    Ah ok this is the braided ceramic seal that goes at the rear of the subframe at start of the tunnel at the front rather than after O2 sensor, are they same fixings?

    Re: Original Trophy Tyres

    I know this may have been asked before, what tyres were on the Trophy as OE when new? The Toyo's on the front of mine are rather worn so will replace these soon, thinking of getting close to original tyres perhaps with slightly updated version/tread pattern.

    So what's wrong with this Trophy?

    Defo requires a message to the seller as to is there a service book, whats been done in the book, services/belts/sachs should be all upto date for that kind of money, looks fine in pictures.

    Re: Cheap Trophy for sale Cat C paint damage

    Does certainly look a poor old thing in the pictures, a good thorough clean would make a big difference then there's all the parts to be fixed/repaired,and required to get it MOT'D.
