I'm sorry but you've kinda just hit the nail on the head. Compared with an FRS the other 2 aren't special at all, no matter how limited the numbers.
Junping from a 172 to a Trophy hoping for the car to feel special, I doubt it, it's still 75% a 172. R27 if it's between the 2 and you don't...
I've got to say on cost, i'd maybe rather a Trophy over an R27, the 27 is the better all round car imo, buy on running costs, fuel etc it's very hard to justify, I was doing over 35mpg in town with my Trophy, the 197 would be doing 25 at most.
I would say the Trophy could have been so much...
I still cannot believe you sold that Fiesta. :(
Is it only me that recogises that HT53 plate? I know it would have been common but the cups weren't that common.
Horrendous, the ones we look after the owner loves, he resprays them time after time (ocd/too much money) one was missing a complete chassis leg and the only thing hloding the side panels on was sealer. Utterly insane, they weren't even 10 years old from memory!
Jesus facking Christ Dan. They don't leave the factory that clean!
How long did that take you?
Oh and I agree, even I wouldn't buy an older transit. Only the sprinters are worse for rust ime.
The Trophy is kinda the one you want, the R27 is a great grown up alternative. Sadly neither is really holding their money really. Imo the Trophy simply wasn't different enough to a 182.
Thanks for getting involved in this one guys and a massive thank you to Ant fro sorting everything out with Craig. Any problems don't hesitate to email Craig or PM me if need be i'll make sure he deals with it.. i'm good at pestering him.
Oh my, other levels of want, I do like the CLA at times, Red AMG model is superb looking but the S-Class looks great. Not cheap but what a great alternative to a boring Bmw equivalent. Story here...

Specced properly it's...
Re: My new car. TTQS
I always think the TTs need an exhaust especially the 1.8. It' a special car missing sound aural pleasure!
That aside, it looks the parts mate, properly jealous.
Of course. Thought the wording could be better considering Rob has just bought the car, I don't doubt there are things the camera never tells but it was made to sound like he's been sold a dog by Paul.
