Trophys are cheap as chips nowadays

 

[Joe#]

That's a very good price

Looks good but thats a considerably half ass'd advert i'd say.

The car had a crash in 2006, I can't comment on the severity of it though. Could be nothing.

thought so for the money must be cat d, or repaired without insurance involved :dapprove:

 

[aucky]

You are best off just ringing the guy tbh.

I got mine for cheaper but there was a few things i had to sort out like a broken spring, Air con pipe, Cam belt, service and rear discs and pads.

Saying that i had a few added extra bits like the yozza, RS tuner remap & pipercross pannel filter.

Trophys are not holding there money atall at the moment, when i was looking a few years ago they where going for £6.5 all day long

 

[aucky]

Yeah. I bought mine for £6.8k 2 years ago, and I could have easily sold it for the same money 6k miles and 6-8 months later.

 

[MarcB]

The guy was looking for a quick sale and i guess i was just there at the right time.
I have seen a trophy go for as low as £3500 but i dont think the maintenance upkeep that a car needed had been done as there was no record of t/belt or aux belt, service history was very poor and there was a bad scuff over the rear bumper and it had done a fair few miles.

I hope that one day trophys do go back up in price.

 

[Gally]

I think it's went past the value think. If they had stuck around 5/6 then maybe but I don't think they were different enough from the 182 to work.

Look at the prices of the 182s just now.

thats the sellin prices these days, one thing askin 6k+ but if you wanna sell its gotta b CHEAP

 

[jenic]

It mat need the suspension doing, so factor in another £400 at least.

Tbf, its still a good price, someone on the Trophy forum is after a good low mileage example and he seems willing to pay up to £7k for the right one.

 

[NFox]

That is very cheap indeed, its a shame they are dropping in value so much. Wont be long until you see them going round with Lexus lights etc :/
