  1. Hello to you all.

    Today I took the plunge and brought a 2015 Rs 275 trophy.

    Hopefully will pick it up this week. I must say that I was shocked at how well they handle and go. It's standard apart from the Akra exhaust so I'll be looking for ideas soon.
     
  2. Akrapovic exhaust was standard on the Trophy.

    Welcome along btw. Get some pics up. Where are you based?
     
  3. I'll get some pics up when I pick it from the dealers. I'm based in West Midlands.

    Whats the usual mods done to these?
     
  4. Decat, remap, uprated pads & fluid.
     
  5. Hi joined a while ago but first time posting/replying to a subject as i am very interested in this topic.So sorry if what i post may be in wrong section etc!

    Just i have recently been hit from behind on a motorway 6 weeks ago and my standard 250 exhaust was damaged as well as rear bumper and the insurance company replaced my exhaust with a full akrapovic system as they could not get the correct back box after many times so i had to wait as they told me they had to get it from the factory in france,so because my friend is wanting to buy my car and is not interested in the exhaust i was wanting to sell it to someone who can give me their standard exhaust to swap plus cash
    Please advise
    Thanks in advance
     
  6. I understand your plan, but is it really worthwhile?

    Are you sure they've replaced the full Akrapovic system or just the back box? Seems a bit strange to be honest - the full system is around £2500 from Renault. Insurance companies aren't know for slashing out on upgrades.

    Just advertise the car with the exhaust as is and somebody else will surely pick it up.
