    Best Roads In Wales

    You’re not wrong, it’s a classic. One of my favourites is the stretch between Forge just outside Machynlleth, south east to Llanidloes. It’s such a varied 18 miles that’s equally good in both directions, with awesome views along the way.

    Trophy Sales on Collecting Cars

    I wonder if the person who lost out on #001 is in the hunt for this one? If so, this could go on for a bit. Pass me the Pinot Capsicum

    2024 Calender Idea

    Lovely idea, I’m all for it. I wouldn’t take any out, but I’d add the one in (perhaps September) of multiple reds at the Elan Valley. Loads of us have got that same shot but maybe @SharkyUK has the best original image?

    Standard exhaust?

    We all love our Trophys but how many of us crave the true OEM look? Generously let’s call it 10% of 500. Then look at non-Trophys and I can’t imagine another 50 owners would be interested, these are after all an incredibly talented hot hatch but at the budget end of the market where most folks...

    Barn Find 31k Trophy on eBay

    Selling the car on behalf of a friend, the car is in NI and payment to be made via bank transfer… that would put me off a little.

    So who’s good with the spanner’s these day’s?

    Some alternatives for consideration… ARM in Newbury. Andy Reid was a Renault master tech with decades of experience and often has a Trophy (or few) in the workshop. He used to run a Megane coupe with F4R and Sadev sequential box, alongside his 205 rally car. Great guy. Select Motorsport in...

    Is the Clio Trophy forum....

    I’m on some dreadful groups where I question whether any members have a double-digit IQ, but this is a lovely place to be. Perhaps it’s the limited numbers, perhaps the desirability of the “Trophy experience” that brings pure and like-minded individuals. I know many friendships have started here...
