A courier delivered these boys to work yesterday :)
They've been given a quick clean, next job is to remove the springs so i can deal with the rust in the bottom of the "cup"

mmmm, nice.

Was just curious as to how the dampers on the trophy's hold out. I seem to hear many stories about people having to buy new ones or have their old ones rebuilt. Sorry to go off your topic slightly but was just interested to know.

Looking good though!

I thought the warranty didnt cover dampers as they're a wear and tear item??

Yeah i think most of it is ClioSport scaremongering, there have been some failures but when you consider the number of miles we've all done and the punishment some of them have taken it's to be expected that a few will go down.
The reason i got these is that Mark Fish informed me that he thought i may have a problem with mine (they may have leaked at some point) but having done about 1k of quite hard miles since then with no problem i think they are probably fine and also they were fairly cheap and with only 24k on them probably the lowest milage ones likely to come up, for £180 each i'm fairly happy to mothball them, i would have pulled out if they had gone up much further.
