    4K TV's

    What’s the most reliable way to connect to a router when it’s some distance away from the TV and not convenient to cable directly?

    The new TV thread

    My folks are in their 70s and want a replacement TV. Given the state of their hearing most of the budget will be going on a soundbar, with whatever's left on the set itself. Tech like 4K will be wasted when all they really want is something they can pause then resume without going down the...

    Team Dynamics spigot rings

    Some will be correct. Some will be larger - many folk use spigot rings with no issues. Anything is possible with a smaller centre bore but it would be more hassle than it’s worth.

    Trophy Track Rat Beginneth

    If you haven’t yet sorted replacement boot struts then check out the cliotrophy forum as there’s a thread devoted to the subject, including links to various items including Bilstein, Magnetti Marelli, SGS, all of which do the proper job - of holding the boot lid in a position where you’re almost...

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    April 2018 - 66,000 miles This month has seen a few outgoings on both cars - the Trophy had a service, MOT and 12 months tax was due, and the Mazda also needed an MOT, 12 months tax (although I'll probably SORN it again over winter) and it needed insuring. Now we're in April and we've hopefully...

    It’s belt change time

    I use ARM Ltd in Newbury, although I'm not sure which end of Berkshire you're from. Andy is a Renault specialist who looks after a variety of 1*2s including a handful of Trophys. Top man, top work, good prices, but most of all he's got expert knowledge.

    Rob's 220 Trophy

    Indeed. Do you know him or buy/sell one of his cars? Was it the RB182 from a couple of years ago?

    Rob's 220 Trophy

    Nicely done Rob, I look forward to seeing it up close at a meet sometime. If you're after any recommendations I'd suggest getting in touch with Detail My Car for a quote. They're based at New Greenham Park on the Basingstoke side of Newbury, and the quality of work they deliver is really...

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    Cheers Scott. I took them to City Powder Coaters in Birmingham. It's not close but for £20 per wheel it's ridiculously good value and worth the drive. At that price I could change colour every year. They have 3 anthracite options, all displayed on the wall in reception, I just went for the...

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    I've just picked up the Ultras, which I'll get wrapped in the Yoko rubber in the coming weeks, then they can go on the car. I'm really happy with the colour, which isn't too far from the standard wheels.

    What would you rather have?

    Mine's also on 66k, but I'm genuinely not sure I'd sell it, unless it was for £25k+ lol
  16. Tim.

    What would you rather have?

    I'd have the R26 - surely it's the better all-rounder? I guess it depends what your motivations are for wanting/buying.

    Megane R26/Trophy status?

    Is your mileage, owners and spec comparable?

    Megane R26/Trophy status?

    And you won't give two hoots if it actually sells!

    Megane R26/Trophy status?

    But the point is, how many other mint, completely standard, 1/2 owner LYs are out there with only 30k miles on? If you've got something unique you can price it however you like, but whether the demand exists is a different matter altogether.

    Chris' Petrol Blue Project

    The RS2 is a tried-and-tested product that not only offers performance gains of more than 2bhp but tends to hold good value on the used market, is a quality-looking product, doesn't affect reliability, allows you to retain features like cruise control, but also signifanctly enhances driveability...

    Rally Sweden 2018

    It's like it was meant to be - McDriftin' goes to a rally on the white stuff, in the Volvo motherland. Good write-up and great pics of what looks like a superb trip.

    Clio 172/182 - Which one to buy? Which model will be worth more in 10 years?

    With a budget of £3k I think all you can do is limit depreciation, you haven't got a hope of making money, unless you take a blinkered approach and ignore all costs incurred and stop calling it 'an investment'. At the end of the day all Renaultsport models are immense fun. Buy one and enjoy...

    Group N timing and SM inlet

    But with these inlets, especially the RS2, you can enjoy the benefits, potentially for years, then still sell it for a very healthy amount, and encounter almost no additional costs as a result. It would be interesting to run a cost comparison against both a turbo and ITBs over say a five year...

    Demon Tweeks Failed Customer Service

    I doubt anywhere they guarantee delivery and offer to cover your expenses if something fails to arrive in a timely manner. If you absolutely need something, you go and buy it in person. Buying anything from a distance always has an element of risk. I see your point about customer service but...

    Insurance cost!

    Insurance posts like this one should be deleted, they offer so little value to anyone. There should be a sticky explaining how insurance works, maybe a list of suggested companies (including comparison sites), and everything else should be binned. Merry Christmas
