    Trophy Turini Wheel For Sale

    I have a refurbed Trophy Turini for sale. I just paid £55 to have it refurbished, but colour match is not perfect i.e. not as glossy as the original wheel and marginally darker in colour. In fact I'm not even sure it's possible to refurb these wheels to their exact original finish unless you...

    "Destructive Misfire" --> new injector

    #167 has been into the dealer again this week to diagnose and rectify a Check Engine light. The code has been cleared and re-tested a couple of times and came back with "destructive misfire on cylinder 3" on both occasions. The light seemed to be coming on in stop-start traffic or low speed...

    Thinking of selling - what's it worth?

    Got an exciting job offer that would involve a company car which I will have to take because they don't offer a car allowance in lieu of the car. Really annoying but it would be stupid of me to turn down the company car. Anyway, I was wondering what anybody thought about a fair price for my...

    Loud creaking from boot area.

    Done a search and I think I may be the first one to report on this! My Trophy has developed a loud creaking from the rear of the car over the past couple of months, I thought it could have been the interior trim in the boot, or the boot lock and rubber stops, but i've tried replicating the...

    First photos of my Trophy

    Picked it up last week, and finally managed to give a clean this weekend. Although it looks uber clean, the paintwork has a fair ammount of swirls, and although I have clayed the car, it is still like sandpaper in some areas!. Perhaps a more aggressive 'clay' required? Anyway...

    changing dampers

    Have just spoken to Rentech in Portsmouth about my Trophys hard ride. I love the car but using it every day, sometimes its just too hard. They have said that they can remove the pins from the dampers which will make the ride softer, however they have not had any feed back from the few trophys...

    Tail pipes not level with each other

    Just a quick question, received my exhaust today and notice that the tail pipes are not level with each other. I would have thought if I stood it on the floor, both the tailpipes would be flat on the floor and look straight from the side view. Mine don't. If one is fully resting on the...
