    Sunday Times today - Driving section centre spread

    Yeah I have... I was expecting a nice Trophy bit in it. BUT it seems to be a rush job. They basically reviewed the 182 Cup I think or even just the 182 in about 5 lines, and slapped a Trophy pic in there. If you are buying the magazine just for the Hot Hatch thing thinking it might have a nice...

    Running in advice (again)

    I couldn't be bothered to be honest after about 300 miles. I then let the engine warm up, but after that just drove it semi sensibly. That means gears changes mostly around 3500, some at 4500, the odd one or too at 5500. Now its at 680 miles ish and I am looking at the odd gear change at 6500...

    Warning Light

    And more importantly, if they do blame it on the IK, you will have to pay full costs for all investigation work.

    TROPHY DOWN

    Amen to that. Keep pressing them. If you have heard anything for 2 days, make a phone call. It took me 2 months to sort out my crash, but that was because I didn't understand to amount of effort in chasing everyone constantly...

    Swirl marks

    Cool! My company is called Sonus. :) And no, you are definitely not the only person with swirl marks. I have swirl marks over the whole car. So many people do such a crap job these days. Luckily for me I know I guy who can sort it too...

    Warning Light

    Hmm. Probably not. Its not that common really for a mod to do this. That means you need it checked out. Did the car act differently when the light came on? Anyway, don't panic right now, see what the garage says. Hopefully they will not take exception to the induction kit. It may be an...

    Warning Light

    There are many reason this engine management light may come on. Have you modified your car in any way? It maybe a genuine problem and could be anything to do with the engine. I had it come on once due to my Pro-Speed exhaust being a bit free flowing for the sensors own good. Sometimes its...

    TROPHY DOWN

    Did you take any pics? It would be interesting (for us) to see the damage so we'd have a better idea. Like Stromba says, if the impact is bad enough, the car will not be right. But I would have though if the subframe is ok, there shouldn't be much that can't be fixed??? And surely a new shell...

    TROPHY DOWN

    I am very sorry to hear this news. I hope you are ok. As for the car, check the roof for creases too, although I doubt the impact was big enough. Like faze said, check the suspension an inner side of the alloys for damage. I pray that your suspension is ok, as they will be horrendous to try...

    Why did you buy a Trophy ?

    Stromba, ffs, be quiet. You have wrecked this thread. Either tell us why you bought your Trophy (obviously you can't so should have no retort) or BE QUIET. If you want to start another thread on Heel and Toe in a Clio (which I can do easily) then thats fine. Anyway... my story is eerily...

    Trophy tyres

    Is there any grading to the softness of a tyre, or do you just have to know which is softer than the other?

    Optimum gear change

    It only briefly flashes. If you ask me you shouldn't be watching for it! Look out the windscreen! I don't think either that its an optimum gear change light. I think its more of a, you'd better change gear NOW!
