Guys, I plan on buying my Trophy very soon. I have a couple to look at. Question is, what is the must to check over? Anything in specific?

Many thanks

Mostly the same checks as a 182 but obviously front dampers and springs(yellow), there is a whole thread on this worth ploughing through. The rear dampers are also sachs springs (black) being the same as 182. Rear hatch damping rods are beginning to fail now, lots of money from Reno as they are Clio v6 but much cheaper BMW versions are available. The Recaro's sometimes are a little cranky, make sure they tip and move forwards properly. Many will have had the front discs and pads ungraded rears as standard are good and some will have had the Ik played with, acoustic valve new/different box etc Oh and the rear bench is the crappy cardboard version.
