Estimated value at £175,000 - 200,000. Reckon they'd do a straight swap for an '05 STi? ;)

Certainly a classic worth owning, maybe not for driving though, definite collectors item.

If I remember rightly the original article I read on the restoration of the car mentioned that it had been mapped to run on 99 ron fuel, so it's already the perfect daily! :doubleup:

if your commute doesn't exceed the 1000km life/rebuild limit of the engine and most other components........

Sitting on the wrong side of the car to drive it takes a bit of getting used too, I keep thinking the handbrake is in the door stowage pocket...
