Doubt it, as most cars are bought my experience track pilots and not your average 17 year old who'll rag the @r$e off it.

My mate broke a gearbox in his track spec cup, otherwise it was very solid. i would suspect that most drivers aren't the regular 'first time on track' types and really care for their vehicles so most won't be worn out as they'd be warmed up properly etc.

Doesn't look right, the colour contrast isn't enough to make the 'Renaultsport' bit stand out and the yellow diamond badge looks out of place against the blue, not my cup of tea personally.

Any ideas on the cost?

I remember clocking 47mpg in my 182 which had a dud of a engine in it, mind you thats travelling at 55mph for 160miles which is no fun.

Driven about generally mine averages 34mpg, and on the run to Cornwall @ 90mph it averages 37mpg, and thats with cams and everything else. Its not uncommon for 172's to hit 40mpg if driven respectfully.

uh oh!

Motorsport IS dangerous kids.

No it had twin pipes. Sorry about the Eaton Bray thing, I just remember you mentioning something in my last thread about Dunstable downs which made me think Eaton Bray for some reason.

didn't spot the reg in fairness, your Eaton Bray aren't you dan?

Spotted this afternoon, we tailed you around the car park in the Mrs' silver Fiesta. Had a CS sticker in the rear side windows and silver/black wheels.

I thought we were all going to that barn near steves house for another 'fund raiser'

likewise.

Have a guess what Steve drives? Then rethink your last illadvised statement.

they went to 'La Halford' for the design concepts thats for sure.

Sorry I'd love pop round for a chat steve but I'm away, I'd forgotten about the V6 which I guess is the exception which proves the rule. Bot obviously as its so different, it simply wouldn't be fair to judge it in the same sense as the other 2.0 varients.

Yep, totally agree. Bodykits and Laguna engines are classics it would seem.

High price tag?

No it doesn't which is why I've never understood the whole feeling towards the Trophy. Which in the cold light of day is just a spiced up 182 which has been around since the dawn of time.

But is it Roy? I mean my Monaco blue 172 was only imported in limited numbers (468) so by that reckoning its a classic to, no?

It gets mentioned on here and a few other sites about the Trophy being a 'future classic' every so often, which I find a little difficult to understand. To me the only classic is the orginal williams as every other RS Clio is a evolution of the orginal concept and not a fresh idea. Discuss.

go for it jay!!

Til we head out to Le Mans 2007!!! Pic from the easter road trip, just can't wait to be sat at the docks ready to get on the boat again.

;)

Nah, back to Bedford tonight.

Hardly a crash is it? I've seen worse damage done by people trying park.

Spotted you last night around 10:45 in the Mrs Festa.

24 carrat!
