Need to attend this at some point as the mix of cars is top drawer. My brother was there this morning in his M5 comp. He had a good chat with Chris Harris last time. Ticket only event.

Well said Ed. Joking apart if your car is stock and isn’t missing any of the important Trophy parts then enjoy and maintain it as and when required. Many parts are NLA or on back order but having said that you can still keep these old girls on the road.

We are not telling you! 😂

Thanks Nick. Your experience and access to the motor trade Is a great asset to us all. Anyone hunting for a Trophy will be right on the pulse with your regular updates.

Back over here again and saw these 2 old girls on the way home from a night out! A combination of a warm climate and incredibly high used car prices makes people hang to their cars for decades.

Apparently I live in Sunny Bournemouth. It’s not stopped raining since Xmas and being a builder I’m thinking Arks could be the way forward! Off to Spain tomorrow for a large dose of vitamin D!

If you’re over 5’10” tall buy them. I only wish he could make a set to fit the stock seats in my RB.

Probably the best Trophy modification you can do. Totally removes the feeling of driving a bus which all 182s suffer from. His waiting lists like snappy are long.

We all need to get out more!😂

Yes it’s lanolin. Leaves a semi Matt look without hiding anything. My front wheel arch 18 months after application.

My Trophy,RB and BG before all got the Lanoguard treatment. Very impressive and also its translucent so doesn’t look like you have covered the underside of the car in black tar to hide a multitude of rust. https://www.lanoguard.co.uk/

Might need to wear your thermals Nick!

Whats worrying me is some very nice cars are being offered for sale at the worst possible time. Im not convinced that all the sellers are forced to sell due to the usual excuse of baby on the way/ new house etc. My latest copy of Classic and Sportscar magazine is so padded out with dealer...

About 10 mins away from me if anyone is keen to have a 3rd party view and report on condition etc!

Really struggling as most of the cars I want are either too expensive or are rusty as hell!

RB has been resting in Espania since April and I have enjoyed many drives out since. Since leaving the EU it’s not so easy driving around in a UK plated car so I have a decision pending in April when her MOT runs out. I have 3 choices. 1. Pay the Matriculation fee of £1500 which puts her on...

What a shame. Could she be saved?

Pm sent

#151 would be available if you wanted continuity of vehicle for a new group test! 😎

Not there today but will keep an eye out for it before I come back home in a few days. I had a new red one in 89 and it was a right hoot to drive and back then 6.5 to 60 was bloody quick!

Think I might pop back up and see if it’s still there. Will try and take a few more shots

Filled up the RB and saw this old girl parked up nearby. Tired and obviously on aftermarket wheels. Early example as bumpers not colour coded. Copa was the Spanish version of the R5.

I’d be disappointed if it didn’t get to 20k all up

Merry Christmas to all of you guys and girls. Also a big thank you to Ben and Nik for keeping our fantastic club ticking along nicely for another year.

Thanks for your efforts so far Nick. The Collaboration between you and Ed sounds like a cracking idea for the 20th.

Nicks back! Thought you had already bought it! 😂

😂😂😂

I agree Ed. Also that area from the filler down to the wheel arch is a problem on these cars. If it’s a 3k 182 for fun it’s not that important. The Trophy attracts fussy sods like us who are willing to pay silly money for these cars. I’m just pointing out there could potentially be a...

After owning 3 of these 182 cars which luckily have all been corrosion free other than the usual surface stuff I would be concerned with the area around the fuel filler cap on this car.

Stan is your man. £50 labour for a cam/aux belt change and a service!
