    TROPHY INSURANCE - ANY RECOMMENDATIONS?

    Just wondered who could point me in the right direction for the best insurance deals on a Trophy at the moment. 35-year old, no track use, 12 years no claims so should get a half decent deal. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Specialist insurance brokers? :D

    I love my T!

    Are all Trophy owners as "sad" as me? I have had my T for nearly 5 months now and I smile as much now as i did the day I picked it up when I am in it. I just had to replace both rear wheel bearings (only 1 had gone but did both anyway) at a cost of 115 quid. Also having new front tyres on...

    Clio Trophy vs Civic Type R

    Hello everyone, Just wondering how the trophy compares to the civy type r ep3. Sat in a ep3 yesterday and I was really impressed. I went on fast laps to compare the two and the pre facelift ep3 was faster than a T round Rockingham by 0.4 seconds. But Iknow that fast laps...

    Renault Clio 182 or Seat Ibiza Cupra TDI?

    Which one would I be best off buying? I don't do many miles as I work away so I drive mainly at weekends. So it got me thinking a diesel might probably cost more than a petrol. But the diesel cupra has sooooo much torque! But I have heard they can torque steer out of corners! Which could be a...

    Had Them Rebuilt

    My Sachs have now been rebuilt at a cost of £583.20 (inc VAT) by BG Motorsport. A brilliant service, very quick turnaround and smiles all round. However, I am a little frustrated with Renault. Clearly, when deciding how to see off the 182 they saw 1000 or so Sachs suspension units and...

    DC5's

    Are they any good in the corners compared to the T? I was all over him just pootling really and he was having a hard time going straight (was damp/wet). So much so I thought I would leave him to it.
