Has anyone had problems with the paint on the trophy fading due to the sun, ?

hi, Been looking to get another car seeing as I have blown my car up at the minute. Now while I love my type R I can't really risk blowing it up again while doing track days. So had a look at swapping to a hot hatch. Looked at all the cars and decided it has to be the clio 182. Now what I...

Can this be a vote on the two cars above. It is not a discussion on which is better. Simply answer 197 or Trophy. Please don't just pick a trophy because you have one and are unable to see past it (although it is a great little car). Thank you. jsthomson

1) I have calculated that, when taking the car for an MOT, the probability the brakes fail is 1/10, the headlights fail is 1/4 and the wipers fail is 1/5. But what's the probability only one of the parts fails? 2) Point P lies on the curve y = x2 - 6x - 16 where m = 0. What are the...

A very sad thing happened to me this evening. I pulled into Shell to get some Optimax, picked up the nozzle out of its cradle and, as I moved it towards the filler cap, the rubber hose somehow pulled out the adjacent nozzle, which crashed down on to the side of my car. Owch. It's made a very...

=D> ....i think people are finally starting to realise trophy's are amazing cars and people can't keep selling them for peanuts!!...mine was £9k last september there is no way on earth i would let it go for under £7k especially as it took me over 8 months to source such a minter (093)

Hi everyone, I'm a 23yr old Belgian guy, I've always adored the Trophy since I first read about it in Evo. Some things kept me from buying though, as a student my budget is quite limited (low GBP came to the rescue), the fact that it'll be RHD (prepared to live with that) but most of all... I'm...

Hi, I've got a couple of questions about the clutch/gearbox on my Trophy and I wanted to see if anybody else had experienced the same things. 1. Being able to beat the synchro in 5th gear sometimes? This has only happened really occasionally, but there have been times where I've changed from...
