Due to a change of circumstances 456 is now up for sale. I need the funds to buy a van for work as im going self employed. anyway the car ... Other than the rear being stripped and fitted with a carbon fibre strut brace and TRS harnesses the car is prity much standard. Everything is in...

I have loved my Trophy for many years but now it is time to sell. Number 370/500. I had a clio expert take a look today and they said it was great to see a totally standard vehicle, an honest car. Serviced annually, recently cared for my M&N motors (renault specialists) full service in...

Spring is here, time to get rid of the swirls from the harsh winter. I’ve used a DAS-6 a few times and achieved reasonable results but now I’ve decided to upgrade to rotary in the form of a cheap and cheerful Silverline. Due to time restrictions and it being my first time I’m only aiming for...

Hi all, Took advantage of the weather today to give the car it's first mini-detail of the year: Snowfoamed 2bm Clayed SRP EGP Waxed with Zymol something-or-other etc... Spruces up alright tbh 8) Comments and criticism welcome. Cheers, Luke.

Haven't taken many pics of the car since I got it back from the bodyshop. Since then I've added a few other parts, 182 xenons, FF rear bench and new style RS mats gave it a detail while it was in the garage, applied AG SRP x2 coats and then Collinite 845 x 2 coats Pics taken with 18-55mm and...

For sale is my much loved 2003 VW Lupo Gti in Tornado Red. Selling due to recently buying a Trophy. The Lupo is currently on 87,450 miles but will go up as it is used to commute daily (nearly all motorway miles currently averaging 44MPG). It has only had 2 previous owners before me and...

The JMS RS2 Intake Manifold The RS2 Manifold as it has been named, is a ground breaking product for the ph2 range of RenaultSport Clios. Traditional NA tuning methods surrounding the 2.0 Litre Renault engine involve extensive & costly changes to either the engines internals, or via ITB...

anyone thinking about getting this set up? or seen it in the flesh? looks the amazing.

Hi guys I have got some Eibach Sportlines on mine but it seems more people are changing the springs on the Trophy. Anyone got any good recommendations? .. I have even heard the soft dare i say Apex have even had good reviews on the Trophy dampers. Cheers for spring or damper related info...

I know its not a Trophy but I just thought I'd post! (I have owned one and still love 'em) Anyway, This month my car is entered in Vertar's Car Of The Month competition. I would really appreciate your votes, a lot of time went into this car when I got it. The first detail took me approx 14...

Been meaning to get it done for ages, really pleased.

I recently bought some port matched inlets butbefore fitting I spent hours polishing up the out side before fitting. I complemented this with a polished strut brace that really doesn't offer much in way of performance increase but unlike the way it looks. Also did my own tacho change by buying...

Hey. I just spent the last 10 days in Peru, 4 days walking the Inca Trail and MachuPiccu, what an amazing experience! Pics tell 1000 words so enjoy… Ben

Gave the clio a clean today, looks as if the zymol wax is keeping a nice deep glossy shine Some may have seen when I had the timing done that I gave the sachs dampers a quick clean over, well I decided the full arch should be done, especially with the bad weather right around the corner, I felt...

Bit of a long shot really.... Just about to book my Trophy in for a full detail. Have been looking at all the companies local to me and have narrowed it down to one maybe two. Was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Showshine Detailing & Valeting? I don't think he has done a...

After a good coat of zymol creme wax the trophy was looking very very good For those interested I've also had the timing checked and reset as it was a tooth out (Avoid Renotech in northallerton) Heres some pics of the job getting done and also a couple of the sachs and turini's...

Hi guys, my Trophy currently has uprated Brembo brakes/pads and full stainless steel exhaust system. I have a few hundred pound to spend on the car and as it is due it's MOT in October I was considering getting remap done at the same time. I have spoken to a guy called Paul whom I believe...

I plan on doing an arch detail on the trophy soon and plan on giving the Sach's a scrub up aswell Is there anything I should be aware of before I set out? Also is there anything I can use to protect the seals etc from failing

Hi Guys, I've used various products over the years but what do you find is best for cleaning your alloys? Like my old Cup, i find the wheels on the Trophy very fiddley to clean between the spokes but am reluctant to spray with some of the chemicals i've used on regular alloys in case it takes...

hi folks something strange happened whilest driving the trophy tonight, basicly was just driving normally along around 40mph when the oil light on the dash flashed up with the words STOP NOW, anyways i stopped and thought no way has the oil ran out as i had checked it a week or so ago, i checked...

Before I begin, most item prices have the postage included. Everything will be posted first class recorded delivery! I'd prefer collection which will mean a discount off the price. You will know the things I can post and what I can't. I have split the items in to 4 sections: - Engine -...

Okay, picked up Trophy 207 a couple of weeks back and today the quest began to make it like new! I'm aiming for a 100% factory-fresh look and feel and after not really getting anything much done in the past couple of weeks, progress is finally being made! Now, when I collected it, it was clear...

Has anyone fitted flat blade wipers like more modern cars have? Specifically it'd be the Bosch Aerotwin ones, but I contacted wiperblades.co.uk who said they aren't made for the Clio II. The confusion comes where I'm sure I remember seeing a picture of a Trophy with some in the correct fitment!

After owning Trophy 452, I'm pleased to be collecting Trophy 207 tomorrow. Extremely excited too! I really regretted selling the Trophy; despite having some other good cars, to me none of them were as special. What's changed in the world of Clio Trophys since I've been away (sold in December...

Just wondering how people have mounted the lap belts for the harnesses in your Trophy's? Its easy to simply drill a hole in the Recaro mounts (or even the floor), but id rather not do that for resale purposes ... I have OMP 4 point clip in ones (with eye bolts) if that helps. Cheers Dave

Finally got round to get the paint properly corrected and treated a full Swissvax detail by a true pro. Just need to go and pick it up :lol: The car should now look better than when it was brand new: http://is.gd/d6aBf

............kind gesture from family and can now afford to buy myself a private plate for the T. Wondering if anyone else has any ideas for a plate other than the usual T.....PHY. Ideas so far............ T11PHY S4CHS B3NDS C110 TR Most of the good ones are gone so ideas welcome!

Here's the scenario guys & girls.......It's a Trophy - but then that's why we're all here isn't it :D Show's 25k and there's only evidence of 1 service conducted in 2006. No MOT and the front tyres definitely need replacing. What is this car going to need mechanically to bring it up to scratch...

Hi guys, As part of Divine Detailing, I am now pleased to offer Full Vinyl Vehicle Wraps in practically any colour in conjunction with Racoon. This can be the popular Matt Black, Chrome, Carbon Fibre, Electric blue etc etc etc - 1000's to choose from! As well as this, I can arrange wheel...
