That's never going to happen! That's never going to happen! ;)

Totally with you - I've got Dunlop Winter Sport 4Ds on the 3 series, but that's driven differently to the Clio. Do you think winters would offer more grip than something like a P Zero Nero, or Asymetric2, on average, over the next 4/5 months?

I've currently got Turinis with Hankook Ventus V12 Evos in 205/45/16 but having recently switched from 2118s and Yokohama AD08Rs (195/50/15) I'm finding the Hankooks a little lacking. I want to swap to something that will tide me over until things warm up next year when the Yokos will go back...

Quality! Is it on ITBs?

Cheers Rob, I'm now on the lookout for some anthracite 2118s - I want to try something different (for me)... I picked up my mats from Renault Wolverhampton - the trader on here. They were much needed at the time!!!

Cheers George! Signed back up with Greenlight over the weekend - such a competitive price, excellent levels of service, and really friendly, knowledgeable staff too. Makes me wonder why I left them in the first place.

Time for me to eat my words. I've just taken a call from Dick Lovett BMW, Hungerford, who have booked the 3er in to have both front wings replaced in early December, courtesy of BMW UK's 12 year corrosion warranty. Gobsmacked!

Srs?

Welcome aboard! There's a meet at Nando's on Wednesday night if you want to come down? You'll find more info in the Local a Meetings section.

I think a 3/4 plate is pretty cost effective. For £15 it transforms the front end.

Strong levels of trust between the drivers to drive that fast and that close to each other. Kudos. Thought he'd binned it when he left the track but he seemed to stay very calm & composed. Good vid

In something like Jewish Racing Gold it could be a proper sleeper!

Spec list is pretty big, I'm just not convinced about the colour - it looks like it used to be yellow but has faded plenty.

I've also got some footage of your Mum screaming ;)

Gutted for you, life can be so unfair at times. Can you appeal the decision? I'm not sure how, but is it even possible? Take the chap to court and get him to admit 100% liability? Sadly it'd turn into your word against his :(

Are these @Cub.'s old cams? How are they working out with the RS2? I know plenty of people have tried the RS2 with 197 cams, but not many with 438s, from what I can see. Do you have any results, either RR graphs or subjective views on how it drives compared to before? I'd be interested to...

Is that to any detriment of torque losses lower down the rev range though? Or is there no downside to 197 cams with an RS2?

You're going to have so much fun driving back from Leeds!!!

Price depends on so many factors - your post code, how many miles you do, your profession, where you keep your car overnight, your driving experience & access to other cars, convictions, no claims bonus, level of cover, extras etc, it's so difficult to compare one price to another. Sure...

@Bladex

I'll be there

Good work Rob, looking forward to catching up with you & Mike at a meet, plus any other Trophys that are in the area! See you soon chap

Stunning!

Back in the world of a proper web experince I can now see the details, and I like the venue, a lot! For some reason I assumed it was going to be an evening meet so I'm now a no because I'll still be abroad at lunchtime :( Disappointed to be missing the inaugural JP83 meet, however, I'll be...

I'll check out more details later (you can't see anything on Tapatalk), however, I'm flying in from a stag do in Portugal that afternoon so I'll either have to get a lift with someone more sober than me, or I'll be asleep (/dead).

Can we have a seaside meet please?

Cheers Jamie. It's great to hear positive comments about the drive, thanks guys, definitely money well spent! And yep, 44 cars is about right, although next job is to remove the hardstanding in the back garden and extend the lawn so the little lady can have even more space to run around...

Congrats John! I'm not a true Oxon member, but I'm only down the road in Newbury so I'll more than likely pop up for a meet now & then. Be good to put a few more faces to usernames.

30th October 2014 - 55,100 miles I've been off work this week so between spending some quality time with my gorgeous 2 year old daughter I took the opportunity to give the Trophy a little clean. First up yesterday were the white 2118s, which were in a poor state - I was worried they'd stay...
