You are sadly correct. Oh well! :( it was fun while it lasted...

I have got a halfords touch up kit, specifically made for the Trophy's "capsicum" red paint. I have used this once to touch up a microscopic mark on my car, but now that i have sold it i still have this left over. Cost a tenner from Halfords, only after a fiver for it now! Anyone need it...

Typically, just as my car goes out of warranty, the alternator packs up! I have looked at euro car parts and they want a criminal £223 quid for a new one. Does anyone know a good place to get a reconditioned one, or has anyone got a spare they would like to sell? Also, is the alternator from...

It is worth the purchase, it is a double page spread about the trophy / 197 cup and there is quite a big article about Clio V6 vs other "nuts" cars (like that crazy turbo beetle rsi, mental nismo micra and so on). It is a good read.

If i can just throw my hat in the ring too: >It seems you have missed the point of these cars if you mention "one touch window controls" but neglect to mention Handling" and steering feel in your review. >Grip and handing are 2 very different things. >I am happy to say that i have driven...

It is short, but sweet. The magazine also has a feature on the clio V6 so is worth the purchase anyway!

absolutely. Brilliant write up. But then i would say that... :oops: :P

I have just received this month's copy of Performance Car magazine and there is a little review of the Trophy vs the a 197 cup! :D check it out (it should hit the shelves of WH Smiths in the next few days i guess). I would scan a copy but i don't have a scanner or the know how to put it on...

It was a 997 - one of their current press cars (the RHD silver one in all of the press shots) I work for Caterham Cars as the Marketing Co-ordinator. A lot of what i do is taking cars to press events and liaising with the journos. On this particular day i had taken our new Superlight R500 to...

actually, it was yesterday now - don't know why i wrote that title!

At 194mph! (not on the road of course - at bruntingthorpe) You know a car is fast when it gets the traction control light flashing when you change into 4th gear at 130mph... With my job i have experienced extremely fast cars all the time, but have never had a real chance at a high speed run...

Right, had a bit of an accident involving a 5 litre bottle of Comma's finest 5w/40 motorsport oil emptying itself into the boot of my car. Bugger. After trying to soak it up with rags and driving around for a few weeks with a permanent headache i have spent several hours using every detergent...

This is so odd - i was going to post almost exactly the same thing to the letter! I ordered both keyring and sticker well over a month ago - sticker arrived after a couple of weeks, still no sign of the keyrings. Can someone confirm that my order was recieved for them? (i ordered 2 - cant...
