    My Trophy by a Traffic Warden

    Having parked 415 in the Sevenoaks Leisure Centre car park late yesterday afternoon, I noticed a traffic warden giving it the once over as I headed for the gym. I was worried that the ticket had blown onto the floor or something, as the local wardens are real bastards around our way. I then went...

    What exhaust?

    Had the car up on the hoist at Ren7Oaks last week to check on the exhaust back boxes and dampers, and although the latter are just fine, one of the back boxes has deteriorated further since it was serviced in September 09. Thankfully it isn't blowing yet, and I am still undecided as to what to...

    Reno parts prices

    Just priced a pair of struts for the hatch and was told that they retail for £225 per strut according to Reno! They are of course shorter than the standard ones because of the V6 spoiler. Indeed, the part number for the struts is the same as for those fitted to the V6. Any one else got some...

    Took 415 in for an MoT on Monday at Forge Garage in Kemsing, west Kent, and the inspector said he had had a Trophy in the week before. Any idea who the car belonged to?

    Trophy sighting in Sevenoaks

    This is a bit of a late one, but been too busy to post. Saw a Trophy heading towards Sainsburys in Sevenoaks (on the road where Davis Renault is sited) several weeks back. I was in 415, and exchanged waves with the drive of the Trophy coming the other way. Any clues as to who I waved at?! First...

    Sure glad I got that detailing done!

    Treated 415 to a full detail and valet from Autowash Detailing (http://www.detailing-specialists.co.uk) last Friday. Really pleased with the finished job (had the WRX done too, and the guy managed to regenerate my oxidising boot spoiler). Then of course it went and snowed. Have not driven the...

    Detailers in west Kent

    Can anyone recommend a good detailing firm in the Sevenoaks (west Kent) area? Would rather use someone that has been recommended. Found Valet-Tech in Dunton Green, but has anyone used them at all? 415 needs a good clean, as does the WRX

    Three Amigos

    Just took this snap to showcase my extensive fleet of motors! Not really. The Rover Cooper is off to Burton-on-Trent tomorrow, having been sold to fund Trophy 415. Luckily, the colour of the latter is a perfect match for my 03 WRX PPP, which I have had from new

    Correct PE2 tyre pressures for normal road use?

    Just got two new PE2s on 415 and I am little confused as to the best pressures to be running them at for normal road use. The handbook says 33 psi for the fronts and 30 for the rears, yet the mechanic at renKnow who fitted them yesterday suggested 30 psi for the fronts and 28 for the rears (I...

    Cam belt change - when to do it and what cost?

    Just bought 415, which had its aux belt changed in August of last year with 18,081 on the clock. Wondering when the cam belt will need doing now. Is the latter due for replacement at three years after manufacture or when the vehicle reaches 36,000 miles (currently done 19,800)? What price have...

    Key ring availability?

    Hope that this is not repeating previous requests. As a new owner of a Trophy, will I be able to order keyrings from the online shop again sometime soon?

    Pilot Exalto PE2 search in west Kent

    New to the forum and the Trophy – just bought 415. I am having trouble sourcing two brand new Pilot Exalto PE2s locally to me here in west Kent. Any idea where I can find them for around £110 each?
