Yeah I seem to have a thing with rare cars. It costs a fortune to maintain, lucky it didn't need any welding for the MOT and surprisingly its pretty good underneath. Strut tops are a little scabby which is one of the main places they go, that and where the strut ties into the inner wing. Only...
Top intercooler
Repaired drivers seat... passenger seat next
Split top coolant hose
MOT and some new tyres
Not bad for a 30 year old car with 184000 miles! standard boost, would be around 220 if I ran 18psi but the clutch slips.
Been a while since Ive been on here! Trophy has taken a back seat since I bought the 21. Been using it every day. Its been pretty reliable too, only had a boost and coolant hose split in the year of ownership. Spent far too much on it!
Few pics from the last year:
181000 miles!
Repairing...
Does that now mean that RP clad Trophys will now increase in value!
I for one commend your commitment and attention to detail with the service you provided.
It needs a bit of tlc body wise but mechanically it's pretty good. Interior isn't too bad either. Its so cool to drive, pretty fast even by today's standards. It sounds amazing and smells great!
The 3rd exhaust thats on my car is a pattern part, code is something like REN927. Cost £220 for the whole system. It was the only system I found to have identical tips to the standard system, it also lasted twice as long as the original.
Nah mate, it's just a silicone push button cover, fits nice and snug and creates a good seal around the bottom. My adjusters are the same size as the originals.
