I've bought about 150 cars in the last 12 months and 90% are more expensive than in 2007-2008. The poor supply and high demand for used cars has caused the hike. Many dealers who relied on small cars up to say £5000 are really struggling. Something like a Focus ST3 or ST500 is nearly £2000 more...
I saw a green 200 Cup with Black Speedlines a couple of months back. It was parked in a car park and looked the b******s. Out in the real world cars always look better, especially when in the presence of ordinary cars.
If some one has the misfortune to buy one in error - and let's face it people buy them because they are red sometimes! At least we will have a heads up maybe. I'm not for Nanny State either, but it's an expensive miss.
Agree a good percentage would check.
Nick: Wouldn't something that costs up...
Would it be an idea to flag up any Trophys spotted / for sale without Sachs Dampers? I've heard some cavalier views about the dampers and fitting coilovers instead. Maybe a register of Trophy horrors.
I thought it was a predicatbly emotional ending, given my mum used to have him on R2 about 1970! (we had a VHF / UHF television... )
Then he mentioned being back on the radio in February - and I wasn't quite as overwhelmed! Not quite The End as such.

I just had the std Halogens fitted back in #146. While at the garage I checked the VOSA MOT definitions (section 1.2 or something like that) for headlamps and MOT.
There is no reference to Xenons and no reference to headlamp wash or self levelling. The tester was adamant he would pass a Clio...
Always seems strange to buy a Trophy or even a Williams and then strip it out, when there are loads of 172 Cups to do that to for half the price. Each to their own. I suppose the spare parts value might bring them back to the base car price.
I have Trophy Number 162 advertised pretty much everywhere, so if anyone is looking for a very clean throughout Trophy, with up-specced 182 interior please give me a call. Former keeper and enthusiast Mike from here spent plenty on servicing, brakes and early cambelt. Plus new Speedlines and...
If from front strut tops may need the elongated strut top aperture mod. I drove one back from Birmingham once and thought the suspension was going to fall off it was so bad. There's probably a thread on this here, or even check the car # and may be mentioned.
