**** the bed!

Looks in good order. Kind of suggests this is being marketed to a collector who will just bung it in storage and wait it out.

Really? Blimey, that is a particularly ambitious price to pitch it at then.

If it is the one the only reason it was found out was because someone got hold of the auction sheet. It may well not be this one but it rings a bell

Bloody hell! Does look good on paper (and in those photos), but that is serious money.

You're going to have to up your efforts on the saving front if that's reflective of the market!

Looks like it! Still, if I was in a position to spend that sort of money, I think I'd save a bit more and go the whole hog and buy a ex-WRCar!

Oh really!? From what I've read, their cars are usually spot on. Any idea what the damage was?

Think thats a bit overpriced at the moment, they will get to that figure but its too early at the moment IMO

Theres also better cars out there with lower mileage and better history (including the Jap history) to be had

Suppose theres no harm in trying for big money and hoping somebody comes along though........

Don't miss mine at all, was nice to have had one as was always on my list but I think if I decide to go the scooby route again, i'd go for a nice type-r and spend the remainder on some subtle modifications

Yeah, I know the one you covet only too well!

Someone brought the one in the link to my attention though, so timing seemed ideal for this thread!
