I think that none of the guides should include the Trophy seeing as they are so wrong in their valuation. Glass's used to have a valuation which was just as low, maybe they have withdrawn it due to low sales volume or even my complaint.

And so it ends Sorry to bring back an old thread like this, but thought I'd round the issue off as I've just heard from the financial ombudsman and got his recommendation. After 2 years and 4 months, hundreds of hours of research and document generation I have been offered an extra £300...

Seeing it again, it doesn't seem much at all. Had a PM from someone that has bought the car from salvage. Nice to know that I won't be repairing it myself now. Had no time to sort out the valuation stuff yet, but still nothing within 10% of their valuation. Looks like the car guides are a...

Had an accident the other week in the Clio, everyone ok, car was driveable, not my fault, but going through as a 50-50 AFAIK. Body blow today when got a message saying it was a write-off! Damage to passenger side between the axles but am shocked as the coachworks thought it wouldn't be. The...

I keep looking out for you, but not seen you yet. Often pop in to Brampton to the Co-op or use the back lane to Grafham as an alternative to the A14.

That was me. Don't normally resort to such tactics but was late for work. #322 and slightly different reg, but can't imagine it can have been anyone else.

1 could have been me, was on my way to work, though would have been nearer 8am or just after if it was me.

Went through the 50k barrier last week. Have done about 6k since I got in in May/June

Good news (for me), I am saved from the chop, so will continue gleefully zipping round the Northants, Cambs, Beds borders as the T will be staying with me.

Very nice, haven't got round to selling my Puma yet, will always have a soft spot for them. Have you posted it on the Puma forums? Puma People & Puma Project are the 2 that I visited.

Not me, Huntingdon is as far East as I venture usually.

Watch it online, I've not had over the air tv for a few years and haven't missed a race. And with iPlayer could even pause it to go the loo or get a drink, though I suspect the race on iPlayer is at risk now.

Looks like I will be made redundant soon, so am thinking of parting with it after just 2 months :cry: if I win the bare knuckle fight and keep my job then it will be kept, but I am realistic and expect to be out, so the cash would be a handy buffer with the wife on maternity leave. It isn't...

Do cheap golf clubs or DVD boxsets come with the 3rd star? Knew there was a reason for buying the Trophy

Passed, with advisories on rear tyres. S&G have a decent deal going on as they've changed management. For an up front fee of £47.95 they give all sorts of discounts on work but also include 2 MOTs, which on their own normally come to £85, so can get this years done and then next year's for a...

Fingers crossed for you both that it goes smoothly, though I'm sure she'll have petrol coursing through her veins already. Our 2 were both very late and delivered by section in the end so we aren't expecting this one to put in an appearance early. Takes away a lot of stress by having a planned...

Your powers of deduction are impressive Mr Brown. :wink: Thanks for the info Aaron, I'll need to stay local though - will be on paternity leave from Wednesday.

Couldn't find a local place to do it without a booking. Oh well. Will have to sit on the drive until next week.

Fingers crossed. Not expecting any problems, but you never know.

Wouldn't say the Puma is a hatch, but it does mean I have 2 from the list :D

Not picked up my Trophy yet, so definitely no plans to sell it :mrgreen:

Haven't seen Duncan for a while, I expect he is still into his Alfa's. I'd hate to guess what one he has now. After the Cinq I had an old VTEC Prelude that has 200k miles and cost a fortune to keep on the road for 11 months. Sold it to a guy who came on the train from Blackpool after work and...

Had a look at this a little while ago and was very close to buying it - just got a slightly better deal for me on another T. If you are looking for a T I fully recommend this one as a top notch example to my untrained eyes and Steve comes across as a genuine, friendly bloke. AFAIK car is...

Nice to see you on here too. Congrats to you and Emma on your impending arrival, and can fully recommend the Recaro kids seats as we have been using one for the last year. Glad you still have the 'grale & a Cento in there somewhere, though your old turbo really was fantastic. Have you been...

Didn't notice if there were mudflaps or not, but I did see a Nurburgring sticker on the back in my rear view mirror.

Spotted on Tuesday morning around 8am at Spaldwick just off the A14. Was too excited to wave or flash and my car share thought I was a bit mental. Will be doing that route myself daily when I get my Trophy. There are some cracking corners on the way down to Kimbolton and the B660 & B645.

At Wellingborough coming off the A45, near Tesco last Saturday 12th, probably between 3 & 4pm. Maybe on the way to Santa Pod? Was surprised as I rarely see Trophies about and I had just come back from viewing one.

Apparently there is a 133MB update already out to fix a few things and there will be updates thick and fast over the next few weeks and months

Just waiting for mine to arrive. Am too tight to pay Amazon to do next day delivery. Hopefully will get here by the weekend.

Cheers. Was all set to give you a call last night after my current car failed its MOT yesterday, but the wife reminded me that we need the money to do the house up before selling it. Gutted, especially as I am just around the corner from you in Rushden.
