I’ve not seen rear badges this cheap before - looks like a next Group Buy Alert 🚨 £56.25 plus postage for all 3 Bargain - Kam Racing have them for sale at £184 with the same part numbers

Written off in July 2020 - probably why it looks in such bad shape.
It’s only had 3 owners though which is very low for a Trophy.
Former registration number RN05EAN
Andy yours looks fantastic with the original look - I went with the same look in my front wheel arches as underneath - however I left the rear original as it’s blown in black from the factory - just de-tarred them.
Lacquered over the Gravitex however I’m not sure what product it was - then...
My bodyshop man uses Gravitex for jobs like that - he gave me some to use no No63 when we recommissioned the underbody.

Welcome to the club Ed - I’ll look forward to seeing it attached to your T in your next 407 write up along with your other mysterious goodies - is there anything I need to order to bring mine on too 👍🏻
Or in person soon now the weather is changing 🚗🚗
I’ve just had a count up - even taking into account the rest of the World it’s only around 20 vehicles - some days early 20s however that’s for only 6 days.
Motorway online trade platform has a daily auction - weekends are usually a little lower with entrances however there are 800 cars today -...
Just watched them run this to £34000 (£39100 including fees) with no sale - that’s quite a big loss if you had to jump and sell
You would even have the sellers fees to come off -
I really do think Classic Car Auctions at this level have run there cause when you take into account the Auction...
This sold at Manheim Leeds this week - one of Available Car's part-exchanges, shows where the Market is at the moment to take that in swap - made £23200.
3000 miles - 3.5 version
Not sure if Mrs Reilly would have been happy with me taking that one home -
I know this is an old tyre and probably no use for the road, however has it got some use on a genuine Turini just to throw in the boot
Would be a great talking point in my view...
You’re right there Andy - definitely not a great time to sell when it’s P……..g it down outside.
Last one like this was the Chap who paid over 90k for the Acid Yellow V6 and then sold for a 20k loss.
Weird in my view and especially when everything is documented on the World Wide Web.
I'm not sure these will Flip for Profit given the Commission Classic Car Auction House's charge - plus 15% Buyers Fee including Vat - then there's the Sellers Fees too -

Thanks Ed - great to see you too today Sir, when it’s finished I’m hoping to get a invite to one of your events even though it’s not a little Red classic 🚗 -
However I was thinking about putting a tow bar on the wife’s new car HaHa - so I can then bring the T along 🚗
Another unique example coming soon to CC’s - I do really have a soft spot for these ❤️
Big money now -

Maybe everyone was right about the Christmas Cheer helping it to the 20k last time - there is a phrase in the trade - “your first bid is usually your best bid” - definitely applies to this sale - I’d now park it up till after Easter when people are getting itchy feet for something for the...
What a great article Ed - I Love that Craig is being so honest and I’m sure most people who drive these as a daily driver can relate too - my question is - should they be used all year round now that they are an 19yr classic - parts are expensive and hard to find - values are rising and with...
