I've noticed alot of people go on about the Trophy as if its the best thing since sliced bread, but does any one see it as merely a Clio Sport whats had a few parts stuck on from the Reno spare parts bin!?

Bit of a crappy pic from my phone and the car needs washing too...
I bought it from ktec, quality of the exhaust looked spot on to me.
I'll get a sound clip of it some time as it sounds very nice :evil:
I have 182 wheels, a 182 look alike exhaust, cup spoiler... maybe I should have...
Just ordered myself a K&N typhoon for my 172 mk2, hope it fits as K&N only list this for the cable throttled 172's. Also ordered myself a Ktec 182 look alike exhaust and should be receiving my matched inlet from GDI. :D should have a busy weekend ahead!
I need to replace my exhaust as it appears to be falling off, I have decided to go for a made up stealth. All I want is a stainless steel exhaust which will last longer than the crappy standard 1, no loss in power(gain if possible) and dont want it to sound any louder if possible.
What size...
Replacing the brake fluid on my 172 and having a few problems...
1/ I have connected a clear pipe onto the bleed nipple and loosend it off, gave it a few pumps. The fluid coming out is clear whilst im pumping but once i stop bubbles come through, I have left the bubbles to clear but hours...

My brother was around delivering freshly baked loaves :D in the bottom 1.

Called the local Reno dealer for a 36k service, conversation went something like this…
Me: Could I have a quote for a 36k service for a Clio sport 172
Reno: £270 Inc vat
Me: Does that include the AUX belt?
Reno: no… that’s not until the 72k mile service
Me: no that’s the cam belt, I just...

*Not sure if fitting a spots cat warrants a guide as it is quite simple but thought I would do 1 any way*
I fitted a Janspeed sports cat today to my 172 (2003) and have produced a quick guide to help any 1 else thinking of doing the same. Even though it is a basic job it can take a while...
My Clio 172 mk2 (2003) was experiencing a grinding / nocking noise when accelerating hard in 1st and sometimes in 2nd. I took it to Reg Vardys (local reno dealer) who have fixed it :) by adjusting / replacing the gearbox mounts (I think thats what they did :o ). I just thought I would post this...
Has any 1 tuned/modded their 1.6 clio?
If so what mods have you done and what hp can you expect to achieve?
Im just interested as a guy on the coupe forum claims his 1.6 16v megane has 134hp (110 standard) at the fly and (101hp at the wheels) from a service and a remap and he can keep up...
When fitting my pipercross viper I removed the original air feeds but couldnt remove this...

I have just had my Clio 172 mk2 repaired (front and back) and was looking at the bonnet of the car and wasnt sure if the garage had lined the bonnet up correctly with the front grill. The issue i have is the bonnet over hangs the front grill and i wasnt sure if it was supposed to be like this...
A few questions on the BBR Clio 202
Would i be better just purchasing the mods seperatley myself?
Does any other company offer anything similiar?
Would I still get 202hp with a 172?
What does every 1 think to the Clio BBR Morego 202?
Im only asking as my 172 is possibly wrote off and im...
3 weeks ago I was involved in an accident on the M1 north bound (not my fault might i add). This has resulted in the possibilty of my Clio sport 2003 model being wrote off! Does any 1 know how the insurance works out the value of the car (how much I should get).
I have looked on Autotrader and...
I have managed to sell my motorcross bike so have got some spare cash and was thinking of improving the performance on my 172 mk2. Im not into the modding scene and dont want my car to look or sound modded. I have already fitted an after market panel filter.
Could any 1 answer these queries I...
I can remeber some saying they could get hold of 172 engines but I cant find the thread through searching. The reason Im asking is my brother has a megane coupe and is thinking about putting a 172 engine in it, does any 1 know who was selling the engines or if this can be done?
Came across this on a Fiat Bravo forum. Any 1 crashed there 172 latley? I think there talking S**T personally.

I have just bought a Clio 172 and took it in to get its 24000 miles service. The Mechanic has just stated over the phone to me that my car has a rear shock that is leaking and its £100ish to get it sorted and the shocks arnt covered in the warranty. Is this correct. My car is less than 2yrs old...
