economical as you can imagine. So, my question is, in a nut shell, what are...
