    Creaking suspension noise from drivers side sachs damper

    My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...

    Trophy shines again at the 'ring

    Having just returned from the 'ring with another faultless performance from the Trophy I'm still convinced this is the best all-round car I've owned. The 2 degrees negative camber I had on the last geo-setup worked well but was less noticeable than I was expecting. It did seem to have better...
