    Wheel choices

    Right guys I'm considering swapping my wheels. My Trophy is a second car and if I'm honest it all ways will be. The plan is to downsize to 15"Alloys, I only ever use the car in the dry so figured I could get away with a set of road legal track tyres, which would also cover the handful of...

    Gold ZCW Alloys?

    Hi guys, I am looking for a set of 15" alloys to use purely on track days over the coming year. I have spent a bit of time on a number of other clio website including Clio16valver but to be honest there seems to be a huge number of really poor quality wheels on there. When you factor in the...

    new tyres

    I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing. Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread. Do you, A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres? Or B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear. ?

    Mud Flaps

    This may have been discussed in dribs and drabs before but I thought I would resurrect it. During the recent weather, I notice that the car seems caked in crap which I think is partly down to dirt/salt being kicked up by the tyres. Curiously, the rear hatch seems to always be the worst affected...

    Small updates to 243

I complemented this with a polished strut brace that really doesn't offer much in way of performance increase but unlike the way it looks. Also did my own tacho change by buying...

    Storing my Trophy

    Due to a change in financial circumstances :( I'm taking the rather hard decision to suspend my insurance policy (a huge cost for me being 20) and lay #110 up until maybe spring or early summer next year. That way I'll be saved from renewing my insurance again in June as I can potentially...

    Winter Tyres

    Has anyone contemplated using them? If so, what brand and size? Also would they actually provide better grip than the PE2's in winter? I was looking at UK mean maximum temperatures from October to April, and between at least November to March temperatures should be highly suitable for winter...

    Michelin PS3 Pioneers

    Those with PS3s fitted - what tyre pressures are you using? I normally run 32 front but they seem a bit squidgy if you chuck the front around. I'm guessing a softer sidewall causes this? Gonna try 35 front later and have a tinker.
