I am getting a background noise only when moving. Sounds a bit boomy. This happens even when moving with the clutch in. I don't think its the exhaust. Seems to be getting worse. I think its something to do with the drive. Gear box seems ok. I know I'm being a bit vague but any bright ideas. Thanks.
I tried to buy oil for my Trophy from Renault Ilford. TOLD NO OIL 2 WEEK WAIT. Can you believe it? I asked how they service cars without oil The parts bloke said they buy in from Halfords for 182s. :roll:
Where else can I get Elf oil or is there alternative?
Help would be appreciated :)
I have done 3200 miles now and have noticed some clutch judder when I pull away at low revs in 1st gear. Is this normal? Should I keep revs up a bit more or should I get this checked out. I do most of my driving in London rush hour. I would be grateful for advise.

I rang Renault to confirm date the car is meant to arrive. They previously told me 20 September. Now they say 29 September. What a shit!! Has any one any info on the reason it might be delayed. It seemed from this forum a few were to be arriving on or around 20th. Anything I can do to hurry it...
