Factory not taking orders on rs models
|
I placed a order for a trophy to replace my current trophy about 3 weeks ago, was told that the factory wasn’t taking any orders on any renaults till today. They are now accepting orders for non rs models but not rs models. Doesn’t anyone know why?. What’s the normal wait time from ordering to delivery? I don’t want to sell my current trophy to then find its not going to arrive till November and I decided I want to cancel the order!
Thanks
Gavin

Rumour is RS being wound down to make production room for EVs. Renault performance will be marketed only as Alpine and brand moved upmarket.

Hi Kirsty172,
Are you stating that that they are not set to make any more 300 RS trophy anytime soon or ceasing production? I also placed an order for a Trophy a few weeks ago and waiting to hear when the factory order book opens. Concerned it might be some time before they do.... Will they also close in August?
Thanks,

I was going to comment this doesn't fit inline with the substantial marketing expenditure Renault puts into the RenaultSport F1 team but just noticed it's now just the Renault F1 team. Still seems unlikely that they'd get rid of Renaultsport (or at least the cars).

It’s not that they have stopped making the rs. They are not taking orders for them atm.

Many thanks for help Gavin_Trophy. Fingers crossed they take orders soon.

Lucky you, ordered mine 1st April and still waiting on it coming in to country, was told 14th June in import centre but still not in yet

They normally have a 4week shut down and don't take orders
|

Original delivery date was September. Just got call from dealer that it’s in and can collect it tomorrow

What spec have you gone for with yours?
|
|
|

All the options apart from the sunroof. I live in Scotland don’t get the weather for a sunroof 😂
|
|
|
|
|
I lived in Scotland for a few years, and the sunroof would be perfect for the views, what put me off the sunroof was the headliner and pillars were then beige colour, where as normal it is black.
|

|
I’m going to get the roof carbon wrapped no need for sunroof. First thing doing in it is the NC500
|
|
|
|
|
If I went for a lighter colour I would of wrapped the roof black, but I have gone black for mine, wanted orange or yellow but was pre warned about delays in paint. Where in Scotland do you live?

I’ve went for flame red. Stay in Glasgow
|

Nice, first 1 I had chance to look at was flame red and did like it. I was over by Forfar on the east coast.

Decent man it was orange and a black one seen and I’ve got Clio 220 Trophy it’s Matt white so decided to go for the red. Cool I’ve got family in Forfar papas sister stays there

Seems to be a theme. Mine was ordered end of April for September delivery but it’s been brought forward. It’s been built and now on its way for transport. Also ordered it in Glasgow.

What colour have you gone for grozzy?
|
|
|
|
|
Dinky did you pick the car up?
|
|
|
|
|
No picking it up on Saturday work shifts so time doesn’t suit
|
|

Ahh fair enough, keep us up to date when you collect, did you order through a normal Renault dealer, or a actual r.s. Dealer
