Kwakman,

No this has its own plate.



Your new plate was from my previous scoob.

Pete, it is a version 8, well spotted, i brought it back in my time machine

I was going to leave the asking price off the advert, in order to save the moderator some hassle, but i'll start at £11,000.

Cheers
Phil.

That car is absolutely gorgeous, why are you selling it?. I used to own its identical twin, same colour same seats etc and IMHO Sonic Blue is THE colour to have. I sold mine last summer and still miss it. Dont do it.

Dave172,
The STI 4 has (i think) a VF24 or VF28?? The VF23 is the original turbo from the STI 3 engine. It is apparently larger, therefore has the potential for more power etc (or thats what i understand anyway)

I'm unfortunatly selling due to an increase in insurance, following the claim for the accident. The repair for my car was 8 pounds (yes, EIGHT whole pounds) more than my excess, trouble was the third party and the likes of Claims Direct which forced me to make a claim (my only claim in 4 and a half years)

I would love to keep the car, but haven't found the insurance premium yet, despite looking down the back of the sofa, i'm still about £2999.50 short)

What am i getting next? Well actually i've already replaced her, but with two cars (yep, its a hard act to follow for just one car) an audi A4 avant TDI, and a 205 1.9 GTI. 55mpg and lots of fun (just not at the same time).

Cheers
Phil.

I had the pleasure of having a look at this car a few weeks ago. It is really in excellent condition.

Phil also does not mention that the Knocklink and Lamdalink are carefully built into the dashboard which gives a very neat appearance while still providing valuable information.

Absolute bargain!

Flogged my high-ish miles STi 4 Type R last month, in white (less desirable in the eyes of many people), for a few k more...

Back to the top and well worth a look at this money folks!

Hiya Phil! no joy with the insurance then? shame mate, but sounds like you have the balance right with your new motors!
and will probably save a few quid to boot!

anyway this car has to be heard! its awesome, specialy when you can hear it coming up behind you when you have yur stereo on in your own car!

Are you coming to the rally on the 9th of march? or are you working?

cheers Lee

Hi Lee,

My 2 replacement cars will be cheaper, i'll just loose that permanent grin.

As for the rally, try and keep me away!! I'll mail you nearer the time to find out where to go (to the prospective buyers: I'm only spectating)

Cheers
Phil.
