Trophy #381

[Clart]

So i was due to pick up Trophy #50 today after leaving a deposit a couple of weeks ago. I spotted another on ebay which i wanted to view too knowing that i would let the other seller down and lose the deposit if i bought it. I drove #381 and was just blown away.

47k
2 owners
shock refurb at BG motosport
AST top mounts
both belts done
Currently running around -2 degrees of camber on the front
Scorpion exhaust with decat
Pilot Sport 3 tyres
Whiteline ARB (hello oversteer)

And the best bit

Wilwood 4 pots, DS2500s and 295mm AP rotors froms jamsport (£1200s worth). Also included the original brake setup, including Calipers, new ktec disks and some more DS2500s.

I'm genuinely gobsmacked how well this thing drives! Its a little rough around the edges but nothing that cant be sorted. I couldnt resist it, so let the other seller know who was very understanding and even offered me my deposit back if his sold quickly (thanks Dave).

I've been after a trophy ever since i sat in Lee's 007 many years ago, and im not disappointed. Awesome cars.

Bargain that! Even more so if you consider the add-ons.

On Austins BG 182. Spoiler is on that too IIRC.

Would love a trophy one day (and a Williams, R5, 21 turbo, megane r26r and V)

How did he get them off the LY ??

Has the guy bought it back and sold the bits?

On Austins BG 182. Spoiler is on that too IIRC.

Didnt he already have turinis? Or has he swapped them for the cursed ones?

007 history : Lee - Mod on the forum was the first owner, then a bloke called Dan IIRC, then michael who I bought it from, then me, now joe has it.

Parts went to the following :

Seats - Sam (bonxy)
Wheels - Tommy C, now owned by cliods and subsequently written off
Suspension - Cant remember but wish I never sold it, it was mint
Spoiler - Elliott - Exclusive with gold williams wheels on it

Austin collected his trophy turini's from that guy who was breaking a trophy a while back, selling parts off it dirt cheap, sure he only paid £300 for the turini's in total lol


For those that want to know how 007 is now.......RUNNING! Has a full trophy interior in it out of trophy 2**, coilovers, compomotive TH's and currently no spoiler but will probably have something soon, then it will be for sale

 

[TimR26]

Good buy, any plans for it?

 

[Clart]

Not a lot really, other than tidying up and a decent detailing. I may well sell the brakes, as good as they are, they are complete overkill for what i need. I found some decent roads today, its a truly epic piece of machinery.

How dare you put my name and 007 together knuckles! Shame on you lol
