i looked at the clio trophys but i couldnt justify spending 10k+ on a car the same age which is almost the same!
i didnt buy the 182 for all out performance or to trackday it etc, just wanted a nice comfy car which is has the power there for when i need it, not just a crappy 1.2!
agreed
I have my valver for fun, i brought the 172 for a bit more reliablity and comfort on the motorways.
I dont see the point of a cup/trophey unless you want to track it, and tbh you can have a full fat 172 air con, leather, etc etc for example 7k, or a cup with all the nice stuff ripped out and just a tad lower for 8k??!! crazy - renault saw those coming who brought one.
imo cup and trophey are not justified by the price, get a 17/182 FF, cheaper option and still a v nice, quick(ish) car
or you can be really sensible and not but a renault
