Trophy woes

Post by MrNatural » Fri Jul 22, 2022 8:24 pm

On the way back from France my engine melted the inner timing belt cover. Can anyone help me locate one please? They seem to be like hens teeth unfortunately. Part number LJR104760 :(
Thanks for looking guys.

If it's any consolation we managed to melt the motherboard on my wifes laptop on the way back from Italy one year.
I blame the person who put it in the boot against the rear engine bulkhead, and it wasn't my wife - 0pps.

Thanks for these Mark, but they are for the standard mpi car's. Any inner covers for the vvc car's are nigh on impossible to source.
However, managed to find one on a second hand engine, so hopefully the Trophy will be back on the road soon :thumbsu:
