    Low mileage, one owner Trophy for sale soon

    All I've taken the difficult decision to sell my owned from new Trophy. I'm simplifying my life and reducing the number of cars on the drive, and in doing so the time commitment to use them all as intended and to keep them in top condition. The car is #430/500. There's lots of details of my...

    T22PHY Registration For Sale

    All. I've taken this VRN off my Trophy and have put it on retention whilst the Trophy is off the road having its Sachs refurbed by BG. I'll be putting it on other forums and with a reputable plate dealer if no-one on here is interested after a week or so. I've had the plate valued and I'm aware...

    T**PHY VRN Wanted

    I've finally given in to thinking about changing the VRN of #430 that I've owned from new. The plates themselves are looking a bit tired and I thought I might take the chance to change the VRN not merely get new plates made up. Please could anyone let me know if they're thinking of selling a VRN...

    What's your mileage after 15 (and a bit) years?

    4 years or so ago a thread ran for a while collecting up to date mileage data on a good number of our cars. https://cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/whats-your-mileage-after-11-years.53689/ I thought it would be interesting to run this again as: - I suspect that we haven't put as many miles on our...

    How Many Left and How Many SORNed

    Just taken a look at the latest figures on How Many Left https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/renault_clio_renaultspt_trophy182 I hadn't realized just quite how many cars are SORNed rather than driven! In Q4 2018 fewer than 50% of all the 500 UK cars made were being actively used. Makes the...

    What's your mileage (after 11 years)?

    Given the recent appearance of the 16K Trophy on eBay, and because the calendar just rolled past October 1st 2005 which I'm guessing was something of a peak date for original registrations (I nominate it as the notional birthday of the Trophy!) as people deferred collection until the then new...

    I recently bought artwork from Petrolified (http://www.petrolified.com) which produces prints of "iconic vehicles" which are sold through various enthusiast forums.
