    Barn Find ? 31k Trophy on EBay

    It’s epic it’s got to this price within a day. Anyone managed to get a response from the seller of the car yet on eBay? Trying to understand if it’s their car they’re selling as it would be great to understand the history etc..

    Clio Trophy - One owner, 29k, yours for £23,000 of your finest British pounds sir.

    That's ultimately like saying you would be disappointed that your pension pot / investment portfolio is increasing in value? That's how I see it, feel free to educate me if i'm not understanding their point of view :) Mine hasn't been bought for investment purposes and I use it no matter the...

    They're new shocks from Renault, not from a different car. Completely built ready to fit with genuine Trophy Eibach springs!

    Clio Trophy - One owner, 29k, yours for £23,000 of your finest British pounds sir.

    I'm always happy to! Often I find it important to help people understand the behind the scenes of the business. I'd hate for people to think I'm a generic car dealer and not an enthusiast who sells cars! Also, if anyone is local in Kent and want's to pop by and see our stock and see the...

    Clio Trophy - One owner, 29k, yours for £23,000 of your finest British pounds sir.

    Hello everyone, just thought as I run Pitlane Performance i'd respond to a few bits on here! Glad to see the majority of people see the potential of Hot Hatchbacks, interesting to see some people not enjoying the rise in value of these cars even though they own them! But there we are, everyone...

    Car Throttle 1*2 Project Car Coming Soon.

    The Trophy in the video has had one owner in the last 10 years! Full Renault history & is in total original form from factory. I bought it and put it in my garage to spend a bit of money on once I had sorted my other projects. 2 months later they contacted me about a video with it & totally...

    Sam's BG 182 Project

    So the Clio is pretty much done for the meantime! Just fitted EPAS as well. Found that no pas at all was extremely heavy to use. Had the car corner weighted and aligned before its trackday on Tuesday. The car Weighs 964KG with 1/2 Tank. Some photos Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who's using Gaz GHA coilovers? What damping are you using?

    I took the helper springs out the rear.. it stopped the rattling / clanging. Looking to order new spring rates tonight. Does anyone know the front and rear spring sizes on the Gaz GHA's?? Was going to remove the springs tonight and measure them but plans have changed :(!

    Sam's Clio 172 Cup Daily Project

    I feel the same way! I turned a lovely 182 with immaculate interior into a track car [emoji23] They are getting a lot rarer. Especially in standard form. It will be kept OEM. I may change a few little bits but nothing too major. It will be nice to clean it up! Hello, I bought my last coolant...

    race car abs removal

    Ahh right, no worries. I probably will end up making up the braided lines and running them through the interior via bias valve and hydraulic handbrake. Would be a lot easier buying them already made ready to fit!

    race car abs removal

    Just the 172 cup setup? Or custom braided lines throughout???
