Fair enough, hopefully someone will be along to definitively address the question.
Would you consider spacers or are you not prepared to make that compromise?
You've seen searched, right? I'm pretty sure this has been covered.
I run the same setup but with 2118s (ET43) and 20mm spacers and there is shed loads of room!
What's the offset on your F1s, and I assume you're milling 5mm off the mounting face of the callipers?

I've hardly done any mileage since March, partly because I've got the Eunos, and partly because I'm really enjoying spending time with my two kids - that, and my 1 year old wakes up plenty in the night so instead of an early morning blat I'm catching up on any sleep I can...
Sounds like a CS BBQ job to me, maybe at CSS.
Andy said reputable - well there are plenty of people on here with a reputation of one sort or another, and each has their own 'specialism' ;)
Let me know if you need any logistical support if and when the time comes, heard the weather in Greece...
If you want to release even more funds just pick up a ropey Fiesta/Focus for £750, insure it for £250, you've saved yourself a further £2.5k. Cashback!
Unlike houses sold prices for cars are not made available to the public as far as I'm aware, and whoever buys at the top of the market is hardly likely to start a new thread on CS saying s/he just paid what most people will consider over the odds for what many will view as a glorified 182 with...
No offence but I think you think like that because you're poor.
If money was no object and you had a 200 car garage with some cars worth £1m on their own, you'd have enough money to chase ownership of the worlds rarest models. You'd be a car enthusiast, but you'd enthusiastically collect them...
A lot of subjective opinions in here are fairly moot. Whether people think a Trophy is or isn't worth £20k is largely irrelevant. Objectively, if one person sells at that price and another buys then that car is worth that much to both of those people. You simply cannot argue against that.
#004 is Harry 'Evo' Metcalfe's.
Not sure the early ones will command a premium - the first 5/6/8 were press cars so will have seen their fair share of different drivers all doing 0-60mph tests and caning them pretty hard, but to be fair they love it so no big deal in the grand scheme of things...
The 'driver's car' bit is the caché - it's what makes the car desirable to potential buyers, and it's what will make it worth £x in future.
Harry Metcalfe has done a great job of marketing the Trophy especially with his video. He has a following and many of those people probably have more money...
And it only takes one other person on crack to complete the transaction.
I just don't understand these threads - it's worth what someone's prepared to pay for it. Supply and demand. I don't see many other 16k mile, one-owner Trophys for sale right now so if I'm in the market then how do I bargain?
There's another thread here, posted not long after yours Andy. Includes some good media links :)

New. BT fibre broadband & line '£17/mth'. Via this BT fibre link* anyone who doesn't currently have BT broadband can get up-to-52Mb fibre (3x standard speed) + line rent for a year, till Wed 19 April. It gives unlimited downloads and is available to 83% of the UK - you're told when applying if...
Don't all mobile and broadband providers have tools so you can check in advance?
As far as I'm aware no provider has 100% UK coverage, fixed or mobile. Nearly everyone has had bad experiences of being in the wrong place for the network they're on, that's just life.
Vodafone offer Fibre 38 with a £1 connection fee and from as little as £23 per month I believe, and no monthly line rental. At that price it's definitely worth considering.
