i used to be like that, had both my clio and my VTS, finally parted with the saxo to a family member, drove it again the other day, and the clio knocked spots off it
was a sad sad day lol

[Trophy400]

No more progress atm

Still at the bodyshop getting the last few bits sorted

Also I'm on a 3 month waiting list for a wheel, so probably won't be on the road anytime soon

Dont forget the black inserts for the bumper

Thanks nothing on this car is going to be a bodge job hehe I think it was off blue cycle? Can't really remember as I looked at so many different ones at the time

 

[Trophy400]

Trophy is all back together and went for it's MOT yesterday. It passed with flying colours! Going to clean it Sunday and get some pics. Hoping to then tax and insure it for the weekend after

 

[miniron]

Nice work looking forward to seeing the pics of it all finished off. I love the red trophys, I think they look great!

 

[Mark_]

Woop! Looking forward to some photos!

 

[Daz.]

Excellent!

Surprised to see that rust though on the arch..

 

[bennno2005]

The seat belts are brown! Lol

Best thing to sort this is pull the belts out the car, shut them in the door and pressure wash them! They should come up like new!

 

[Trophy400]

Attempted to give the Trophy a good clean. Think i under estimated how dirty it was! Spent hours just cleaning the seat belts, wheels, windows and had to sponge down the interior. Then gave it a quick wash and aqua wax. Need to clay it really as there is looooads of tar spots on it. Sorry for the rubbish pics, need to get a proper camera. Its not anywhere near perfect but it will be on the road on Friday

 

[Sam]

Love thats its all back together and working.

You definatly need some better pictures to. Some carbon washer blanks would look mint on that to.
