Anyone off here?

Absolutely horrendous before - leather had melted to the point it was soft and you could pick bits off with your fingers. Thimg grips weren't too bad but had started coming off. Felt awful to use. Really impressed with how it turned out, exactly what I wanted and exactly as I expected...

Just had my Sachs refurbed so thought I'd take it for a quick blast. Cba doing a proper write-up so I'll let the pics do the talking. They're not in any order! We did Paris, Luxembourg, Nurburg, Netherlands and Antwerp (Belgium) in 4 days. It was my second trip around Europe this year - went...

Spotted you parked up acruss from the infocenter, already had a white 'ring sticker on :) reg started with HT53 - anyone from here?

I've just had my Sachs dampers refurbed and refitted on the Trophy. I got the tracking done at a local motorsport place who said it was toeing out 6 degrees, so now it's back to (1 and half I think he said). My steering doesn't feel good. It handles amazingly, doesn't pull to either side and...

Is there anything I can put on them to make sure they don't get UV damaged/light scratches like they all seem to do? Not Lamin-x.

Gave me a thumbs up... who was it?

...well I certainly got home quicker than usual ;)

I've recently done a full coolant flush and change and replaced the thermostat. However, first thing in the morning, take today for example: - It took around half an hour to warm fully up to temperature. - It stuck on the 4th bar up for a bit, then went to 5th, then back to 4th and stayed...

Sometimes my wipers are fine. Sometimes, they will go up the windscreen and get stuck and not come back down, needing a push to do so. It's as if they are really struggling and don't have enough power to make the full trip. Could it be the motor or something else?

From the N/S wheel only. It only happens when I'm braking especially when doing so around a corner. Someone has mentioned it could be a ball-joint, however I've no idea. Any ideas? Cheers.

It's coming up to a year since I bought the Trophy now and I thought I'd do a write-up on what I've done, the various different looks it's had and future plans all in one place. As some of you may remember, I've had 2 Clios prior to this and not had a very good history with them (hence the...

I've just fitted an LED into my interior light, and it works well apart from when it should automatically come on when you unlock the car/open the door. If I switch it manually it comes on. Any ideas?

Who's doing them these days? The two forum users that were doing them seem to have stopped, is there any other places out there that will do a half decent job? Pictures are always useful :)

On Manchester road about an hour ago, silver Vee coming towards me :)

I did a coolant flush/change a while ago and ever since, the car gets up to temperature fine but after a long drive on the motorway for example, the temperature needle goes slightly (and I mean only slightly) below half way where it's supposed to be. When I did the coolant change, it didn't...

Looks clean for once! Thanks to Bonxy and cadab for the pics! :approve:

Pretty cheap as he needs the cash. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201225476410429/postcode/M72FS

Hi there, are there any guides or can anyone provide basic information on how to change my alternator? Is it the same as changing it on any other car or being a Renaultsport, it's an absolute ballache? Is there anything I need to worry about? Heard people mention tensioning etc.

A few times now my car has refused to start and required jump starting in order to get it going again. Just now, I've set off and within 2 minutes of the car running, the SERV, ABS and traction lights have come on so I pulled over, turned it off and surprise surprise, it needs jumping. It did...

As above really, I've found that if my windscreen isn't completely soaked, just a bit of water on it, the wipers won't come back down and I find myself having to push them for them to return. Wiper motor? Something else?

I flashed you and waved (in my bus :D).

Gave it a wash today and thought I'd better polish the tailpipes for once. It's amazing what a difference it's made, you couldn't even see them before. Before; Now; They just need aligning AGAIN (mounts are shagged) and she's all ready for FCS :)

Are Cup suspension packed 182's 60mm, just like 182 Cups?

Hi there, I've used Autosol on my tailpipes and they came up really well. However, after a short drive they are black with soot again and the only way to get rid of it is to polish them... again. Is there anything I could put on them after polishing maybe that will let me just wipe them down...

Took it for a proper drive for the first time in ages today seeing as it was good weather, ended up on some lovely roads in Rivington. Just the one pic but I like it so thought I'd share :)

Got bored so decided to wack a bit of vinyl on and also the old lights I used to have on my 1.2 (custom jobby) just to see how it looked. I know the rear vinyl needs to be about 1cm longer each side, but it's coming off when I cba anyway I just wanted to see what it looked like. Kind of like it...

Not sure why but I've heard this happens on a lot of 3GS'. When I flick my silent switch, nothing happens until I press firmly on the phone in the area of the switch. Like a connection has come loose or something. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you sort it? It's no longer under...

Come on own up! :lolup:

...but only over my 'ring sticker. It's gone right through the paint work as if they've took offence to the sticker :S
