Re: New Proxes ! now wearing a nappy when driving
Toyo changed the compound the tyres were made from and the location if I remember correctly, must be three years ago now and the handling problem mentioned above came to light when the rears were changed but not the fronts.

It was treated as a belt and braces approach, the Trophy has the larger discs so stopping was not a problem you just have to remember to pump the pedal if the front wheels lock, up as in the old days.

Re: Brake Servo Support
I have changed both on my Trophy as it has no ABS, I used the MG Mania bracket, the old air box is a pig to remove as you have to destroy it to get it out but the snorkel just bolts on, I remember that the original advert for the mounting bracket had a video clip that was almost sexual.

Re: Trophy Mpg
I believe that the 160 VVC engine is good with fuel economy and emissions for is age and HP, as the VVC acts over all of the engine RPM range.

Re: Difficult to engage gears
Check the condition of the quadrant on the gear change at the gear box itself, mine was badly worn and I changed it for a Mike Satur replacement, it needs careful setting up too.
