    Car acting very strange of late

    Left work at usual time yesterday and the Trophy just did not seem 'right' to drive. Have checked dampers and all seem ok - rear replaced within the last 3 months. MOT also passed early part of July with no advisories so imagine they would have spotted any major 'wear'. Car seems very light...

    Trophy Broken into.

    I went for a 360 Health Test today at Nuffield in Manchester. When I left I walked up to my car and saw this ..... As you can see they went for the glove box. I'm sure they were looking for my Sat-Nav, there was nothing of any value in my glovebox and nothing was taken from the car...

    Engine Code on the 182

    Does anyone know the Engine Code for the 182? Apparently the wheel alignment place need that to match up the Trophy against the models listed on their machine, and the car is in another garage at the moment.

    Good Wheel Alignment place near Sheffield

    I'm looking for a good wheel alignment place near Sheffield, I wouldn't mind driving as far as Leeds / Nottingham and anywhere in between. I need them to fit the camber bolts as well since the last place I went to didn't have a clue. Hunter equipment would be best so I'm told. Many thanks Rick
