Drove home tonight and the Trophy started to rev itself to around 3 - 3.5k on its own accord and the revs would only drop when changing gear. The problem went away and then came back, only to then display the orange dash light and enter limp mode. Car starts, seems to run fairly smoothly, just...
We recently fitted GAZ Gold Pros and Mintex Racing MDB2561 M1144 front brake pads to a customer’s Clio Trophy car, he then came along on one of our track days at Brands Hatch to give the upgrades a test, and this was the review he sent us after the day:
"I asked the Finishline team to refresh...
Just noticed this tapping/ticking sound recently and as far as I can tell it's only when the car's up to temperature. I had the cambelt, aux. belt, dephaser and water pump changed in the last 300 miles or so at SWR in Stirling.
I'll try and get a recording but for the time being-
Hard to...
Thought I would share some photos from tonight of the Trophy's current guise, still on winter wheels at the moment which I actually am starting to like, but I appreciate the fact its not to some peoples taste. Summer wheels are going back on next week when my summer tyres arrive. I've just...
Few photos for you guys of the Trophy I was working on late last week.
A previous customer of mine bought it recently. 1 owner from new, 65K on the clock. Lovely history, just a bit tired looking so we had it in for wheels off correction to restore some of that Trophy flair.
Was a hard one for...
Hi guys. Thought I'd knock up a little thread detailing the life of #456.
I don't have big plans for the car really, just wanted to make a timeline of things and give the car a bit of extra history.
I bought #456 in March last year from JohnnyE. I wasn't originally looking for a Trophy, but...

Afternoon everyone,
I'm not one to post on forums but I thought it would be rude not to share my new pride and joy with you. I only had my white 250 for about 18 months (14 when I put the new order in) and loved it but couldn't resist the new...

TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE
Hi all, I have been mulling over doing a build thread from when I bought the Clio over a year ago, so I have finally decided to bore you with the car’s progress to date.
A quick photo below of it sitting ready to go for its 2015 track outings before I run...

Had a very low pitched 'whistle' between 2 and 3k revs for the last 24 hours and filled the car with oil this afternoon. On driving back to work (fairly low revs) the car decided to make a noise, continue driving (just) and now sounds rough as nails.
The car still starts and idles for a...
Hi everyone, this is my first post on the forum so thought i would share my recent clio trophy purchase with you guys. its pretty much standard apart from an intake and a scorpion RS192 exhaust system, car has just ticked over 83k with full service history and is in super condition. First thing...
