Interesting indeed....

Great update, Ed - and a cracking time too! :cool:

I have to confess that I did not know about this event! Unfortunately, I will be at Cadwell Park for the annual Cliosport Festival event with a few fellow owners from these forums. Might have to keep an eye on this event for the future...

Great update again, Ed - thanks! It's a shame the conditions weren't on your side this round but still a great experience nonetheless!

Hold on... I dispute the bit that states a full service, including cambelt and dephaser, costs around 600 quid! Maybe 10 years ago! I was talking to Mick at Diamond earlier this evening and we often talk prices and parts.... you're looking well north of a grand these days for genuine and...

You'll soon get used to them, @chip2257 - not everyone can be young and hip like other moderators on here... 🤫:ROFLMAO:

I would agree - look for an enthusiast-owned example as close to stock as possible. And maybe consider something like a Quaife in the future if needs be. Whilst I am all for stock/standard (honestly, guv!) the LSD does add "driver value" if not monetary value! I won't derail your thread talking...

Something like a Quaife LSD on the Trophy is a worthwhile upgrade and probably one of the very few modifications I would recommend. Any jobs going, Chris? :ROFLMAO:

Ooft (sucks through teeth)... that's going to need a lot, Jules. Probably get written off. I have 500 quid here with your name on it if that helps. Hold out your hand. :ROFLMAO: It's good to see 307 getting some love. :cool:

"A" is for "Awesome" - so it's plenty good enough!

Ah - thanks Ed. I think I was thrown a little by the apparent positioning of the jack in relation to the subframe mounting point. I do actually jack and axle-stand in the same way with #165. I get somewhat paranoid and fidgety when it comes to having the car jacked up and I am not the one doing...

Looking good, mate! At Harewood, I would grab a doggie bag so that you can walk the track and not miss breakfast... :ROFLMAO: Ed, a quick question for you... the jacking point. Where are you jacking up against on the Cup's underside? I can't quite work it out from the photo...(y)

I knew it! I always thought this myself, but never had the wheels without tyres on to weigh and compare! My current track wheels (on the Trophy) are Cup Turinis and I always thought they felt heavier! :ROFLMAO:

No luck so far in hunting down the number... 🔎

Sounds like you've done yourself proud and set yourself up nicely for what comes next... congratulations, Ed! Enjoy the experience!
