Impreza 555 World Rally Car wing as used (and bent) by Colin McRae on the 1997 Rally of Greece. Ideal for serious collector or for hanging in the office - or maybe great over the lounge fireplace if you can convince the wife.... Good promotional use or will appreciate when Colin wins second world title at the end of this season.... Complete with ripples and scratches (all genuine), decals and mudflap and comes with Prodrive letter of authenticity.

Serious offers or will swap for set of 17 inch wheels/tyres.

(Please, no offers of swaps for panels you've bent....)

I bought this from someone who had bought it at a charity auction but who collected mainly Ferrari memorobilia (boring or what)- so persuaded him to sell. Ideally I would like to swap for 17'' wheels/tyres but for cash would be looking for a similar value. Okay I'm not expecting any offers of new P1 alloys and tyres but something used and reasonable.

Offers still invited.....

Your chance to own a piece of motoring history - and far cheaper than buying the whole car..... (probably about £200,000 cheaper!).....

aar!

Why don't you do the generous thing and dontate it to a charity auction? wouldn't you feel better knowing that the money from something so collectable was making someone happy?

....you are surely too familiar with guys donating big money to insurance companies !!

I find it hard to believe the excessive cash that some people are simply throwing away - and seem quite happy to do so - just to keep an Impreza on their driveway. So to suggest that it could be 'the generous thing' to re-donate this for charity is a bit short sighted.

If you want to raise some cash why don't you charge a percentage for selling cars on the site? Cars over £10,000 donate £100?? Uproar, maybe, but surely 1% is fairer than 100%....??
