It pains me to do this and I know I'll regret it but #167 is going up for sale.
Its been a very short romance but a change in work location and a newly acquired diesel daily means its now a 3rd car and prob won't get used.
I hope the previous owner doesn't mind me robbing the particulars...
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

Just picked up the trophy on monday and thinking about getting it undersealed for the winter. Can anyone recommend any places in the north east, where its worth taking it to.
This weekend will be the first chance I've had to give the Trophy a quick detail since buying it, I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a wax for the red of the T?
Also what are peoples opinions on colour charged waxes (Dodo juice) waste of time?
Thanks
Heres the write up of the detailing session my good friend Olly (Snow Shine) carried out for me. After having him work on my EK9 before and seeing the results along with his various other clients I knew the car was in safe hands. I really can't recommend him enough and if you're on the South...
I want to have my Trophy wax oiled/ under sealed. Has anyone got any reccomendations for someone to do it, in the midlands area? I know i could do it myself but i havent got any ramps and i dont fancy crawling around getting filthy and wax oil every where. Would also like a proper job with it...
After all the recent snow, my Trophy was looking desperate for a thorough clean.
I decided to give it a machine polish yesterday to get it back upto standard.
No befores as it was just too cold....that cold that i half way through i tempted on leaving it.

This set up will fit a 182 Cup, a 182 with Cup Packs and the Trophy.
I bought the dampers off a guy on Cliosport last July. I have not even fitted these to my car as I have been preoccupied with another...

Righto, my front sachs started leaking so i've removed them from the car, sent them off to BG to be stripped, they've sent them back to me to be blasted and coated then i'm sending them back for refitting. While that's being done i'm working on the rest of the susp.

Essentially, on Saturday, somebody parked their rather clean looking Trophy in our car park next to mine, the gf noticed & said, 'that red clio's really nice'. After then explaining to her that it was a Trophy, just like mine, & that under all the dirt, they were both exactly the same colour ...

I'm thinking of starting to machine polish the trophy as i can see some general swirling which would be nice to get rid of. Has anyone been doing this on there T? Does anyone know is our paint clear coat or two part and does the paint seem to be quite soft? I should find this by experimenting...
