Thank you, Ed! Incr-Ed-ible. Wonderful. Thank you for your time, expertise, and passion for all things Trophy; which clearly comes through in the production quality of the calendar and associated pack.

Thanks, Ed!

Ed, I can only agree! It's a fine road, and one that demands respect if you intend to "make progress"... I may have, on occasion, spent an hour or three enjoying the road before partaking in a little afternoon tea at the cafe up high at Loch Katrine, where the paddle steamer come'eth and go'eth...

That looks a lot like Duke's Pass between Aberfoyle and Loch Katrine. I hope you're having a great time and thanks for all your work, Ed.

Here's a better picture of when I had all three of my "Trophys" at Diamond Motors...! :ROFLMAO:

Just as an aside... having spoken to Mick (Diamond Motors) and a few others, it seems as though the dephaser is getting more difficult to source. In fact, I'm pretty sure he said it is NLA... to the point where one or two specialists have considered offering an additional dephaser refurb. It's...

Dehumidifier to keep excess moisture in control, on axle stands (unless you plan to roll it out every other week or so), and on a decent trickle charger. That's what I would do if I didn't use my Trophy as the daily hack. I'm not sure you'd need much more than that if it's in a decent garage...

As a few others have said, I'd be happy to purchase an additional calendar should there be any remaining. Thanks again for doing this. :)

Thank you so much for this, to you Ed, Nick, and those who have contributed. I'll place my order later when I arrive back home. Thank you.

Good man! I'm off for two weeks from next Friday and will be taking my GT4 along parts of the Weekender route for some Autumnal fun.

And a few cheeky shots of #165...

A random selection from past Trophy Weekender events...

Yes, please. Hi, @photo_ed / @NickReilly063 - sounds like a great idea. :) Apologies, I've not been around much lately and have much going on, but I am interested. My Trophy is still being regularly hammered and used daily and is as fun as it has always been. I'll have a look as I must have...

Thanks for the well-wishes, appreciate it. Yeah, a meet/greet and drive would be great. The Trophy membership is spread far and wide so it might only appeal to those closer to the decided location/route but I expect more would be interested in a Weekender next year (or, indeed, a 20-year...

old = wise (y):ROFLMAO: I think a 20-year celebration event would be a great idea. I'm not sure about the Welsh Weekender though this year. Personally, my health is very bad at the moment to the point where I can't drive some days (not for any great distance at least). Hence, I'm a bit...

I'm sorry I didn't pick up on this thread earlier. Seems a good idea to me! I'm happy for the photos I've taken/appear in to be used. (y) I can dig out the backups and see what I have available if that's agreeable with folks?

Sadly, I sold my Quaife LSD and gearbox a few years ago when I thought I was selling the car (following the turbo build troubles). However, I did get a fair bit of time behind the wheel with the LSD fitted and it is something I would happily do again if I were having the gearbox done. The fit...

Thank you, Ed - that's incredibly kind and I'm genuinely thrilled that it has been useful! I must admit that I never really imagined it would become as significant a project as it has become. It started out as a bit of a fun "homebrew" project in my spare time (I'm a software developer by...

Hi folks, I just wanted to provide (a very brief) update on the state of TrophyTracker. Work on TrophyTracker v2.0 is slowly happening in the background but, sadly, a change in priorities means I have very limited time to complete the re-design and development. I have the help of a good friend...

Ah cr*p, sorry... thanks to those posting up the Trophy number! I'd been sitting on this information but other stuff got in the way and I completely forgot to update the post! Glad it's been mentioned/noted.

No problem, Ed. Hopefully, that information (the Trophy number) will be forthcoming very soon and, of course, I will share the knowledge! Yes, I did manage to get the engine loom, thanks. I'm hoping that this might cure some of the recurrent issues I'm having (although, saying that, #165 has...

I have the private plate and the original VRN details, along with the VIN. I'm still awaiting info on which number it is. Once known, the owners register can be updated. (y)

The end of an era. :( Stephen, it's been a pleasure mate. My very best wishes to you and J and thanks for the very enjoyable times and chats over several Welsh Weekenders!

Well, I'm really not sure... they are as bad as each other! :ROFLMAO: I think they decided to take Colin Chapman's famous utterance and monetise it, i.e. "Simplify, and then add lightness... and another £50k on top of list price..." (That 50k premium becoming a 200k premium once the flippers...

Indeed, Ed - as I would myself! Slightly off-topic, yet related to a few of the latest posts here, I have found that my desirability [for a given 1*2] was very much linked to how eager the car felt. I can't say that I've ever driven a badly handling RS Clio but I have certainly had experiences...

Well, it's quite simple really, Ed... Let me start at the beginning... (I have nothing to add). :ROFLMAO:

That's awesome, Andy!

Thank you for the kind words, gents. Honestly, no thanks are needed as far as I'm concerned. I've met some great people thanks to this place, especially through the annual Trophy Weekender that is arranged through this very forum. Without wanting to sound like an elitist snob, I do think Trophy...

Hi folks, Apologies for the brief post but I have to move quite quickly on this! A friend has a factory allocated GR86 to sell, at the same price he paid - £32,495. As this is a new build the colour and gearbox choice is yours to decide. The estimated delivery time is Sep/Oct. Sorry this is...
