Looking for a single turini, in excellent condition, let me know what you have. Thanks!

So true, external of the car is bad enough, hate to think what the mechancial side of the cars like!

I've had a look and I also know that some people offer to sell if the proce is right too.

As above please folks, have around 5K or so to buy a Trophy, looking for one that has had belts done as well as dpehaser where possible and dampners in good condition, if not refurbished yet. Ideally something 65K or less, I know this criteria is fairly specific but if you're thinking of...

Is this the one on eBay with DLR's?

From memory it's only 6 screws holding the spoiler to the bootlid, light is only held in with a couple of clips. Best to be done with two people though, one to hold the spoiler and one to close the boot.

Least you got that exhaust sorted!

If they were done at BG motorsport they did have a known issue of seals or something similar failing on them. You could ring them and ask where you stand, someone on here had theres redone after parts BG fitted had failed.

Has the cambelt an auxbelt been replaced? Hows the dampners?

Speak to Luke on CS he recently went through something like this so may be able to provide you with some additional help.

Lol they prey on those who are either desperate to sell or are too stupid to advertise on AT or PH.

Doubtful even the 197's are doing it.

Standard steering wheel?

Oh really?

Sprins are yellow on the front and black on the rear, or so I was told.

On the plus side, there's a lot less spam topics and messages since the upgrade, small mercies and all that.

Cheers guys, it's as I suspected then. Needs to pretty much be solid and no sloshing noises when given a shake.

I was under the impression that it was sold, didn't realise you still had it. How much are you looking for it now?

I shall have a look, guy took them off and replaced them with coilovers for ze lows apparently. Though obviously I'm keen to putthe sachs back on if they're in good order.

Is there anyway I can check the effectiveness of the dampners once they are off the car? Obviously I know to check for misting on the units, though should they be pretty solid if I try to move them by hand?

Won't be the first car to have it done to. Mate went an looked at a 182 that had more non-sport parts on it than sports parts. Alloys, seats, bumper, spoiler all replaced with non-sport equivalent.

I was under the impression that you could get them for a lot less than that, even from Renault.

Quite likely to be a pencil coil I'd imagine.

Can someone just confirm that the front springs on the Trophy are yellow whilst the rears are black with red and white spots. Thanks

Where about in Bucks are you located?

Can you tell me whether the dephaser was done at the same time as the belts? Do you have a ball park figure of what you would like to get for the car?

Thanks to Nik for sorting out my password reminder as well, despite my cryptic email to him!

Well lets not forget that a standard 72K service will include cam belt and auxillary belt kits, so that sounds about a standard price. One of the Renault specialist should be able to quote you a price that is half that of Renault.

Could always get an GTT1 from ebay, a snip at this price. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1980-W-Reg-RE ... 415ad6199e
