Default WOW!! old boy with a rare scooby

Sold my house to a old boy who is about 65-70 and he said I might like to see one of his cars. So the other day he popped round in a MINT MY96 Colin Mcrae special edition This car was perfect like it just come out of a showroom and the colourWOW. He said only 200 were made.

I have never seen one in the flesh and I fell in love with it

I want one!!

The pic was taken on my phone so it does not bring out the colour well. When the sun shines on it the purple comes out and looks stunning

I am a big fan of the classic, even more when they are rare.

The series McRae is a uk special edition! Look on scoobypedia or the likes and you can find out about all the uk limited editions. The jap cars are different limited runs altogether .

he had the 22b then on his 21st got a m3 and had a race going escort rs turbo, last i heard he had a brand new m3 and a 600-700bhp evo 6 as a road toy! dad owns a heap of old folks homes!

the reason he got the 22b i heard was he went home cryin, as he had the slowest scooby down the beach, so daddy phoned scooby and asked whats the fastest scooby u sell and they said we do a 22b at just under 60k so he said il take it! i wish my dad would do that lol
