I’m pretty sure it’s on here somewhere but I’ve posted so much trash over the years I can’t find it! I took the picture with a phone that will no longer power up and saved (I think) on an old works computer. I’ll keep looking.

Not sure actually, suspect most were removed by dealers though.

No, pretty sure not. I don’t think they were ever a spare part being part of the “packing” for transport. I have a picture somewhere of a brand new Trophy with little square foam blocks stuck to various places on the bodywork. I still have one and a half of my under bonnet pads.

It does still have the little foam blocks inside the wing channel though.

Nice picture Ed, though the wide angle lens gives her a little bit of a long ass. ;)

Ay, but he (?) is already doing things a little bit differently to how I or many on here would be doing them.

Well my guess he is reading this thread and is probably not liking some of the unflattering opinions lol. Having said that, at nearly £15k why should he care?

Doh, I just realised that I have a carcoon that came with the 5GTT that I’ve never used, would have been fine for a Mini.

Well it’s not really a barn find is it. By its condition and parts collection someone put it away intending to get it back up to standard and has lost interest. With the mileage, parts and condition there is almost no point in presenting it refurbished. It’s going to go for good money.

Stefan?

You have to remember that back in 2012 they were worth peanuts and if it had a major issue then the owner might have cut his losses, who knows? Probably as rotten as a peach now, but an excellent parts bin.

I don’t think you should feel embarrassed about wanting to keep your cars stored properly. We have all seen a few cars that that have been stored and look like they have been pulled from a pond and I know that many garages are much damper than people realise with humidity easily into the 90’s...

How weird, I read it a little differently. Trophy goggles I guess.

By the way Ashtons, that picture of the rear tyre on a Trophy was a picture I took of my car at one of the Gaydon meets.

As I tried to explain, it’s a decal of some description not an imprint And definitely not paint.

Not sure what the confusion is regarding the decal on the wheel (or have I got it wrong) The picture I posted was of one of the new set I have to illustrate what they looked like new. You can just about see the decal on the set on my car although now very faint. These decals were on all Trophy’s...

A. Hold off selling till the spring. B. Sachs might last five minutes or another 35k C. Get the work done, who really wants to spend more time and money on a new purchase.

I kinda thought it might go for a little more to be honest. I guess and it seems that the time of year does have some bearing on the price.

I really do not want to put anyone’s car down or get into any beef but “dry storage” counts for nought if the humidity is not controlled.

So which lead is that exactly please?

May I have second dibs on the Drive Shafts please.

Erm, what, you mean the electronics?

Also no front splitter and just the normal rear spoiler, not the V6 version the Brits got. Edit. Actually the front splitter thing maybe bogus, pictures show some with and some without!

This was discussed loads in the early days and was always interesting so if you have a quiet Sunday….. I think the general consensus back then was that the T was pretty difficult to improve upon. Improved braking was one, wheel geometry makes a difference, making sure all the suspension and...

After 16 years there will not be too many with a lower mileage than 50k. They are an in demand car so you would be looking at anything above £12k, dependant on condition and servicing it could get to £15k.

Well done, I guessed with a bit of prodding you might find the supplier, not like you magic’d six pairs out of thin air.

There was something on the RS components site that was similar to those, wonder if I can find them again.

So what is on the label, where did you get them from? It’s fine showing pictures but unless you share it’s just parts porn.
