Mine - Rob Huffs trophy from Thruxton when he was racing the cupra.
I'll never give that up nor forget him giving it to me (my friends reckon that was the only time I have ever been speechless).
Mind you I also have a varied collection of podium hats, bottles of champers, a bumper, gloves, and Nigel Mansels autograph.

Mine's Fiona's autograph too, even though I actually managed to fail to meet her at all last year! It was given to me as a birthday present instead by someone who knew I was a fan, I believe it was bought from Ebay! Hopefully I will finally get to meet her sometime in 2006.

I've got a lot of BTCC merchandise from clothing to model cars to posters and pictures. But I'd have to say my two most treasured possessions are
- my signed framed print of Colin Turkington leaping over the Knockhill chicane last year (http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2849/dsc000339xh.jpg) which was given to me by Colin himself.
- And my signed poster of Will Hoy in the Arena Renault in 1999. (http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/5439/dsc000348vd.jpg)

My favourite ever thing is an Egg autograph card from the '02 season. Matt Neal and Paul O'Neill were winding each other up on their respective forums, and they signed the autograph card for me from Danger Scouse and Lengthy Boy! No one will ever prize that thing away from me!!!!!

Two top favs:
1. 2000 Honda Accord Poster signed by Thommo and Kristensen (I missed out on getting Tarquini's autograph)
2. My 2003 VXR Caricature (http://www.btccwatcher.co.uk/caricatures/images/vxracing/vx-caricature-lg.jpg) - I commissioned an artist to do this. Wasn't cheap, but worth it I think.

All the photo's I took and got the drivers to sign which includes every works and independant Mondeo driver. My Minichamps, Racing Replicas and Scalextric models of the cars (just bought a Tamiya R/C car off ebay too). T-shirts, Sweatshirts with Rouse's 93 Mondeo embroidered across the chest, Team Jackets from 93 and 99/2000, 99/2000 Team coat to supplement my own 99 Supporters coat. 99/2000 Crew shirt, Posters and stickers etc. collected at Pit walkabouts.

PS One Toca Touring cars so I can drive the Mondeo's, oh and can someone lend me £500 coz Mansell's 98 bodyshell is for sale on ebay

:) Not so much merchandie but my 13 year old son has a one off, half of a front wing from a formula renault, from the last round of 2004 at donnington, cannot remember the driver but he was from venezuela, poor guy, spun out and stalled, then while the pack raced on someone else spun into his car destroying it meanwhile the culprit carried on minus and end plate. It has the adjuster and everything that one half should, put a price on that, was going to get it autographed but the poor guy looked too upset. :cool: :cool: :(

I have a peice of Bumper bracket from Jo Winklehock's BMW from 95 I think. He'd gone off at Paddock Bend at Brands on a Friday testing with the car coming to rest on it's side against the crash barrier. The rear end of the car was stripped the damage in the paddock at the back of the pit garages and then wheeled into the garage to repair. The bumper bracket being left on the floor.
Jo put the car on Pole and won the race

Just bought myself 3 Tamiya Remote control Mondeos on ebay. Two ready to run and one to build. I hope to take some moulds off the bodyshell to try and make some models.
