This is a fantastic write-up Ash, but maybe it should have started when you bought the car! Great mods & good plans, a cracking Trophy!

Vodafone FTW ;)

Not for me - don't see the point unless it's on site at Combe, especially given I can be home in under an hour... How many of you are camping Meganza?

Drop me a PM with some details Kelv...

Then at Chieveley?

Thanks all for your comments. The Red Lion also got recommended elsewhere too Oli, so it sounds promising, and yes, it's for a 'faggy' Trophy meet, although I'm not convinced all 500 will be able to make it ;)

Can anyone suggest a good pub for a meet in the Gaydon / Leamington / Stratford-upon-Avon area? The Heritage Motor Centre at Gaydon is an option but they might not be able to cater for us if everyone won't commit to paying the £12 museum entrance fee. The pub needs to have a decent sized car...

Such a thread of need... My need for your cars!! Lovely Vee, Colin.

Small world Jules! Dan, whereabouts are you based?

You're statistically more likely to crash a 1*2 and if you do your premium next year will be massive. I vote for another year's driving experience and spend the money elsewhere or save it...

Standard - throttle body iirc

Excellent write-up lads, and some great memories of a superb weekend. Roll on CS@LM14!

Arranging somewhere for ~100 cars to meet and convoy in together will be a logistical nightmare so as Bobby said, just tag onto one of the regional convoys - there must be a few coming from Wales you can hook up with.

I've just had to have another look at the erection thread - epic! Especially Tim's contribution ;)

Have you tried searching Andy? This topic has been covered, a lot, recently too. Seek and thee shall find.

Don't tell them Gorms sent you, they'll hang up on you after all the grief he's given RUK ;)

Spotted today (Monday 15 July) at around 2pm. You were heading towards the M4 Hungerford junction having come from the Newbury/Great Shefford direction. The sun was shining and your car looked stunning. LY has always been a bit marmite for me but it looked sublime.

Were white wheels ever a consideration for the RB, or is that not a path you want to follow?

A couple of small upgrades to #455 were added this weekend, courtesy of Budgie/Failsport. First up, a pair of Xenon headlights, something I've wanted for some time now but I've only just got round to sourcing some. I don't anticipate needing to use them for a while yet but I'm pleased they're...

Upgrade to 6.5in - it'll be worth it. It's been covered a lot, check it in the search functionality

Plus if you take it to Mike @ S&MWM you can have it on Surrey Rolling Road's dyno. It's independent and Charlie is well respected! Kyle - you know it makes sense, especially given some of the potentially worrying mapping issues seen on cars similar to yours, if you know what I mean. Checking...

OP - is this a hypothetical question, or do you have £6k to burn on a RenaultSport Clio you already own?

If you're looking for alternative styles doesn't the Lotus Exige also have a roof scoop?

Early. Time will be agreed a few days before the event most probably.

Nope - it's out on loan at the mo but with only 1 set out of 8 done so far, and an aching hand/wrist (more so than usual) I'll definitely be trying that method on the remaining 7 prints. Cheers fella

Today's update - it's not a sticker at all, as Meek quite rightly stated, it's just printed on top of the lacquer. As a result I've shifted it using SRP and a lot of elbow grease!

What speeds do you reckon you were getting up to before you had to brake? Personally I reckon you should have smoked him. Ever thought of some driver training, I'm sure there are some schools out there that specialise in urban driving skills - standing starts being their USP.

A little update - I've tried using clay for a minute or two on a small section of the logo and the clay instantly turned blue, which suggests to me that there is no lacquer covering the printed-on graphic. When I've got some more time I'll carry on with the clay but are there any other products...

I'd try MotorsportWorld for a competitive price too.

That standard exhaust looks comically small & pea-shooter-like. Otherwise, great colour, great plans, great price... result!
