Yep it was owned by a guy on ClioTrophy.co.uk called Brian (rallye6).
He switched to the Trophy from a Scooby but couldn't get used to the small cabin of the clio so part ex'ed it for an 03 WRX PPP.
Here it is:
There won't be a Trophy 2, not in the MKII clio shape
Yeah, Capsicum red has been used for years on clios. 10-15 years ago red cars were common as, but in these days of metallic colours, the red is a striking colour and stands out.
Yeah there's some serious jap machinery out there for not a lot of money on the second hand market now.
Thing is I think most people make the decision on wether they are buying new or used for various reasons before they start choosing which car to go for.
You could always get something...
Such as? I think most new cars that are quicker are quite a bit more than the 13-14k Trophy's were sold at or even 15.5k if you stick with list prices.
Yeah, you're entitled to your opinion, fair enough no problems there.
I just think its a shame we can't all appreciate each others cars rather than looking for an opportuinity to discredit it (especially based on random clips of video).
But then this would be a seriously boring place if...
I'm perfectly calm Neil trust me. For someone that doesn't care you just seem to have a lot to say about it in this and threads in the past. You dont see the fuss about them? Fair enough, you don't own one so no need to worry.

All the...
Errrrm... The Cup was running semi-slicks...... :rolleyes:
No way could carry the same speed in high speed corners with normal tyres. Trophy was down on the straights yes, but then its not quite so run in as a 50,000 mile tracked cup
Don't listen to him, he just forgot to put some air in them ;)
Best tyres i've used, and have coped quite nicely on the trackdays i've ran them on too.
Bibendum still has his head on mine after a two full days and two evenings on track plus 7500 miles on the road so sidewalls must be stiff...
