Was cycling through shelford after work and spotted a T with personal plate RIB ** parked near the pub, and take away van.
Crazy how many there are around here now
dont take this the wrong way but I think most people opinions of personal plates. They first think cool plate or what the hell is that suposed to say then the second thought is. Wow that guy must be a tosser.
Basically all the good ones cost loads of money...
I would spend the money on doing...
Ive just got mine back on after a refurb and have to say the car feels amazing. Falling in love with the car all over again.
Keith when I called up it was about a 4 week wait.
Well, I just had my dampers refurbed by BG which was cheaper than some people have paid. He said the main reason was that I hadnt messed up while unpinning them. Which in his opinion is very easy to do and most people wont notice they have done it wrong. To the extent that he replaces the...
Hi does anyone know the part number for the standard top mounts? Think I will replace them when I put my refurbed dampers back. And are these the same as on all other models, eg 182.
Was thinking of replacing the upper and lower rubbers and the bearing in between. As one of the lower ones has...
Yeah its all jacked up on both sides, so im not sure if they are the right ones, or maybe the springs are wrong. Well somethings not right. Would be cool if you could check the part numbers though
Hi everyone,
Need some help with trying to tell if a pair of dampers I have got are correct. I got them off a guy from cliosport, who said they were 182 cup dampers. They have the correct 60mm spacing but when I try and fit them on my Trophy (while I get my sachs refurbed) they are really long...
Thanks for the reply. Nice to know its a common problem. I know a couple of people with workshops so I may be in luck if someone will let me borrow one tomorrow.
its amazing how far you can bend an allen key :shock:
Hi guys,
Am in the process of removing my dampers and I cant get the top nut to budge at all. Sprayed it with WD40 but still no luck. If I was to put the jack under the disc with the car on axle stands would this take some of the pressure off the nut making it easier to undo? Or should I...
I got a set £10 off cliosport just put an add up in the wanted section. With springs, will be fitting them over the weekend. Anyone know the torque settings for the nuts? And there's a guide on cliosport which mentions replacing nuts, is this necessary...
Three trophies one rounder bout and no-one else spotted each other....
Well this was crazy I was at the sainsburys rounder bout at the end of Coleridge road coming from mill road and I see a Trophy going the way I came from off the rounder bout. Then I turn off the rounder bout and theres...
wow, this is the first engine bay cover I have seen that actually looks any good! Most of the time they just look like a piece of plastic put on top. Nice work
Mat black trophy would be pretty cool but I couldn't bring myself to do it....
SO this is basically like heat shrinking your car? Are there any limitations on how long to have it on for?
How much would a Trophy bonnet cost for example?
How well does it combat stone chips etc?
I have this with mine, its just the cables under your passenger seat. I had a screen de-icer knocking them causing my lights to come on, moved it and problem gone.
When I bought my Trophy it was unstable under braking and it turned out one of the rear pads wasn't fitted properly with the locating lug. This meant one pad was attacking the disc at an angle and making the braking balance of the car un-even side to side. Was pretty lively at times. New...
good idea, not sure how comparable db readings will be though. I assume I will need to replace mine at some point and want the quietest possible really.
thanks guys, well Im not going to get all crazy and spend hours every weekend but want to get a good finish then just maintain it.
I was thinking of getting the following products, so far...
Chemical Guys - Maxi Suds II
Sonus SFX Ultra Fine Detailing Clay
after the claying should I polish...
Hi guys,
Just wanted to get an idea of which would be best for the T. Have had a good look on detailing world but would appreciate some of your advice. Dont want to spend a fortune on wax or sealant and a clay bar but would be interested to see what products people are using and what they...
Just looked at aviva online on the back of this post as Im due on the 20th. They wanted £651 and im 29 with 11 years no claims (i know you cant use that many). Car is parked on street though. Guess it comes down to where you live in this case, being parked in the centre of Cambridge. so my...
Hi guys
Wondered if anyone is using the Brodit in car mounting kit as seen in the link;

Want a mount for my HD2 but not sure if this is any good?
cheers
