...OK well not quite, but... I removed the rear seats, metal bar and boot mat and wow - what a difference it made! I can finally hear the car's exhaust system - it was almost like putting on an aftermarket unit - and it cost me nothing! I also weighed all the parts - a total of 13-14...

How many people pay for it? If not why not? Does your normal policy cover you? Are you so rich it doesn't matter? I'm interested because I would never consider going out on the track with cover, but some people seem to be very blase. From various people I've heard it suggested that all you...

Have you guys noticed this? Normally the rear windscreen is filthy which means that once you put the car into reverse gear, yes you guessed it, you get a completely obscured rear window!!! Arggg.... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :) O.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are there any trophys left - prereg or low mileage ones? (Have part exchange so private sale is probably out of the question)

The recent posts about the types of chips/ecu that you can get for the Trophy has got me very interested in the subject. Trying to work out what is the best of the options available. The chips/ecu's I know about so far are as follows: Replacement ECU with R'sport map - The type that Nik...

In preparation for trackday season, I took my Trophy to get the tracking done today, which is all good, but their 4 wheel laser alignment system showed that I have -1.01 degrees of camber on the left front, and -0.24 on the right :? I was told that this was not a great amount to be out, but...

Nik, do you have the Group'N' ecu fitted to your Trophy yet? What's the verdict? Which one did you go for – STD or for use with CAI? 7MAT

Hey guys! I'm still reasonable new here so i dunno who is the beez knees with paint work yet! Moving on, and refraining from swearing! Some Ass H*ole took something to the paint work on my drivers side door, not deep, doest go through to the primary layer, but never the less it wasnt what...

A few problems with my Trophy, picked up from the dealer last Saturday: 1. Alarm is oversensitive and almost always goes off 30 seconds or so after setting with one press of the key. In the manual I've discovered that if you turn on the ignition and turn it off again immediately, this...

I have been looking around the 'net for a few hours trying to get a feel for the best types of oil to put in my Trophy when it arrives. Here are a few of the best links I found that discuss the subject...
