As per the title, are there any known issues or problems to look out for when buying? My brother is going to look at and test drive a 265 trophy on Saturday. Sadly I can't go with him so wanted to arm him with as much info as I can. Is there anything specific that he should be looking for or asking? Cheers
I think some 250s suffered from a cambelt rattle but I believe it was rectified before the trophy was produced. I'm sure someone can clarify.
Yep cam belt rattle is worth looking out for it sounds like a spanner left in the engine bay very distinctive. Had it on my 250 2010 plate it may well have been sorted out for the newer models. Look out for plastic trim bodywork not fitting flush as mine isnt great on the rear arches. Also plastic in the wheel wells can crack, rear part as they come in two sections I was quoted 45 each corner per sheet so check those and if cracked use that to negiotiate the price down.
