Wheels are ghey

 

[Gally]

Cheapish car for 3k.

 

[Tommo.]

I'm sure this has been for sale for a long time??

 

[Mr R.]

No idear, after seeming Tims on Saturday at Cubs house i want one.

Can't afford one at the moment.

 

[Mr Plums]

That looks really clean apart from the alloys which has already been mentioned, well worth that as long the belts havnt been done in Roberts back garden.

Yep, pretty sure you're right

 

[Ranter22]

It's on Ebay being sold by a dealer http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2005-RENA...7373017?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item43c628d2d9

So he's a car trader and gives no warranty?, nice. Advert alone would put me off. The reason and it may be daft but the different coloured writing is crap. These cars imo should be advertised really well, this hasn't. Oh and no service history either? Where do I sign.

 

[Tim.]

Have the Sachs dampers ever been refurbed? If not expect to pay ~£500 to have them done. Does it even have the dampers or is it running a Cup setup? If so then it's just a red (/pink) 182

That was for sale for nearly a year on AT. Something's a miss with it IIRC.

Was going to say the above.

It has been for sale for ages, i might be totally wrong but I'm sure someone from either this site or clio trophy mailed the seller ages ago about it

 

[Chi]

He tried telling me they are the original wheels. . He's paid 2 5k or less as that's how much I was offered it for. .

Yes it has, coming up to a year that i know off.

 

[Mr R.]

So what's wrong with it then?

 

[mossyv6]

First impressions ................ last!!!!!

 

[Chi]

It's been slated on cliotrophy. .

 

[Edd]

It's been slated on cliotrophy. .

Isn't that pretty much standard on there if a trophy doesn't have Turinis?

Were you not tempted for £2.5k Chi? It's got to be worth that if it's HPI clear.

 

[Chi]

Nearly but the guy selling didn't seem to know anything I asked..

 

[Detail Chris]

Yeah this was for sale in East London a while back. I assume the wheels are 15" but it's still way to high. Assume it's got some tat suspension fitted!?

 

[R-Sport.]

There was a thread on CT about it- its in sh*t condition all round.

Hi every1,I'm new to this site and just seen this post,to set the record straight,I actually bought the trophy numbered 166 last weeken,the car is mint apart from the hideous wheels and a coupe of wee tiny dinks as to be expected,the belts were done at Renault at 66k now on 69k,phoned Renault to double check the receipt,the dampers are very clean and have definatly been done at some point,will put photos of the car up soon, ANY1 GOT TROPHY WHEELS FOR SALE??????

 

[midge]

I was interested in this car but the seller couldn't tell me if it had Sach's, and didn't know what a de-phaser pulley was, i didn't want to travel to find a piece of s**t, if it has the sach's and the pulley is good then it was a cheap car!

 

[Meldrum84]

Hi midge,all Sach's are perfect,I have put clio trophy 166/500 for sale in Google and the garage had it up for 5500 but say it has the wheels but not complaining as got it for more than 3000 off that,sure I'll find wheels soon,will try get photos up tonight
