    Saamm93 , Marcham?

    Heading out of Marcham towards the Frilford Shell garage at abput 17.00. My first spot of another Trophy on the road in eight years of ownership and damn they look good. Would have waved or flashed but was in a series 1 BMW luxo barge and guessed I would have looked like some kind of maniac.

    #62 damaged :(

    So came back form work only to find someone has hit the 'T' no note left or anything. To say I was upset was an understatement. Looks like it was side swiped probably who someone who couldnt drive. Damage caused was rear quarter panel rear bumper, front headlight wing and bumper.

    Had my new PureMotorsport exhaust fitted today!

    As title, Went down to see Nick at PureMotorsport today to have one of his nice new 182 manifold back systems fitted. I chose to decat instead of use his option of a race cat, purely to keep costs down. The system gave a proven 6.6 hp gain on the rolling road, back to back over stock on his...

    Protecting the Dampers

    Has anyone found a way of perhaps trying to prolong the life of the Sachs? We know that they can suffer with road salt/dirt so just wonder if anyone else has come up with a solution to protect them. I'm not sure where the failure occurs, whether it leaks at the top of the body of the main tube...

And the Civic with a late model...

    Missing Gatwick car parkers thread

    So why was this thread deleted? I'm guessing that his visits last night were to fire off some threatening PM's. Pretty lame that the forum folded so easily, disappointing.

    Cornering Force: overly firm?

    Hi I've just refitted my Sachs after CF serviced them and like at least one other person on here they seem incredibly firm. Now I've owned my T for about 5 years and I've driven lots of other Ts so I have a pretty good idea of what's normal, and quite frankly my Sachs dampers currently feel...

    Suspension Woes - Any help hugely appreciated!

    Put the Trophy in for its annual service/MOT and it turns out BOTH front springs are broken and a rear damper is leaking. Car had basically sat for 6 months straight beforehand so I am surprised. Front dampers are fine with no leaks (they were refurbed last August). My questions to you good...

    Clio Trophy #62 track wheels fitted

    Brought some Oz Racing F1's alloys for the Trophy to use as track wheels. They was in a right state so refurbed them myself and got a mate to paint them. The colour is darker than I anticpated but turned out not a bad match to Capscuim Red. So with Bedford track day coming up had some Yokohama...

    Best value no-compromise road tyres?

    Which tyres offer the best value & performance in 205/45/16? I only use the T for weekend fun so road noise & wet weather capabilities are of no concern, I just want great performance & value for money. Of course, they have to be road legal too! Suggestions & recommendations most appreciated.
