Great Cars. Me and the wife had a pair.


Trophy had the special factor but a Full Fat with Cup Pack was a cracking car. When you run them back to back you notice the trim differences.


During my ownership had to refurb the dampers not the end of the world.


Big N/A engine in Small Car. the 197/200 after moved the handling & brakes on but lot that responsiveness that the 182 had through no weight.


My Ideal would be a 182 FF with Cup Pack & a set of Recaro's in Liquid Yellow. Job Done.

Find the EVO article from 05 where the back-to-back tested a Trophy with a M6.

On back roads the Trophy could not be shaken.

I've been looking at a few Clio's, want to be paying under 2k, don't think i will be getting a top model, or i will be treating it same a scooby.

Been offered one for £1200 but had done just over 110,000 miles, had loads spent on it

Although thinking getting lower miles and pay abit more. Cup's seem to be over 2k

Never know if i like it that much i might sell it and buy a fill fat version

Jay make sure you drive both a Cup chassis and non-Cup chassis...will help you make an informed decision :)

Here's mine in current form. Needs mapped after the new forged engine went in and has a GT2860RS turbo on it.

Bang for buck, you cant beat them for fun on track.

will try although as said, most cups are going for over 2k, and i don't want to buy anything to mint.

Want something i won't be scarred to throw around
