    2024 Calender Idea

    I'm sorry I didn't pick up on this thread earlier. Seems a good idea to me! I'm happy for the photos I've taken/appear in to be used. (y) I can dig out the backups and see what I have available if that's agreeable with folks?

    LSD on Clio 182

    Sadly, I sold my Quaife LSD and gearbox a few years ago when I thought I was selling the car (following the turbo build troubles). However, I did get a fair bit of time behind the wheel with the LSD fitted and it is something I would happily do again if I were having the gearbox done. The fit...

    TrophyTracker Web Application

    Thank you, Ed - that's incredibly kind and I'm genuinely thrilled that it has been useful! I must admit that I never really imagined it would become as significant a project as it has become. It started out as a bit of a fun "homebrew" project in my spare time (I'm a software developer by...

    TrophyTracker Web Application

    Hi folks, I just wanted to provide (a very brief) update on the state of TrophyTracker. Work on TrophyTracker v2.0 is slowly happening in the background but, sadly, a change in priorities means I have very limited time to complete the re-design and development. I have the help of a good friend...

    Trophy on Salvage Market

    Ah cr*p, sorry... thanks to those posting up the Trophy number! I'd been sitting on this information but other stuff got in the way and I completely forgot to update the post! Glad it's been mentioned/noted.

    Trophy on Salvage Market

    No problem, Ed. Hopefully, that information (the Trophy number) will be forthcoming very soon and, of course, I will share the knowledge! Yes, I did manage to get the engine loom, thanks. I'm hoping that this might cure some of the recurrent issues I'm having (although, saying that, #165 has...

    Trophy on Salvage Market

    I have the private plate and the original VRN details, along with the VIN. I'm still awaiting info on which number it is. Once known, the owners register can be updated. (y)

    Low mileage, one owner Trophy for sale soon

    The end of an era. :( Stephen, it's been a pleasure mate. My very best wishes to you and J and thanks for the very enjoyable times and chats over several Welsh Weekenders!

    So What's Next....? Life after a Trophy

    Well, I'm really not sure... they are as bad as each other! :ROFLMAO: I think they decided to take Colin Chapman's famous utterance and monetise it, i.e. "Simplify, and then add lightness... and another £50k on top of list price..." (That 50k premium becoming a 200k premium once the flippers...

    So What's Next....? Life after a Trophy

    Indeed, Ed - as I would myself! Slightly off-topic, yet related to a few of the latest posts here, I have found that my desirability [for a given 1*2] was very much linked to how eager the car felt. I can't say that I've ever driven a badly handling RS Clio but I have certainly had experiences...

    So What's Next....? Life after a Trophy

    Well, it's quite simple really, Ed... Let me start at the beginning... (I have nothing to add). :ROFLMAO:

    Is the Clio Trophy forum....

    Thank you for the kind words, gents. Honestly, no thanks are needed as far as I'm concerned. I've met some great people thanks to this place, especially through the annual Trophy Weekender that is arranged through this very forum. Without wanting to sound like an elitist snob, I do think Trophy...

    Toyota GR86 Factory Allocation

    Hi folks, Apologies for the brief post but I have to move quite quickly on this! A friend has a factory allocated GR86 to sell, at the same price he paid - £32,495. As this is a new build the colour and gearbox choice is yours to decide. The estimated delivery time is Sep/Oct. Sorry this is...

    PPF recommended?

    Francis, the PPF has already come to my rescue twice - and it was as a result of the first incident that I decided to get it refreshed and go full PPF (originally the car had PPF only on the front bumper, bonnet, sills, impact areas around the wheel arches, rear wing and leading edge of the...
