Mine used to do this also. Especially on cold mornings the first time you gave it any heavy right foot. Not done it since I've had the Milltek on though. When it was being fitted the bloke fitting it called me over to look at the old exhaust, he picked it up,shook it and you could hear water...

Had a Milltek fitted on Saturday - very happy with it. Well made, sounds awesome and transforms the look of the backend of the car. Big (tup) from me.

We'll have to draw straws for the loan of the Pug 106!

Agreed Cue. Due for the 3rd treatment next month - must give Graham a call soon.

As 196 won't be going anywhere near a track and I'm not really into "modding" I was planning on leaving everything standard (apart from the Permegard). However after seeing various 182's with aftermarket exhausts and thinking what a difference a proper pair of tail pipes makes to the backend...

I'm old and I've got one!! Mrs 196 keeps telling me it's about time I grew up...............never going to happen!!

Before Nick sold up Congleton was a bit of a Trophy hotspot there were 3 living within a mile or so of each other!!

Do it Nick - you know it makes sense!!

Heading up Canal Street at around 12.15 yesterday afternoon.

15000 for 196

You're right Cue, Nothing I can do about the scratch - didn't even notice it when I picked it up because it was dark - it's just my word against theirs. They are going to sort the wipers though as they took them off to take the windscreen out. Just hope she comes back with no other issues.

Took 196 in to have the water leak fixed under warranty last week. Three days later got the car back - leak fixed ok. However she's come back with more wrong than when she went in!! They've scratched the the plastic strip inside the passenger door sill - which they are denying!! There's now...

As far as I'm concerned every Pixies album was a classic - although in my humble opinion their best work was on Come on Pilgrim. I'm showing my age here when I say the first time I saw them was in 1988 at Rock City in Nottingham and then I think it was maybe a year later(the old memory isn't...

Taking advice from avatars? :wink: BTW, if you like Trompe le Monde you should pick up Bluefinger, Frank's latest release :twisted: Got it mate. Frank's a genius - always has been, always will be!!

Greatest band of all time mate!! Like people are saying, drive both - I didn't think there'd be a big difference between them - within 5 minutes of driving the Trophy I was like wow this is special and decided to swap there and then.

Having owned a 182 cup before the Trophy, I can honestly say it's worth the extra cash. Never once regretted swapping. Do it mate!!

Cheers Steve, No aftermarket stereo fitted, I'll leave it to Holdcrofts to find out where it's coming from next week. Drew

Noticed the car seemed to steaming up over the last week or so - didn't think too much of it because of all the wet weather. Just gone to give the mats a bit of a clean and discovered a puddle under the mat in the pasenger footwell!! Booked in at the stealers for a water check next week, they...

Gungo Place is called TBE Phone: 01260273848 Drew

Don't know where you're based mate but I ordered 2 from my local tyre place on Monday and they were delivered and fitted on Tuesday, no problems. If you're anywhere near the Northwest I can give you their number. Drew

Count me in Drew196

Hi Dico, I live in Congleton, work in Sandbach and occasionally drive through Holmes Chapel - so could've been me. Drew

Have you thought about one of those Clio Trophies?? I've heard they're quite good!! Save you some cash too!!

Friday night about 7.45 near to the hospital. Would have waved but didn't spot you until you'd just gone past me - daydreaming as usual!

#196 is on a 05 plate, it was registered just a couple of days before 55 plates kicked in - why they didn't hang on I don't know!! I know there are lower numbers than mine on 55 plates. Also #197 for sale on pistonheads is on a 55 plate.

Going to take the plunge and invest in September, had just about decided on the Yozza system - not so sure now.......... :?

12. rube79 (Si) 13.J07TROPHY(jay) (was near the stand with another two trophys!) 14.ash87 (wn05 wrc) 15.Drew196(DS05GHF) Cracking day, sorry we had to leave early before we had the chance to chat to some more of you.

Will be getting onto the M6 at Jct17 at around 06.15 if anyone's in the vicinity?

I had a 182 cup for 8 months before doing the decent thing. Had just sold my flat at a tidy profit and moved in with the soon to be Mrs196. Just popped into my local dealer for a bulb, spotted 196, fell in love and with the money burning a hole in my pocket couldn't resist - the deal was...

Before Nickb sold his there were 3 Trophies within a mile of each other in Congleton!!
