    Yozza Exhaust db rating

    Trophy owners average age

    In my short time here (a week) I get the impression that trophy owners seem to be older and more mature than normal RS owners. Is this a fair assumption? For the record i'm 28 and pick 480 up tomorrow.

    Which tyres for the Ring?

    I've been to the Nurburgring before with my standard tyres, but was wondering what people think is the best tyre for the job. I'm toying with the idea of a second set of wheels anyway with r888's or khumo's, but I don't know how well they would heat up at the ring. Would anyone bother...

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Right as an owner of a Trophy for the last few months we have all seen the horror stories surrounding the front dampers & the costs from the stealers involved in replacing them. Whilst looking into the dampers, you soon realise why they are 'so' good. Not your usual bolt on upgrade, but top...

    ESSENTIAL Trophy mod for sale

    Took off the car as she is going to a new home Can be fitted in 10 minutes and is the only mod I would say is a must for the Trophy - allows you to change the speed of the intermittent wipe. The standard Trophy stalk wipes the screen every nanosecond on the intermittent setting

    Just came back from a few days in the Isle of Wight. Took the Trophy (filled with camping stuff) and left the wifes 182 FF at home. Spend most of the week dodging poor road repairs. Sometimes when it 'appears' perfectly flat that can be even worse. Makes me think its too hard for carry good...

    I did it....

    =D> 410 miles on a tank, 40.8mpg.... just filled up with v-power and will be giving #274 a good clean this w/e as a reward for breaking the 400 mile per tank magical milestone. A few probably do this, but as they've mainly been town miles not motorway miles I think it's an achievement...... 8)
