You could argue it's a complete waste of money, it's not like anyone has ever said the 1*2 is underpowered, furthermore it sounds like you're relatively new to Clio ownership yet you're chasing more power already. My advice, enjoy the car for what it is in standard form, there are plenty of...

How much are you looking to spend? Are you prepared to pay top dollar for a premium finish, or are you wanting them done on a budget?

Chris Powell made his own brackets to fit 197/200/225/230 Brembo callipers with 280mm discs and 300mm discs, the former needing 5mm milled from the brackets in order to fit under some 15in wheels.

My white 2118s now reside on Trophy #116 in Swindon. Every chance this was Mike @Badgerman85

That means they're not Trophy Turinis but Cup Turinis :)

Any indication as to what rubber these are wearing?

Properly nice that, how does it go?

Can you link it in? I couldn't find it and it'd be good to pair the two threads. Cheers

Most are 55 plate

Loads of effort gone into trying to sell that car - took all of 5 seconds to read the ad. If you can find out the number you might find some more info on the Owners Register of the Trophy forum (cliotrophy.co.uk). Not too many on an 05 plate I don't think, not that that means much - buy on...

Lovely write-up and pictures Chris, sounds like a good time was had by all.

2118s or standard Turinis?

It's a shame if it's your car but other than that I don't see it. There's no doubt it's a very special car, but I'm not precious if one I have no emotional attachment to gets binned or broken. At the end of the day this Vee might result in a handful of others being 'saved' or remaining...

Why is it a shame?

A pal of mine is selling his Meg: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-Renault-Sport-Megane-225-50k-Miles-New-Belts-Brakes-Wheels-Tyres-more-/371593376892?hash=item5684b0f47c:g:Q~gAAOSw~OVWx6zD

Nope, I didn't see it this time round, which is a shame - that was a seriously quick Skoda. I couldn't work out what the sound was, clearly it was the diff!

What's your spec? It was going very well each time I saw you out.

Kept getting an error message so re-attempted purchase time after time. Now I'm getting email notifications saying the payments have failed, and some successful ones. We're only expecting one baby but might end up with a handful of baby seats :(

Any update in the last week SV? It's tantalising being so close, but like you say, this kind of thing happens!

Steve, I think there's a thread devoted to Brembo wheel and offset options, let me try and find it...

@Dan@SJM and @Russ_16v now own the rights so will be best placed to provide an accurate update on new RS2 availability.

I've just got back from a weekend in Wales - write-up here. During the trip the car clicked over 60,000 miles and the whole weekend it performed faultlessly, but now it's time to get all the jobs that need doing done. I've got everything I need for the belts etc so I'll take it all down to MWM...

Such an awesome thread that deserves serious kudos!

I think Chris Powell could have them done for £30/pair, but postage will be a fair cost on top.

Take with you a decent tyre pressure gauge and a compressor that runs off the cigarette lighter. Reduce pressures to 25/26/27/28 and do a few laps, come in and check pressures as soon as you can. Adjust if necessary. Go out again and repeat. Don't forget to reinflate at the end of the day...

Which series do you race in?

Cheers Dan, going again this year if you're around in September? The more (Trophys) the merrier :)

I grabbed these quickly before I left for work this morning:
