I think you're missing the point ;)

I think it looks better with the dents :o Nick. Your cars manned up, now you need to.

lol, some epic wheels choices in here so far !! Liking these though tbh: Although i am a little concerned with how good these look :o Was never a real fan of hockenheims tbh, i was more of a Evo R fan, flipping epic wheel/car combo!!

So they're not the same ones as Nicks then lol ...

I've bought some TSW Stealths, & im going to have them as my spare wheels for the Trophy. As such, & purely as the rest of the Trophy owners hate me for messing with such a rare beast of almost Ferrari F40 awesomeness, & never cleaning it, i would like to spray them pink 1st - or another...

lol ... i will shortly be winning the 'worse brightly coloured wheels on a clio ever' prize soon ... I have acquired some TSW Stealths, from 1994, which i will be spraying pink (with Halfords finest spray cans), & fitting to the Trophy over the next few weeks :dead:

Tee hee, Tom doesnt know it yet, but one of these is getting hidden on the underside of the JMS race car ;)

They are very, very rare!! According to Speedline they made a one-off batch of 24 wheels for a company called Frazer Nash Research in Surrey. The wheels are 6x15 Type 2118 with 4x100 pcd, ET30 offset and 70mm centre bore.

Best posting on www.cliotrophy.co.uk. What no. was it?

Why do you even bother posting on this forum? Your posts are unhelpful. Always. Vish - the price seems about right to me, & the ad is fine too.

I would imagine so. If it doesnt work, they'll be sold as coffee tables ...

Now that is awesome. Christ you must be bored at work lol ...

I have a mint 182 steering wheel if you want to stop offending your eyes anytime soon :)

Ah yes, i did wonder why it was different between my '52 plate coupe and my '53 saloon ...

Do want. As soon as i move closer to work, bye bye 320d & Trophy, hello M3.

He should stop farting about with the 200 & finish the sodding 106, again, imho. Sounds like an interesting project though, is the gearbox on the 200 different to the 197, which iirc is made of cheese.

Im a finance broker Tony, booked my ticket a long time ago lol ;)

Lol, u dont hang about !!! Look ace. Should have fitted them to the Trophy tbh ...

You. Are. Bonkers. Can i have the shell though? Could reshell the Trophy into it, just so that i could have ropey looking blue & pink clio, on TSW Stealths (which i have) complete with battle scars, for extra man points. www.cliotrophy.co.uk would love it. ROFL.

Buy a faster car.

Bright pink. Or standard.

I'm tempted to this tbh, all the other TD's this seem seem to be blooming expensive!!

Yeah, they did, in which case BMW fixed it FOC as far as im aware, its when the warranty ran out that the trouble started, bit like previously with the 'Nikasil issue' & Audi with the 2.0 Tdi engine failures, they had/have a habit of saying 'bugger off' - hence the introduction of the blanks to...

Having removed the swirl flaps, thought i'd do a quick write up, in laymans terms to explain what they do/how they fail, etc. The flaps are designed to create a 'swirl' or 'tumble of air' to aid better combustion under light load and subsequently help with driveability in low load conditions...

Hence why i kept the suspension, thats the good bit ;)

Not so sure tbh, you forget that the poncy wheels & seats in a Trophy sell for £1250 themselves .... leaving you a lot of money to buy normal wheels/Bimarcos if you're turning it into a track car anyway ... ;) Then if you dont like the Sachs, you can get rid of that for £500 as well ...

By oldskool i mean the way it drives/offers feedback to the driver, not that it unreliable lol ... I have a Trophy, purely because its flipping brilliant.

I prefer the 182, hence why i own one. If i prefered the 197, id own one of those instead. 182 = more fun/oldskool imho.
