Default Subaru STI Spec C Type RA *FOR SALE £18500*

My mate Nick is trying is selling his mint Spec C type RA, he isn't a member on here so Ive copied his advert and also included the link over to the MLR (he owned a number of Evo's beforehand and still posts over there)

Pics also in the link, take a look please, very nice car, immaculate.


http://www.lancerregister.com/showthread.php?t=325460



As title,
For sale is my Type RA. *17500* NO OFFERS
Exceptionally clean car, quite literally immaculate, outside , inside and underneath, a stunning road car, and amazing track tool should you decide to use it for track.

Only 350 made worldwide,

This is the only Hawkeye WR Blue Type RA in the UK, that is correctly registered with regards the model report.
According to Iain Litchfield @ Litchfield Imports where it was purchased from in may this year.
So a bit of a rarity, there are approx only 3 more in the country, in white and silver.
It is a 55 plate car, the car has 19,500 miles (mileage edited as I have actually been using it in the better weather ) on it, has only been in the country for 21/2 years and has never seen a British winter, nor rain for that matter (unless accidently ) i am the second owner.
Its absolutely immaculate underneath , in the arches etc.

I fitted after purchase, around a month ago, a new walboro 255 fuel pump, new hotter 7 iridium plugs, (which it turned out the car was running anyway) new Miltek Twinscroll full decat exhaust system , turbp back.
New induction kit , with K&N sitting nicely in the inner wing.
It also has fitted a 3 guage pod on the dash, with Defi B/F oil temp,water temp, and boost pressure and control box to recall peaks, replay up to 3 mins of info and various other features.
Its is fitted with a Tracker and cat one alarm and other security devices.
Also fitted to it is a Laser star parking sensor device, front and rear which rrp around £350 fitted.(also happens to be the same frequency as police laser guns)
It has brand new REO70 tyres in the Japanese market only only 235 width , Virtually every part of the car has been polished and treated with Blackfire products since i bought it, underneath , arches, outside , and engine bay.

Interior is mint, and unlike the "Normal STI,s has the full black interior, carpets, seats , doorcards and matt black dash
The seats and doorcards are part black alcantara and are unmarked , totally!!

It was remapped by Paul Blamaire @ Zen performance one of the best out there in the Subaru field.
Running 1.7 bar peak, falling to around 1.5 held, very safe map and running around 350-360 horses and probably around 360-370 lbft torque.

Link to the thread i put up when i bought it with many more pictures......
http://www.lancerregister.com/showth...ht=replacement

It is taxed till the end of august and Mot till next year, its only just had the fluids( all of them) changed, so absolutely nothing needs doing to it, other than fuel and driving

Full history with it, all the Import and SVA paperwork, ltd edition Alcantara document wallet and all other relevant paperwork is present, with 2 full sets of keys and alarm fobs.
I dont need to sell , but i am plotting
I have spent nigh on £2000 since buying it, so as other spec C's with similar mileage but less spec, and in standard form , and obviously none of the RA specific upgrades tend to go for around £18-£19k i am asking £19,995****Reduced to £18,500***** for this , which bearing in mind what i paid and not taking into account the money spent on it either is a fair price for some serious exclusivity
The car is based in East Yorkshire .
Note: the reg plate does not come with the car!! It will revert back to its original 55 plate .
Spec...............

Roof vent
Lightweight boot lid.
Lightweight bonnet.
Lightweight glass all round.
Lightweight roof skin with roof vent.

Yes will be bumped upto what Nick initially wanted probably, yes maybe with warranty but im not saying this because I know Nick, but if I was to pick who I was going to buy a car off, it would be him, infact it would be too good for what im like with cars lol.

Grab yourself a bargain then & buy it before they mark it up

Years ago I went to buy a DC2 Integra ... went to Honda Stealers who had one they could get hold of for £16k ... found another privately for about £14k ... turns out it was the same one the Stealers wanted to sell to me

Nick has told me to put this up on the thread.

I assume you dont mean the Golf GTD in which case third from the bottom is the Arai (V limited) Immy sold the car about a month ago, he had it in in April, i was actually all set to buy it when Litchfield offered me the Type RA, having done mucho research i went for the RA as it is a much better specced car, all the suspension is different, makes a huge difference to the overall handling, the interior is the cheap Blue black spec c interior in the Arai, the RA is all black , carpets, seats, matt black dash etc.
Plus mine has had over £2000 spent on it , had got brand new tyres, and had never seen a British winter and is immaculate, and one of only a handful of RA's in the country.
Thanks anyway warren or freind/ brother of warren for the attempted devalueing link on my for sale thread !!!

ps; don't shoot the messenger!

All I will say is the car is immacualte, like every car Nick own's, hes a good lad and seems to be getting messed about, all im getting at, is if Nick says its a well looked after car, it will be.

I think its fair priced tbh.
