    MW05*** Odeon cinema Nuneaton - Fri 07/11 10.15pm

    Just came back to the car after watching the new bond film (slightly disappointed after all the hype and rave reviews) and behind me was a blue 172 (cup I think) with the Trophy 2 cars to the right. Must be local to go to that cinema ???.

    Evo Reviews of Trophy free to good home

    Hi all, I've been given copies of the two Evo magazines that review the Trophy. One copy of the 2005 Car of the Year and one of the shoot out with the BMW 6 Series. As I have copies already would anyone like them? They are the standard copies rather than the subscriber ones which usually have...

    Why did you buy your trophy?

    So many different reasons i'm guessing! I bought mine as a daily driver to replace a boring VAG TDi barge. I have always loved french hatches, the handling balance and the way they handle bumpy roads is unrivalled by jap crap and german barges. Trophy specific, i always have to have good...

    RS Owners Take The Biscuit

    I must be a masochist in advertising Wanted Ads for Focus RS. The owners are only after MENTAL money for them, and I'd say I was prepared to be as bullish as I am with CT. Just told by someone they will wait and readvertise in the Summer as cars fetch more then...??? Obviously forgotten that...

    Trophy Owner just hired Clio F1 R27 for 3 days

    Hello All, I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days. I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...

    JDM Civic Type R

    Has anyone else read about the JDM Civic Type R and getting a bit tempted? Autocar clocked it doing 0 - 100 in 15.98 secs while the Megane R26 clocked 16.66. Not much in it but interesting all the same. EVO gave it a good review too, hailing it as the best Honda on sale at the moment. I...

    Yes i know you're lurking on this site somewhere.... Just thought i'd say hope you enjoyed kicking my tyres, using my petrol to go on a test drive when you had no real intention of buying.... Word of advice, if you are going to make an offer on someone's car, you need to be able to find...

    Angelworks & Pagid

    My car is now back from Ben, who fitted cams, modifed inlet and a re-map. His only concern was that as the car has only done 4,000 miles, all on the ex-factory full synhthetic oil, that the rings may still not be fully bedded in - wants me to use ordinary mineral for a while - and so installed a...
