It's true. Currently trying to find out the number...

Snap! Great minds and all that! :)

Lose the stickers... :P

I didn't think you'd struggle to sell it at that price. Even with having to drop a new engine in it's coming in less than current market value.

Nice one mate, straight back into the saddle :) Please be careful!

Same here. Red Mark Fish springs.

No idea when it comes to standard engines, Dave... :P ;) Realistically I reckon you could get an engine for 3-400 quid (using the ancillaries, etc. you already have) and then factor in 5-600 for cambelt, couple hundred extra for fluids and other miscellaneous / unexpected items. If you can fit...

That's a shame mate. Someone just needs to drop a second hand engine in there and they've got a nice Trophy to enjoy for decent money. Especially if they can do the work themselves. Mansfield, eh? My hometown. I'll be up at the weekend visiting my folks and sister.

Order placed :) Thanks for organising this.

Sorry to hear that mate, that's really bad luck :( Same engine in all 182's mate. You can even drop a 172 lump in as they are 99.9% the same and will offer the same power output.

Modern Classics were asking back in August, but no idea what happened.

There is always a bit of a risk but you can find engines with known history and get the belts and work sorted by the likes of Mick at Diamond Motors. It's not cheap but I think it's worthwhile on a Trophy that is in otherwise good condition. Fingers crossed - as Claude states, this is very much...

Sorry to hear that mate :( I hope it's not as bad as you think. If the cambelt has let go then it might be worth sourcing a second-hand engine and dropping that in?

Paul Temperton again stated that the Renault coil packs are no longer available, hence suggested the following (for people who may need to buy such an item). http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/ignition-coil/valeo-245079_g689_a021245079.html

Thanks for the update. :) I'm still in.

There was a guy on the Trophy facebook page who was seemingly interested in a binder. No idea if he's on this forum or not, though. Thanks for the quick delivery - pleasure doing business :)

Completed the set :)

Mine arrived this morning - thanks mate! Will leave feedback shortly! :)

No problem mate :)

@TonkaTruck I think I might treat myself to one of each colour (already have the red background). Would you prefer I bought via ebay or are you happy to do it via PM here? :smile:
