That is stunning.

I've just been looking at 182 Cup Alloys on Ebay, are the Trophy alloys standard?

Yes they are standard on the Trophy and 172cup, but the 172 cup are 15's and 195, (i think, i sure i will be corrected if im wrong), the Trophy are 16's and 205, speedlines, there is a few places you can get them from, here is one..

Both the cup and the Trophy have 16 inch turini's, different offset (I think) and obviously different colour. I loved my Trophy, out of the box best car I've ever driven. Until tonight, didn't think a Clio could go quicker.

Sorry but forgot to put my old GTI-6 up..

If i had some spare cash this would be my track day car, lots o ffun in the twisty bits, nothing compared to the Trophy though.

Bizarre, I've also owned a RB 182cup, a Trophy, and a 306 (rallye)

Seriously, a GTI-6 on a track with a little bit of engine work done and some decent suspension, that would be a good combo for a track day car. Obviously not as good as my Trophy but still, a cheap, fast and mint handeling car..

Media section, i think your right!

IMO, although less capable, the rear end adjustability of the 306 made it the most fun car I've ever owned.

Wouldnt say it was the most fun, more like less scary. In the wet if you go around a corner too fast in he GTI-6 and it slides it felt easy to control, the Trophy feels easy aswell in the wet but just more scary.
What i mean is, in the 6 during a slide it was fun, in the Trophy im not used to it sliding, so when it does, for that 0.2 of a second before it grips again i am thinking, s**t, im going to hit that curb.
BTW i actually think on a track the Trophy would kill a GTI-6.

No doubt, Trophy would monster a 306.
