So maybe they're not very good??

Shut up.

What garage?

At the risk of repeating myself, £2500 will just about buy you a rusty/needs restoring Mk1 XR2. That same £2500 will buy you a VERY tidy 205 gti, R5, Williams etc. At best, Trophy's are likely to hold their value more than other 182's, but that won't be measurable for at least another 10...

They won't. French hatchbacks don't have enough of a following. Apart from some seats and some shocks, it's a worse spec than a normal 182!

Sit inside in the warm and wait for the AA.

A15X CG definitely. A15X C G is just asking for trouble.

I've had this plate on a £28k Audi, down to a £2000 Beetle. And just about everything in between and to date have never been pulled. (Touch wood!)

I get mine from here and they're great. They don't have that stupid little thing at the bottom like in the picture either. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pair-Standard-Number-Plates-100-MOT-Compliant-ROAD-LEGAL-/400565692066?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d439366a2

Just plain plates. No borders, no fancy plastic raised letters, no ''GTI'' on the bottom etc. Just plain plates. I'm assuming you'll be playing with the spacing on your new xmas present, so keep the plates plain and you're even less likely to get stopped IME.

No TFR is TFR. Tar and adhesive remover is called Tar and Adhesive remover.

It looks like he welded it using a wooden welder too.

"In terms of holding it's value, which would people recommend" That's what you said.

Please don't get a 235. They are as awkward to look at as a Merc CLA.

In hoping halfords do them because I want to get/fit some tomorrow.

Tell whoever broke it to fix it!

There's a V8 M3 up the road from me in Dakar yellow. Holy s**t that's a bright yellow! Almost fluorescent! Lol

Who's bitching?? I'm asking a genuine question, why do you think the trophy will be a classic? Calm yourself down. Yes it's a good hot hatch but that doesn't make it a future classic. Look at the RS Turbos! They handle dreadfully, they rust, they aren't fast... But they are cast iron classics...

Based on what?

Trophy's will always be worth more than other 182's but they won't be classics and they're certainly not investments!! V6 yes (but they will crash soon, guarantee!) but investing in any other Clio trying to get a return on your money is not going to work. Go and buy an RS Turbo, XR2...

Remember to have everything suspension related replaced in pairs!

Much difference at night mate?

I use Trafalgar tar and adhesive remover. It's just as good as tardis and about half the price. Get it on eBay.

As well as being jailed, they should be hot with the emergency services bill. Accidents are accidents I appreciate that, but when you're convicted of driving like a c**t, you should have to pay for the people that saved your life.

FLOL! CS never forgets.

That's what I don't want. It's a mammoth job on the passat as the undertray has to come off, front grill off, bumper off, all to get the headlights out. If an HID kit keeps packing up I don't want the grief. Looking like it might be the Osrams then.

I have projectors yes. What would you fit gerk??

As above. Driving home tonight reminded me how diabolical the headlights are on my passat. I need brighter and whiter lights as opposed to the dim yellowy rubbish it currently has. I don't want an HID kit because I don't trust the cheap ones and I don't want to pay £100's on a proper kit...

He's a detailer and he 'a been using NEAT Tfr??! Holy moly.

Your Xmas recaros are genius!
