    Recaro trendline seats

    Just bought a pair of these seats and fitted them. I can't seem to get the tilt and slide forward to work properly. Is there a way of adjusting the tension so it pulls the handle up to allow for the seat to be slid forward? I am wondering if i have attached the cable to the subframe wrong. If...

    Dodgy Water Temp

    As above. I have had the sensor replaced and it is back to intermittently dropping - especially on the motorway. I am thinking it's an electrical fault (wiring or connection perhaps). But then again my electrical and mechanical knowledge are limited, very limited.

    White Trophy?

    So what do we think? When i have the full cage welded in (probably over the winter) the entire interior will need spraying. If it's done red, it will be just too much, if it's black then it will be a bit gloomy, so at the moment i'm thinking of white, but if i do the interior white then i may...

    Glovebox and boot interior lights

    Evening All, Ever since I've had my Trophy neither the light in my glovebox or the interior light have ever worked. With it being quite dark in the evenings they would be really useful if they did! I've checked the fuse and both bulbs and they all seem fine. I've also read the manual and can't...

    I'm in the position to replace the Clio next year sometime next year, but nothing on the market was grabbing me. R26 was fancied, but from what I've read not better than the Trophy enough to justify the change. Then went crazy and started fantasising about a 996 Carrera 4, until my old man...
