Starting to think I've played a part in lowering the value of these fantastic car by asking too little for mine. Values will soon rebound when next spring comes around.

Sold! Thanks Sam

I suppose I always think traders are going to be more expensive than a private sale. I seem to remember there was a fantastic lowish owner/miles car on here that went for sub 7 and that really was a bargain. They do come up if you wait around, well hopefully. :)

Deposit taken. If the car doesn't sell I'll update the advert accordingly.

Sounds pricey I've just sold mine (well taken a deposit) with a few less miles and without many of that cars issues for less than 6.

6 previous owners, I knew I'd missed something out of the advert! The Yokos are extremely impressive in the dry, they don't seem to wear much (I am probably not trying hard enough) and I've been caught up in monsoon conditions with standing water and they even coped with that. Obviously they...

Glad you think it's well priced. I'd like a quick sale so have priced it accordingly. The car will be located in South Lakes/Lancaster in the NW of England depending on my agenda.

Thanks Phil, I don't think my fabrication skills would be upto much! I'll just leave the ktech induction kit fitted until I source the missing hose. I did a search for it but couldn't find a price, when you say 'overpriced' are we talking over 100 quid?

Well, went to fit it all and realised I'm missing hose number one! Does anybody know the part number? I presume it runs to the accoustic valve? If it does can I just blank it off somehow? I'm starting to get confused

Any info on how to swap just the cover and not the whole unit?

Hi Patrick, nice to hear of a Trophy on the mainland! I'm driving mine to Lech in September so if I see another I'll know who it is!

I don't see prices coming down at all, the car is reckoned to be one of the best hot hatches of all time. If that's true or not I wouldn't like to say but it's one of the best I've driven. Some folk will happily pay 10K for a family holiday so to shell out a lot less than that for a hot hatch...

Yes it's just sat on the battery tray with the hoses and that to hold it in position. Obviously that isn't good enough so I've reverted to the ktech intake which was installed by the previous owner. As soon as I get the brackets the original will go back in.
