If anyone is thinking about doing this and paying direct to Japan, the yen is at all time lows, so there has never been a better time all other things being equal. As far as we can tell the dollar will contniue to weaken medium-term, albeit with ups and downs on the way, which tends to drag the...

Norwich Union is offering PAYG insurance... i.e. pay per mile of driving, capped up to the limit of what your policy would normally cost on a normal plan.
It's great for younger drivers, and also good if you do minimal mileage a year.
Here is the link for more info...

I just spotted this on the Renaultsport forum "panel of experts" bit:
Eldorado asked: 182 service
Am I right in saying that my 182 clio needs servicing either every 12k miles or every 12 months? If so, why was this changed from every 24 months? Isn't a service every year a little excessive...

The sale of my Leon Cupra should be going through by next weekend and then I will be able to buy a Trophy anytime after that.
I will be willing to pay the right money for an excellent example but must have low-mileage, no chips, scratches, must be perfect. Since I cant really travel all over...
Hi,
Booking car in for service and enquired about prices if I provide my own oil. Woman tried telling me I need 5.5 litres of oil. I've done a search on past threads and I can't find any mention of needing more than 5 litres. The oil change guide in the forum suggests you only need 4.75...

You may have noticed the site dissapeared for a long period of time both yesterday and today. The hosting company blame it on one of their main fiber links being cut. They switched to a backup (which should have kicked in automatically and didn't) yesterday, and then this was cut today causing...
As I had today off work I decided to modify the air-intake system on my Trophy by removing the air-valve located near the horn to see what would happen as most after-market CAI on the market (ITG Maxogen & Viper etc) recommend removing the valve on installation.
To my surprise the cars feels...

I removed the rear seats, metal bar and boot mat and wow - what a difference it made!
I can finally hear the car's exhaust system - it was almost like putting on an aftermarket unit - and it cost me nothing!
I also weighed all the parts - a total of 13-14...

I just thought I'd tell people that I've sold my Trophy. :cry:
I've done 10,000 miles in 5 months, half a dozen trips to the Nurburgring in it, and a couple of Bedford trackdays. I've only ever driven it to, on or from a track, it seems !
It's been great fun.
But rwd, 360bhp, the howl of...
