Mine was a Masters car. I picked it up from that very garage, they had seven or eight stored in the rear of the building. It does have a few issues but someone with the right amount of cash is going to get a nice motor.

To all those earlier disparaging comments. I’m sorry you’re wrong, just look at that….. To be fair, although they got the rear looking almost perfect, the front kit is just not quite right.

I was hoping to get some pictures over of the first Trophy meet but they are on a laptop with a very dodgy hard drive and I really need someone who knows what they are doing to rescue them and ten years of other pics. Probably not good enough anyway.

New mattress today so everything under the bed has to come out and be cleaned and of course opened and re examined. There can’t be too many of these with the original cars?

Indeed, I have no idea what he is now doing but suspect the “downsizing” might be a tell. Not sure he will ever completely hang up the spanner’s. How the car is set and preferred is always going to personal, l love the orb, if I remember you hated it 😉 but In terms of optimum handling he was...

There is a chap of the FB page canvassing for a possible group buy of the Mark Fish spring package. Probably a big ask with the appearance of the Grams version but they are arguably the ultimate Trophy spring setup. 😁

Totally with you there, I caught myself looking at them in a sort of Homer “Mmmm donuts” kind of way, despite the fact that I have more sets than i will probably ever need.

Little strong for me and I suspect, for most others as well...

No. I won’t bore you but got let down and finding someone to take it was one of this weeks (I’m off) jobs but I really would win a gold medal for procrastination. Meanwhile the list of jobs gets longer……………. Lots and lots, rear bumper held on by a couple of screws at the moment. 😛

Sorry guys, did you think it was going to be something else 😉

I think that was a bit cheap. Lots of work done and foundations of a nice car. Just needs a little more to push it over the line.

Talk the talk, walk the walk. Sorry 🙄

At £8k with that much spent under its belt that would an absolute bargain and probably even at £10 but it seems to be a buyers market at the mo and if you are wanting +12k it is going to have to walk the walk as well as talk the walk.

Ah okay, my nosey around will have to wait.

489 seems to have disappeared from the listings now??

You would have to disappointed with that having spent £5k. Outwardly that is going to good on someone’s drive but…………..

I think Mike256 was looking for a set.

`mc45, if you use the Getechniq restorer, C4 I think, you will get a lot of the original colour back on the ones you have.

I wish it were more enviable. I suspect there are others with more 😉 I saw what happened with the 5GTT scene when parts literally disappeared overnight and I failed to read the writing on the wall with the Clio stuff until too late. Some of the stuff I have for the 5 is worth a small fortune...

Pah, that’s nothing. I have a pair of in bag rear exhaust surrounds. Priceless I’d say.

Nice choice, the Megane keeps pulling at me but it would have to be my daily and putting 1000 miles a month on the BMW diesel is far less painful.

I can echo all of the above, very happy. Thanks Marc.

I’m not sure they were ever put on a jig and actually tested side by side. I think it was just accepted that the rears could not be that much different Sachs to Cup. If I didn’t have original spares, the cup option wouldn’t be a difficult decision.

I believe that amount is for the pair but @Mike256 in reference to your comment above, Kam say this: These are also fitted to the rear of the Renault Clio 182 Trophy models as the standard Sachs dampers are not able to be replaced or rebuilt. These Koni adjustable rear dampers work well for...

I have a set of the Mark Fish Koni adjustable (which he sold alongside his Trophy/182 springs) so I’m not sure where that information came from, perhaps they are different? I do have the boxes/model numbers for those.

Pm’d

^ Exactly.

Aaahh, every single argument and counter point you are ever likely to hear in one bite sized thread. Fun though with a lot of the stuff fitted that I would have liked to do when I had more money than sense.

Here you go. I have pm’d you as well, let me know if it’s okay.
