I'm interested to see what this makes as it's not doing crazy money at the moment - looks a lovely car from a distance online too, 1.6 5 speed in Mars Red.
Love that no Mot or Tax are needed which is a bonus...
Morning All
We must be coming up-to having a first 20th birthday of a Trophy - I think the first cars were registered in June 2005 -
Having just HPI’d #001 it was registered 20 June 2005 - is this the first or is there an earlier car ???
Mine is 15th July 2005 -
Let us know when your 20th...
What do you choose now Guys

Quite a variety of cars for sale in this auction - I'd say their is some long term profit on some items with-in, so which would you take and why Chaps...
We do get a mention with the Trophy -
I do argee that some Clio 182's may have doubled in price but that is from a low base to start with and probably after a load of spend too - I've also seen loads being scrapped for parts over the winter too which shows in my view that some are not a vioble...
Hopefully this might help us all keep our T’s in tip top shape -
Ed can you give them a list of all the essential parts that are now extinct 🤣🤣🤣 - brake pipes - heater panels -

Which one would you have out of these two - I think the second one for me.

Or maybe even this lovely thing -

Just found this online -
Ed did the callipers come Black from the factory like the brochure shows -
I'll have a bet you have got a few of these stashed away in paper form too - 💷💷💷
This could make a nice little project for someone - 76000 miles - 2 owners - estimate 3/4k - under the 3k would be a steal.
I had the same car when they were nearly new but I don't think it had a bright blue steering wheel :LOL: :LOL...
This is one for you Ed - I'm sure it will be sat a while at this money - no Recaro's either.

What's everyone's thought's on this - I don't think it looks anywhere near as nice as a 205 -

Have you got any barn find dust left still - I think this might need a little springkle -

Please don't place orders over £140 or you will be slapped with import taxes -
Centre Caps look really cheap too -...
This make our Trophy’s look cheap - I know it’s only done 13000 miles and it’s a classic Ford but I wouldn’t want over 30k in it - nice thing though and does bring back some memories of ringing the neck out of that 1.6 cvh engine 🚗

This looks a bargain that’s for sale on Facebook - also read the man’s story in the link which is very interesting.
If I bought it I’d also ask him for a ride out in his Ferrari Dino which he has owned since 1985
Someone sent me some of these to clean steering wheels - Erase Away spounge.
Not sure if anyone has used them before - but I can’t praise them enough - handy work below.
