Just buy another GP? You wont lose as much money in depreciation/steering racks/gearboxes as the 200.

He's already broken it as far as im aware. I considered buying it for the basic race series, but the regs werent drafted in time. Oh, & he wanted too much considering what i sold it to Nick for. Sachs dampers wouldnt be allowed as they are remote reservoir, although it would appear that JMS...

Its not 4WD though, its Haldex FWD, so the rears dont actually kick in until the fronts start to slip, so you will end up with understeer on the limit. Even with the Haldex controller set to Race on my Mk5 R32, it still understeered initially, as that is how the system works. As such, what you...

Was about to say i saw those pics on PH last month lol.

When you say much better handling, do you simply mean 'it has more grip'? Or is there more to your statement? Quite interested in why you think a FWD car with the engine way out in front of the front axle handles better than a RWD drive with the engine behind the front axle. They are lovely...

ECU Testing + labour to swop it over i assume? VW dealers are jokers tbh.

V's are all about residuals tbh. Ryan's is his house deposit lol. Touring is epic, if Mike doesnt have it i will. Also RWD is fine over winter, just turn off the traction control.

lol. Jokers. Although tbh, if you're looking at a C63, you'd best get used to such baller servicing costs ;)

Looked although in the B&W pic tbh, perhaps do the wheels black. Again, as above, lol at the self righteous comments from owners of a cheapo french hatchback.

Car looks lovely! Whats with the ropey looking old boat with the helicopter on the roof though lol?

Article on PH today: http://www.pistonheads.com/doc.asp?c=52&i=28514 For reference, Ford have sold more than 3000 Fiesta ST's in the same period. I lol'd.

Go to a big roundabout, TC/DSC off, 2nd gear, highish revs, when your going quick enough to understeer, lift off ...

I went for this 'setup' on the Trophy as its my preference: Excellent condition front dampers F*cked rear dampers Whiteline RARB on full hard V12's with lots of tread on the front V12's with less tread on the rear Removal of rear seats, isofix bar, etc. Aircon removal & lightweight pulleys...

Wheels look ok ;) Although im still not a fan of the Corsa B with Ripspeed alloys offset that everyone is going for. Looks a bit odd at the front imho.

You have 6 months: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/consumer-rights/

Can it be retro-fitted to the older ones? Half the reason i got rid of the last MCS was the lack of cruise lol, so pauper without it.

Sorry to hear about the DGS, 2 things though. 1. ECU-Testing will fix the mechatronic for £350: http://www.ecutesting.com/vw_and_audi_dsg_gearbox_ecu.html you just need to get your local specialist to pull it out/re-fit it for you. R32oc will suggest who to use no doubt. 2. You bought it from...

Seems my iphone4 is getting slower now, google maps kept freezing yesterday as well. Havent updated my ipad3 & very much preferring the looks/speed of the older ios.

Just out of interest, have you driven one? Lovely car though OP, looks to be in very good condition compared to some!!

They look far better on yours than they did on mine lol OP - dont worry about the hate, i cleaned my Trophy twice in 2 years, i got quite a bit of abuse for that over there tbh.

Ive just updated. Functionality seems better, but it looks like this:

Good nose picking in the last pic!

Mulsanne as in top right below? Thats even further away than Beausejour lol Noobs.

I'm pretty sure an e60 M5 would be approx. 1 billion times more expensive to run than a turbo'd clio, especially a sheddy £12k example.

See i thought they looked a bit like TSW Pace or Alessio Spiders, certainly not particularly OEM imho!! Standard's have 16 spokes, whereas they have 20 ...

Nope, we do get discount for going each year though :rasp: No ball games iirc.

Do you lot get a discount for leaving before the race finishes?

I really should have fitted them instead of leaving them in the shed for 3 months :dapprove:

EFA. Its Adrian's car, he's not just good at making "the finger's" car quick lol.

Well i never, they are ruddy similar!!! For me, it was always cost of tyres/driveability > looks
