    Exhausts

    A bit of a frivolous question/survey as I fancy a change during the T's spring clean. If money was no/not much of an object what would be your preferred exhaust. For me it would have to sound great, not too loud and be well made. And anyone who suggests A Yozza will be beaten around the head...

    Re: Trophy Red Paintwork

    Whats the best technique/product to re-generate/ freshen up & make the Trophy look red again instead of looking faded pink colour? Understand T Cut is not a good idea, machine polish? Mopping? or Turtlewax red colour restorer? Cheers

    Tyre Sizes

    Hi there. I recently bought #091 (Yeah I've read all the history but she's in good shape), and I'm shopping for tyres to fit the stock alloys. Can anyone tell me whether a 215/45/16 will work on them? I have done a bit of research and it seems to be fine but would be grateful if anyone has...

    Refreshing rear suspension

    Hi - probably a dumb question, but if I want to get #478 feeling as "new" as I can, and i'm already all-in for a BG damper refurb, assume it makes sense to do the rears as well. Original sachs rears seem to be £105 as well - questions are: - Just the shocks, or make sense for Springs as well...

    For Sale: #167 @ £5200

    Since I withdrew from sale in 2011 (previous thread here with further details), #167 has done another 10K quick and reliable miles. Still puts a smile on my face with every drive and I hope it goes to a good home. Selling because we now have 2 other cars and the Trophy is not getting used...

    BC Racing Coilovers & My Trophy

    When one of my Sachs failed recently I was in a real dilemma over what to do. To have them refurbished is the best part of £500 just for the front two shocks and there’s no real warranty on the repair. Combine that with the horror stories of people having them refurbished just for them to either...

    Replacement head unit

    Hi All I've just bought number 477 and had it a couple of weeks now. I'm thinking of upgrading the head unit for something more up to date. Has anyone replaced theirs with a flip out? I'm wondering if it being positioned close to the gear lever will be a problem. I'd like something possibly...

    Protecting the Dampers

    Has anyone found a way of perhaps trying to prolong the life of the Sachs? We know that they can suffer with road salt/dirt so just wonder if anyone else has come up with a solution to protect them. I'm not sure where the failure occurs, whether it leaks at the top of the body of the main tube...

    Suspension Woes - Any help hugely appreciated!

    Put the Trophy in for its annual service/MOT and it turns out BOTH front springs are broken and a rear damper is leaking. Car had basically sat for 6 months straight beforehand so I am surprised. Front dampers are fine with no leaks (they were refurbed last August). My questions to you good...

    Best value no-compromise road tyres?

    Which tyres offer the best value & performance in 205/45/16? I only use the T for weekend fun so road noise & wet weather capabilities are of no concern, I just want great performance & value for money. Of course, they have to be road legal too! Suggestions & recommendations most appreciated.

    Need help with important decision

    Just brought a trophy and one of my front sachs has gone :( plus I have snapped a spring. Been advised by bg that its best to get both done at the same drive in and out cost around £700(without springs) I've read some people are switching them out for h&r's/spax rsx kits and I'm swaying...

    Sachs adjusters

    Hi, I've just had my dampers back from Simon at Cornering Force and don't hesitate to fully recommend his service. They are now 'unpinned' and so I want to try and understand what the adjuster actually does and to what degree. Does anyone have a damper curve for the Sachs at different levels...
