I think it could do with a new heater panel Gaz - anyone got a spare ???

Titan · Sep 29, 2023

For the price,there still looks to be some very good parts on that.

You should make your money back and more if you were to break it.

Anyone able to glean which number this is? If someone could find out the VRN that may help..

Ajracer · Sep 29, 2023

Apart from the obligatory black mark due to being written off there is potential for someone to resurrect this car.

Looks like the only major damage is forward of the slam panel but the subframe and top mount geo could be all over the place. Who is brave enough

Attempted to contact the breakers with this car in stock today to try and find out which number it is, with no luck I'm afraid.

If I wasn't so far away this would interest me for a winter project.

I know what you mean, it doesn't look too bad does it. Not far from me now, but I think the auction ends in a couple of days and I'd prefer to view physically I think before submitting a bid, sadly work commitments are going to prevent that this week.

Wondering what happened with this... look's like it sold for £2,060.

Will it be broken or will it reappear.

Ian Highfield · Oct 11, 2023

Renault Sport Specialist Parts have the car now and are advertising all the parts. I would have bought but too late to the auction. Breaking not restoring. Not sure on number though.

Cheers for the heads up Ian. Checked it out, and like yourself, enquired about the dampers...

Ultimately a shame the car is being broken though.

Still no joy finding out which number Trophy this is. I feel it would be handy to know, then a note can be made on the owners register that the car has been broken for parts.

SharkyUK · Oct 13, 2023

I have the private plate and the original VRN details, along with the VIN. I'm still awaiting info on which number it is. Once known, the owners register can be updated.

Great news, thanks Andy, I had a feeling you might be able to acquire the info. Did you manage to get your hands on the engine loom?

No problem, Ed. Hopefully, that information (the Trophy number) will be forthcoming very soon and, of course, I will share the knowledge!

Yes, I did manage to get the engine loom, thanks. I'm hoping that this might cure some of the recurrent issues I'm having (although, saying that, #165 has been faultless since I got her back a few months ago, other than an EML due to a failing lambda sensor).

Great to hear #165 has been behaving fairly impeccably recently Andy, glad Mick has been able to work his magic.

@SharkyUK Glad to hear there may be light at the end of the tunnel for 165 finally!

FYI Facebook page updated with parts including Recaros on seat rails with number. Need good eyesight but 140 or 145 ???

It's anybody's guess isn't it from that pic.

Why the fellow breaking it won't answer the questions regarding the number, F knows...

She’s number 160, just been for some bits and pieces and my mates had the seats for his PH1
