Thanks guys, I’ll check them both out.

Hi All, My Trophy 220 is due a service, does anyone know of a reputable garage in or around the Basingstoke area? I'm trying to avoid a trip down to K-Tec if possible. Thanks

Yeah I have always lowered my cars when installing spacers. The monster truck look is not desirable unless I plan to attend any rodeos haha

Hi All, Has anyone got any pics of their Clio mk4 200/220t with front splitters/low line kit/ side skirts etc. fitted? Also has anyone fitted wheel spacers without lowering the car, does it look silly? Thanks

Thanks mate, it’s got everything. The only option it doesn’t have is the leather seats which I’m not too bothered about if I’m honest. It’s a Clio at the end of the day so wasn’t expecting luxury 😂. I rate the black pack with the yellow, probably one of my favourite bits. The view from the back...

Thanks bud, yeah its got the PS4s. To be honest that says a lot about the previous owner, shows they looked after it. I know the 182 trophy was designed with the pilot sports, assumed the new trophy was the same?

Thanks! The throttle map was set to snow which may be the default setting? Probably explains why the throttle electronically pushes down further once the torque has reached its set point in that map. It's raining here so I'll have a play when it's dry.

I saw that you mentioned this to someone else a while back on another thread. Is the track monitor associated with the RS monitor (or is it the same thing)? At the moment I'm still finding stuff out about the car but all I can see is lots of different pages showing lots of information and that's it?

Haha no way! I sometimes look just out of curiosity and never see many yellows with all the options. I was constantly checking autotrader etc for Audi RS3s and then just had a little look at Clios and saw this. I just paid the £200 reserve deposit so I could think about it without the risk of it...

Where is the meet on the 5th September?

Yeah that sucks a little. Renault upgraded seats were always decent. Shame the trophy didn’t have these options

Quite like the gearbox if I’m honest. Both my Golf R32 and R were DSG so I’m used to the auto. As it’s my daily driver it’s soo much easier. I have noticed the gear changes (in manual) are quicker than the Golf R and it kicks down in normal mode quick the than the Golf as well. So far so good

Hi everyone, I thought I’d share my new Trophy that I picked up yesterday from a garage near Leicester. A bit of an impulse buy if I’m honest but I have been very impressed with it so far (only driven 100 miles). I recently sold my mk7 Golf R as I was getting bored, I’d had it a few years and it...

Thanks guys, I’ll get a thread up when I have her. All this talk about the Akra is making me giddy. I really need to get my head around the car and the spec I have bought (sounds ridiculous 😂). I just saw it come up and thought, sod it I’ll reserve it before someone else beats me to it!
