    55 Plate Trophy Available

    In alter-ego 'cardealer' mode - I have #223 in stock. 55 plate and 18250 miles, in good condition throughout. Self-reg plus one private owner and serviced by Rentech on schedule in addition to an extra oil change at 6000m. Priced at £10995 - open to some discreet negotiation around this...

    197 Offer (If anyone's really thinking of changing!!)

    Through a broker who mailed me. But I can do p/x unlike many other brokers who have them up for the same money. Personally it doesn't make sense to me to support these and 225 registrations with bonuses, they should be kept a niche car.

    197 Offer (If anyone's really thinking of changing!!)

    Definitely offered a Trophy by someone who was going to buy a 197 but maybe not a CT forum regular. I don't think they will drop much lower than this new for a while which does leave a bit of a gap between 197 and late low miles 182s.

    197 Offer (If anyone's really thinking of changing!!)

    This just in my inbox. New Clio 197 incl Metallic for £13995 OTR with 12m RFL. There's a six week delivery time, any further info just pm me. One or two have swapped Trophy or 182 Cup for 197 and I'd always look at a p/x. Cheers, Steve.

    Trophy... what value

    That remains to be seen. IMO on sale at market value! As Arthur Daley would say, "Overheads Terrence, overheads" :)

    Trophy... what value

    A few had thought about the car but nobody offered to buy or come down so bought the car a week or so after advert. Super cond all-round just deciding what to do with it. Really interesting owner too, always makes the job worthwhile.

    The beast has landed!

    In my day they regularly lost cars and they just arrived with zero / low miles. However, it could have been anywhere. Nice looking thing though.

    06 Plate Trophy(s)

    Aha and all that spec LOL I spent hours searching the web for a suitable light aircraft picture for the header and gave up - going for the aviation header instead! Next up maybe an EE Lightning - fav all time plane.

    06 Plate Trophy(s)

    There's quite a few cars that don't book, but appear on the CD versions of the guides. The Trophy doesn't book as it's too specialised. But like anything nowadays you have to research Autotrader and pick your way through the EBAY scam ads to evaluate a likely retail price, just work backwards to...

    197 Cup and Trophy?

    I think life's too short to read all that. In summary, I would generally pay £1000 more for a 182 FF Cupped with Recaros, and sell almost straight away - they will continue to be a sought after car. (Although they have become very colour specific now) The Trophy is and will continue to be one...

    RHD & LHD Trophy required.

    Actually I didn't notice until you mentioned. Funny that last night you, wrightyrs and myself were all online and I thought about the connection. Up to 25 now. I've possibly done more miles in them then some people have covered in their own. Thanks for the star, if it's on sales I suppose 50...

    mini2 is the benchmark terrible forum. The minimalism of this site is what I like about it. As soon as you introduce banner ads you lose the appeal.As much as i would be pleased to sponsor, a nominal membership fee for all would be the way ahead, we all know who we like using without banners and...

    The danger is that it starts to look like some of the Golf and MINI sites. A bloody mess!

    Golf GTI 1.8T 180 Anniversary.

    Hi WRS, seen some pics now of the car and not in original finish, different wheels and dark glass, looks OKayish if you like that kind of thing but I know that anyone who wants one of those is going to want an original look. Nice miles and owners but don't think this is going to happen. I am...

    It's been discussed but never moved forward. If I continued to sell a similar volume at sensible margins I would be interested in a collaboration.

    Golf GTI 1.8T 180 Anniversary.

    Anyone familiar with these and what they fetch. been offered a nice sounding black one in p/x but silly (to me) prices on forums and online. Great looking car but just can't see them making the £11000 + they are advertised at. Discuss. LOL

    There seems to be more exclusivity with the two stars haha.

    Calling all V6 fans

    I'd have imagined that you could stay in front by making up time in the corners... there's a great historic touring car series right now with an MGBV8 doing that week in week out to more powerful cars.

    4th star - eBay?

    As a non-Trophy owner, or a temp one at best!! Thankfully I've never been one for convention!

    Calling all V6 fans

    I don't think the prices will soar (over enthusiast!!!!) but they might level off and be back to last list price in say 15 years. Already V6255 are advertsied for far too much money on Autotrader etc. Reality prices are quite a bit less. I enquired after a low mileage 05 plate and he wants...
