Just to add.
No idea if brake servos are LHD and RHD specific. Autodoc is suggesting this is a LHD part.
Alternatives are buying one off a 182 being broken or getting one rebuilt by a specialist restorer.
I didn't think it would take twenty years and buying one for me to spot my first Trophy.
My son was more excited and then a bit upset that we went out in the VW.
Spotted a trophy leaving Enfield, London @ 3pm today via the Ridgeway. From doing a search I couldn't work out who this was on the forums.
Terrible photo of AO55HNJ from my dashcam.
I'd suggest cleaning and putting rust inhibitor on the shell before the rust takes hold while replacing the springs.
Where is the car being exported too?
Shame this didn't come up before I bought a new exhaust for #256. Meant to be one of the better aftermarket exhausts for the 182.
£440 collected
Yozza exhaust
For anyone else looking for an interior and is near Bristol, this is a bargain. Full rear interior, comes with rear bench, plastic trim, carpet, underlay, boot trim and boot carpet.

Wrong offset for trophy wheels.
Sets of 182 cup turini's come up fairly often on the Facebook clio sale groups. May need a respray but the easiest way to get them in Et45 offset
Photo Ed posted a set of clio cup dampers previously for sale.
I had the same issue and ended up buying a set of dampers via the trophy Facebook group. They come up every so often or just post asking for a set.
I struggled with springs and ended up with Mark fish Eibachs. Since then, grams...
They will work and quite competitively priced.
Quite a few people fit the Brembo high carbon discs to their car. Link below so you can compare sizes to the ebay ones.

A trophy made a guest appearance in the back of a TDC video. I think the car might belong to his dad.
The T appears at 14m39s.

I was close to buying one back in 2009 and ended up buying a cheap Avensis as I bought my first flat instead.

Quick write up as I have my hands full tonight. Not had a chance yet to try a car on PS3 tyres so won't be able to give a comparison.
Grip - no difference between wet and dry grip. On B roads I've not found the tyres limiting the cars capabilities and I've yet to find the limits of grip. Since...
Could this be exlenanded to track Trophy sales through any car auctions.? I believe three or more sold via other auctions last year.
Although I buy quite a few parts from Facebook marketplace it's still not my preference as the common scams and issues persist.
Hope this helps someone.
