Thanks for the pics @MarcB - glad you like the Trophy's replacement. :) Thanks also for coming over and introducing yourself. Mate, it was a genuine pleasure - you're a gent.

I concur! :) Don't even go there! Mind you, 'modern' red paintwork doesn't seem too bad these days... and the GT4 lives in darkness in the garage when not in use. I also fitted blackout blinds the other week. :) Thanks mate!

I couldn't have put it better myself, sir! :)

#165 may well be leaving my ownership in the coming few months, but a little bit of Le Clio B*stard Rouge will always live on with me! #redisthecolour #t44phy :LOL::ROFLMAO:

My last rebuild at BG cost me just over £1100 and that was with new rods (due to scoring). Sadly they only lasted ~1400 miles before they leaked. EDIT: I managed some 86,000 miles before they needed the first rebuild though, which I thought was pretty impressive.

I can only echo Tim's comment regarding ProSpeed in Cardiff - a fantastic system that is very well-built and at a sensible price. Charlie is happy to make it as loud, quiet, raspy, boomy, etc. as you desire.

Time for new tyres on the Cayman? :)

I'm really, really regretting taking my old system to the tip all those years ago. Oops.

Bend over and I'll fetch the lube, sir... :LOL::ROFLMAO:

Good luck... I believe these are incredibly rare and difficult to get hold of (no longer available IIRC).

Yeah, make sure you do tell him! :P Hahahaha! Seriously, he's really good and used to handle the workshop / Clio turbo build side of things at Engine Dynamics. He then went solo and has a (deserved) good reputation. I think I still have a Cup alternator / bracket setup that he wants... oops.

Ah yes, Cowboy Alex... :P Just kidding, he's one of the few people I would trust these days! :)

Hi mate, Portishead west of Bristol? If so then I could potentially meet you halfway at Magor services maybe at the weekend? I'm from the Caerphilly area. Otherwise I can post at no extra cost (240 all in). Cheers [emoji16]

Looks great, Ian :) The red 'pops' nicely. As for a machine polisher... I would highly recommend looking at Rupes Bigfoot. Perhaps not the cheapest but a very nice piece of kit and - with a bit of care and effort - great results can be had.

Yes sir, still available.

No problem mate! [emoji41]

I bought these brand new Mark Fish Trophy spec springs for my build but, alas, it was never to see the light of day. As a result I am looking to sell them on. They are absolutely mint and this is the first and only time I've opened them - to take a few pics. I would like what I paid for them -...

Lovely mate! :)

I have nothing much to add other than... hello Porsche Cayman friend!!!!! :D:):p Getting back on topic... I would be going with the Trophy every time. Even with the headaches and rollercoaster journey I've had over the last 12 years, it hasn't really dulled my love and enthusiasm for them.

Yup, the replacement will sweeten things no doubt! :) Very nice mate!

Sad times mate. Ride that rollercoaster of emotion!

I have for sale a brand new and unused set of Chris Powell conversion brackets. These brackets are for the 300mm setup and allow you to run the Clio 197 4-pot Brembos on your 172/182. They cost me £163.03, but I'm looking for £110 delivered. They are currently located near Long Eaton (between...

No problem, thanks! Good luck with the sale.

Hi Chris, Would you consider selling the PMS brackets separately? No problem if not. :)

Three choices really... BG Motorsport Cornering Force @Rik Perry (forum member) I would personally choose Rik but he is extremely busy now that the F1 motorsport season is in full swing, hence he might not have the time to do the work.

@DaveS - glad you enjoyed your time with #338 and thanks for your support and help along the way. All the best!

Well, at least it's the right colour... :)

Say hello to mine (#165) whilst you are there :)

The truly mint ones on ultra-low mileage command a premium. Within the last couple of years I've seen two sell for more - one around £16k and the other for a touch over £19k. You just need to find the right buyer! :) That said, I prefer a Trophy that I can take out and enjoy as opposed to having...

It's been an absolute pleasure @DaveS - I hope #338 goes to a home that appreciates and enjoys the car as you and your son have done. All the best and good luck with the sale.
