Does the Trophy have uprated Sachs rear shocks on the back? if so they are clearly ideal for towing!

Ok then... you buy an LCD or plasma screen it has a sony or philips badge on yet the panel is made by NEC whats the difference, the quality is the same as it that of clio/ferrari dampers as they are made by the same company.

as regards to the badge lol.. Fiat own ferrari the worst cars ever made, the ferrari parts themselves will be more unreliable than any renault and cost thousands to replace only the "bespoke" parts i.e sach dampers, recaro seats, brembo brakes etc.. or whatever aftermarket company they choose will be solid and reliable you obviously havent read about supercar reliability.

finally if a ferrari was £13,000 everyone would own one, thousands, a trophy is 550`ish in ammount ever made it is therefore much rarer than almost any ferrari

your logic only comes from cost, the badge and image its a pointless argument especially on here.. a ferrari is for the eliteist driver who probably buys just for the badge and cant drive for toffee, the trophy was engineered for this country only (ok that and the other one) but we got nearly all of them they recognised our love of hatches and our love of the cliosport range.. have ferrari ever done that for us in old blighty ????? will they ever ?????

all your ideas of what a car is relates to money the trophy is more exclusive to the right people than a ferrari its a working class hero car imo

FFS meggerman its a clio!!! That was my point....

And from that your saying a clio is better than a ferrari??

Your talking as if the Trophy is one very rare priceless car!!! One of the best in the world! Cant be matched....

Erm, buy a 172 Cup, Add some Decent coilovers, its better!

At the end of the day the old man is towing a trailer with a clio..... Whats the problem, yes it may be illegal but this isnt about that! People are moaning because its a trophy!

Grow up folks its a cheap car!

And that was my orginal point....

Its not a 600k super car! Its 16k.....

lol someones feather are ruffled better get back to the hutch m8

like it or not £10 or £100,000 a trophy is 550 edition for ever the end that makes it very rare and unquie and Evo proved if driven on the edge it could hang with a M6 with 500bhp which is as fast as a ferrari and faster than a 360 modena of course it was all corners any more and obviously it would get blown away but the point is one mans fiesta is another mans ferrari, too many snobs around forget the price,bhp,badge its all about the handling.

In fact a cheapo £40,000 Mitsubishi Evo (compared with a £160,000) can beat a Murcielargo on track, factor in a slightly less able car i.e ferrari 360 and an Evo a new FQ360 at £27k can beat one of those more torque better handling and only 40hp shy.. a mitsubishi hasnt any eliteist badge it makes pickup trucks and superminis... in fact autocar rekon you would have to be a driving god to beat a decent topend scoob in a ferrari on uk roads.

i think you should pull your head from your arse

If a magazine said a fiesta handles as good as a F1 im sure u would belive it...... Make me laugh lol

My Cup on coilovers handled better than my mates trophy, does that mean im better than a Ferrari 360???

Here here!!!! well said meggerman!! My Trophy happens to be my pride and joy and i will be fooked if I will let snotty comments from someone make me think otherwise!! He has a clio himself for christ's sake!!! I know it's not a bloomin ferrari but its a lot of car for the money!!!

My nan said that little newms needs a slap round the face with a 2 week old rainbow trout!!! :rasp:
 
ITS A GIRLY CLIO. THATS THE END OF THE STORY GUYS.

CALM DOWN DEARS.

And in Newms defence, dont say his feathers are all ruffled, simply because all he's doing is replying to your ruffled response.

I would be more impressed with a 182 towing a Jet Ski worth 9k..... Would that still be a crime????

yes it would be illegal as it has a zero tow rating!!!
