Supercharged T for sale - maybe

[Robh18]

As per title - Depending on interest and offers I will be putting my supercharged trophy up for sale. Have owned the car for past 5 years, spent over 10k and am now considering selling it to help with deposit on house.
Car is immaculate, covered just 27K miles, is running 275Bhp with Driftbox timer recording 0-62 @ 4.7 0-100 @ 10.2

cheers,
Rob

Thanks

I will eventually post more info guys, car is for sale however I am in no rush and if I can't get what I want for it I am more than happy to keep it. Looking around the 13K mark

Looking around the 13K mark

Can you confirm that you ware looking for £13,000.00 for your Trophy ?

Is it gold plated? It's only my opinion but I would not pay extra for mods on any car

In fact on a Trophy I'd be looking for money off the ticket price if it was modified

In my personal opinion - I like the modifications done to the Clio and I think it would be an absolutely brilliant car to drive and own. But I think it's worth 9k. I don't want to sound insulting , because I love the fact that it's supercharged and the work is top quality. But you will never get the money back that you spent on supercharging it. You would get more for it by returning it to standard and selling the charger kit. I know this because I turbo'd my mx5 and spent a fortune on it. I would have got a lot more for it by breaking it - but I had put too much time and money into it to do that!
Lovely car mate and good luck if you do sell it. My only advice is to keep it if you can afford to because you will lose a lot of money on it plus you will kick yourself for selling one of the most desirable Clio's around!

i would not rag him too much untill we have full spec, but i think as said above, it seems like OP thinks he is going to get his money back, and modified Trophys will bring less money than the same spec "normal" 182

I would return to standard

you would get 7k + then sell any modified parts separately

 

[MarcB]

If the OP is looking for £13k i think its way off mark.

Regardless if its got a list of mods 2 weeks long and its been supercharged or not.
There is very well modded 182's 197's & 200s (Some Turbo) not looking for anywhere near the price of this Trophy.

For around that price i would be looking to buy something like this -

The above has some serious mods also and its still £1k under the £13k asking price for a this Trophy.

IMO you will only get top money £7k/9k for a stunning showroom un-modded Trophy that has next to no miles on it with 1 owner from new and these are very hard to come by.

 

[Robh18]

Fully agree with what you guys are saying regarding the modifications bringing less than what it would be worth standard. I was mearly testing the water regarding prices. You are right I will lose money on my T and this was one of the things I had to consider when I had the work carried out.
I really want a golf r32 now so anyone happy to swap I'm all for that

The only good thing about my T is the fact that it is the only supercharged one around

 

[trophy427]

I don't think it's the only supercharged t I'm pretty sure there is another one out then. I remember talking to some one a few years back about there's.
