Well it used to be difficult to refute that they were “just Eibach“ and nothing special, going to be impossible now.

How will they differ to the OE? The Ktec carbon fibre matt version is actually fairly similar in looks to the original and is a better “Oe” option than the Skoda thing.

Re-valved dampers - Bugger Springs - slightly stiffer than what? Are they now the same as any of Eibachs other springs?

That’s fair enough, in that case speak to James-Gonein60seconds above. I’m sure you can sort something between you.

I’m really going to have to disagree with you there Cue, the numbers just don’t back that up. Apart from the odd one or two I’d say that prices are pretty static and don’t seem to have moved much for almost two years.

Whatever you do you will be needing to spend. Full major service is due on these and those Sachs are going to need doing if you are going to have a car to enjoy or face a lowball offer if you are to sell as is. So £600-700 for the Sachs and about the same(?) for a full service with genuine...

It‘s always difficult to get a return on money spent on a car, let alone a Renault shopping trolley. But with only 19 now on the road in the UK (apparently) I suspect nice ones will go for decent money.

I don’t know and hadn’t thought about that but as a specified option it makes sense.

The Petrol Blue was such a marmite colour, which is why there were so few spec‘ed in this colour I suppose. I always liked it and with under 30 brought into the country, now rare and expensive.

As above really, but if you’ve been dealing with modern classics for so long surely you should have an idea on all this?

An Exige is in my “garage” of cars I’d really like to have and a while back was looking at a powder blue S Sport. It would of meant selling the T which was a tough choice, I bought the 5GTT in the end and still have both.

Well it goes without saying that a one or two owner car is pretty low. I guess the idea is that low owner numbers mean that those owners have kept them for longer and are more invested in keeping them in good condition, doesn’t always follow of course.

Sub 60k? Low owner numbers with good service history, all the “Trophy” parts in place that “looks“ well cared for. Lots of caveats to that and most is flexible and dependant on what the buyer considers worth it. Recent example of that was the £12k CC car which had a “few” issues.

I have to admit to giving it more than a second thought, such a beautiful watch but not quite tempting enough. :)

Mmmm, yes but good ones have been at that price for a while now. It seems pretty static to me, apart from the fight over the one on CC that is And without Forbes that would have stalled much earlier. There doesn’t seem to have been a rush to sell after that, the two on eBay have not moved for...

All the best threads take an interesting turn. :)

Like I said, they really are very nice and I have to admit this thread has me checking Watchfinders again.

So we are coming up on the “selling season” Where do you all think we are regarding prices?

Judging by the (advertised) sales just recently I suspect the watch will be the better investment, if not as much fun.

I think, think it’s 128 #Big Dave

Of course they are going to see the worst of the road but I thought I saw someone suggest a bike treatment, muck off or something like that?

That’s correct Marc. Does anyone have any advice on the best if any treatment to apply to these as some kind of protection before the new are fitted and the old are refitted?

Here you go Kelvin 60 00 073 749 60 00 073 750 These are the numbers for the two large front liners that sit in the top of the arches. You also have the two that sit behind the front bumper of which one is not available, see highlighted thread.

The irony there is that if you don’t touch them they will be fine(ish). They’ve also got daft expensive.

Wheel arch liners. I had some on back order and received the in stock notification about the same time as MarcB posted that one of the front four are no longer available. https://cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/clio-trophy-part-numbers.53897/page-4#post-418795 Whilst I have no idea how long the others...

Interesting idea, beautiful timepiece, watching.

It looks as though the seller pays for the photographer but they say they have turned over £78million, 5% of that is no small sum.

It’s a no brainer really but as per my earlier comment the price was driven by just two committed buyers this time. The next one or two will be interesting.

Good point, I guess for someone just coming into Trophy ownership the small ruckus this has caused might be hard to understand, we have all been looking through the window of anything over £10k having to have that bit extra and this one has not got a lot of that. My view on this one is known but...
