Popped to see a mate today who works in a garage. While I was there I got talking to a customer who was waiting for his car to be MoT tested. He noticed my car and commented on the twin exhausts and said that he neighbour had a Clio with exhausts like that.. he said it had been standing in their garden for well over 12 months as something had gone wrong with the gearbox. I asked him what colour it was and he said the same as mine... I asked him what road he lived in and he told me.
One my way home I drove up and down the road, but at first I could not see any red cars but on closer look I spotted a car behind a tall hedge. I parked up and walked past the house, sure enough its a Trophy! I could only see the rear but it was pretty dirty and they rear tyre was almost flat and by the look it had not turned a wheel in a long time.
I am thinking about approaching the owner to see if he wants to sell, not sure whether to just knock on the door, post a note through with my telephone number, or send them a letter?
Might be a cheap car!
