    Today has seen Nik & family travel down from Falkirk, pick up three pairs from Ben in the Lakes, then continue their journey down to the south coast, stopping en route to drop off two pairs with me. Nik has kept one pair which he'll be gifting to @tucker220 when he's up in Warwickshire in the...

    If nothing can be resolved then I'm sure those who receive a pair will be happy to contribute an extra £20 to ensure nobody is left out of pocket. Plenty of other avenues to explore before then, good luck!

    Thanks Rik, I was thinking of heading that way on a weekend in July, and I'd like to deliver to the paddock area at the circuit, can you help out with that? ;)

    Just to keep you all updated, I need to unwrap all 26 separately wrapped items: While I'm hoping to do that this weekend I do have plenty on, and it's Mother's Day on Sunday, but rest assured it will be done ASAP. Once we know what we've got then I'll need to arrange the transportation of...

    For the second day running the south batch made it out on the wagon first thing in the morning but remain undelivered and are now back at the depot. Again. Still. The weather looks better tomorrow but I doubt they do Saturday deliveries, so I might have to 'work from home' on Monday. At least...

    According to the tracking they're out for delivery again today but looking at the conditions on my residential road I'd be amazed if they make it here today. Good things come to those who wait...

    My delivery is snow-where to be seen :( I don't expect that to change before next week.

    Any Trophy’s for sale around £7000?

    Don't rule out the 'full fat' 182. With both Cup packs fitted I think it's a great proposition. I'm not sure the 182 Cup is special enough to command special attention. A 172 Cup, however...

    Thanks for the various offers ladies and gentlemen, but before we start the distribution phase (and no, they've not arrived with me yet) we just need to cross the ts and dot the is then everything can be confirmed. The outstanding issue still remains, that we're 2 pairs short in the south...

    These are just taking up space, so happy if anyone wants to make any kind of offer... I appreciate they're only 195/45/16 and not 205/45/16 but you could pretend ;) If you'd like to see the photos I can send them to you or just check out my for sale posts on Cliosport.net and the Clio...

    What are the chances, Nik?! That's an incredibly kind gesture, thank you! If Nik does deliver to 'The Stratford Two' that still leaves us 2 pairs short in the south. Nik, assuming you have room for 4 sets in your vehicle, I could meet you on your way back down and collect another 2 sets. But...

    Couldn't agree more! EFA I count 16 people on the 'south' list and I'm only expecting to receive 13 pairs but I'm sure we can work something out. Hopefully the order and despatch goes smoothly then as soon as the 13 are in my possession I'll publish my storage costs ;)

    I've merged into a single list. I've also added locations where known (/guessed) in case we want to pursue the opportunity for further discount if shipped to a single location. 1) BenG (Lake District) 2) Ashtons99 (Doncaster) 3) Greatwhyte 4) Braddaz1 5) Mark (Jersey) 6) 317T (Tom) 7) pete...

    I wouldn't (/couldn't) do that to Mossy, his OCD would go into overdrive and I couldn't have that on my conscience ;) I agree though, there's plenty to think about. First and foremost let's get to 20 names. I wonder how many miles it would be to deliver to all (mainland UK) purchasers in one...

    Great work Ben, I think 20 is achievable. As for a single shipping location, I'm happy to receive and store. People can collect as and when they visit this part of the world (West Berkshire), or vice versa when I'm on my travels. Nobody is going to be in a rush for them after all. It could...

    If you can make 20% I'll put my name down. But based on the response I guess that would need to be all 25.

    Surely someone with deep pockets can facilitate the group buy and pick up all remaining stock, then hold the rest of us to ransom over the coming years.

    OEM Trophy Springs

    Incorrect. Cooksport springs don't offer as compliant a ride at low speeds on broken surfaces as I found the Eibach Sportlines did, but that's just my personal experience. Welcome aboard Ads! Can you define what 'better' means? That will help people give you the most objective response.

    Replacement bonnet - how?

    James, I'd also get one from a 182 being broken, and get it sprayed.
