    What Car - Civic Type R OR Astra VXR

    Hi, Ive posted this here as I know I will not be getting any biased comments. I am currently on the search of a new car and have narrowed it down to the Civic Type R or the Astra VXR. I like the styling on both, loving the performance figures on both, and when test driving I liked them very...

    Le 182 Bunker

    Known locally amongst trade friends as 'Le 182 Bunker', I now have a unit to store cars available, cleaned and ready to go. As you may be aware, I don't just sell Clio Trophies, but really enjoy driving Trophy and Cup models - hence the bias towards them. e.g "Don't buy a Cooper S Works until...

    Trophy for sale ? NO, this one's sold !

    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...

    What Renault could have done with the Trophy.

    I appreciate as much as anyone that the Trophy is a great hot hatch, but if anything, what would you liked to have seen the Trophy released with? For me it is more power! I was really hoping that Renault were going to release a Clio with the Meggy 225 engine in it, failing that I was hoping...

    Trophy review in Car magazine.

    Anyone know which issue it was in? Date and issue number would be greatly appreciated. Think it was the issue with the Astra VXR on the cover?
