v6 and evo both excellent cars, whichever you choose you wont regret. Elise over vx though anyday, vx has understeer engineered into the chassis and it looks dated now. Ive always wanted a used ariel atom but where do you keep it if you dont have a garage. A bunch of blokes could just pick...

Keep the cup unless the vx is a weekend car.

Im not really bothered as Tesco rocket fuel is like the same price as bp normal unleaded where i live. Car is running rough on rocket fuel though hopefully its the hot temperatures. I thought they were oligopolies not monopolies - barometric price leadership or something an idea from another...

It is a bit shocking. My mates car had the temp sensor thing seen to twice and its still acting up.

I actually agree with toonboy to some extent. You have got to be stark raving mad to not buy a trophy when your in the market for a 182. The trophy was set up for english roads is this correct? Then why not buy it over a cup if its a better road car. If its not going to be used on track...

*Sorry the £ sign on my keyboard only works after several aggressive taps.

How did the trophy compare with your vxt kinnyboy? It would be interesting to hear from someone who has driven such a high standard car. The downside for all cars is the depreciation anyway, you offset it with the fun you get from the car. Id say buy the trophy its a bargain for 13000 and...

I dont know anything about cars except to some extent driving them but if you buy a normal cup and upgrade the suspension how do you know its going to be optimally set up. The trophy has been set up by experts. Additionally recaros are about £1000 and the sachs about £3000, if you get the...

Im getting the trophy for september. 1 of 500 cars finely fettled as it were by a legend, you cant go wrong.

Front wheel drive against trick 4 wheel drive. I bet even that 300bhp mini will struggle to keep up with the latest lancer evolution.

Problably not much in it. 210bhp but i think it weighs 100kg more. The works in this months issue of test drive looks like a beast of a car. Plus 8 years free servicing for a few hundred quid you cant go wrong.

Does it really turn with zero inertia like an lancer or exige?

What is a UCH? This maybe bollox no guarantee you will see a result but maybe write them a letter threatening legal action and see what happens. Something like, On (date) i purchased the vehicle (reg, make) and it developed the same fault over the course of 3 years (explain how the occurence...

My dad was ill and work is well meant that i didnt really have time to do anything. Now hes better (sought of) i can travel up north and get a car. Its just a case of first getting my deposit back from masters.

I think ive got 7 days to cancel and get my deposit back under Distance selling regulations/cooling off period. Whether the dealer knows this is another matter. Wow their not selling that fast if theres 200 left. I would have thought there would be only a few left.

Im unsure about it. It would be nice to complete the running in on a single day and take delivery of the car immediately as oppose to waiting for september delivery from masters.

A few probably. Starting to think i should travel up north, get one cheaper and run it in on the way back down. Problem is would masters give me my deposit back placed yesterday? [Edited by Richy123 on 05 August 2005 at 12:55am]

Well i thought i better put a deposit down at their asking price given all the press lately it seems they would have been all sold if i didnt act fast.

13294 at masters.

Arnold clark in scotland or something, no one down london will match it.

Got one from masters renault as advertised on autotrader. Only problem is have to wait for 1 September.

Same thing happened with my brothers 182. Whats going on with these temp sensors?

Zenith wont do it because the cars not on their database, this is what budget told me. The guy said give it a month and then call back but by then all the trophies will be sold.

Their no haggle price was a no haggled price so 15500. Cheers CLio007 for that information, probably going to save me quite a bit.(y)

I think thats a demo car on autotrader for 12595. If its new id have one right now at that price.

Yeah but im already with elephant for the first car, if i cancel that their give me a shafting no doubt on the refund. Ill give it a shot anyway.

I wish they would hurry up and sell them all so I can get some sleep at night. Or if they dont i wish my damn insurance company would allow me to insure two cars with my NCB.

What about the FQ400 or the FQD400, f**king quick depreciation 400. 48 grand or something new only a few months ago it seems, worth about 30 now.

Not sure cup tyres in the wet on the csl, 182 might have a chance. Plus csl handle sh*t out of the box, need to get kds done to michelins spec to eliminate some of that vagueness in the steering. Anyway who wants a car that eats £1200 of tyres every 4000 miles or single trackday.

I went to the newsagents and they havent got the latest evo. So whats the general opinion of evo on this car?
