Default 2001 2.5L JDM STi bugeye

2001 JDM STi7 2.5 (type 25 engine)
I have owned this car for 8 years and never thought I would sell it but I just don't use it any more so the time has come.

MOT until December 2014
89500 Miles
JDM so has rear wiper, close ratio non DCCD 6 speed box, electric folding mirrors
2.5L genuine Litchfield type 25 engine - installed by Litchfield 44000 miles ago ( was brand new block, crank, all forged internals, ACL bearings, Spec C heads, etc).
MD195 turbo
Alloy Radiator
Exedy "pink" clutch
Fidenza Lightweight Flywheel
Full (from Turbo) Miltek sports CAT stainless exhaust
Rear Alloy droplinks + Whiteline antiroll bar
Rota GRA 18' Wheels + 4 x nearly new Toyo Proxy T1
Morette headlights
Front grooved brake disks (+ EBC pads)
probably some other stuff I forgot.

I brought the car from Litchfield Imports in 2006, had the engine replaced by Litchfield and a safe map put on with the view to getting bigger injectors, front mount, bigger turbo etc later on but I never did get round to it. so it's not really been thrashed at the top end as there is no point as the current turbo runs out of puff around 6K. Runs somewhere around 330BHP.

In its life with me it's had a full respray after an incident with a aluminium framed gazebo which rolled over the car scratching it in a number of places, I also had someone hit me from behind at low speed requiring a new rear bumper and tail pipe both happened some years ago now (not sure if these show up or not on HPI check etc).

Its 13 years old now and was the family car for quite a few years so has some wear and tear inside and out:
- Slight bit of scuffing on the back of the passenger seat
- The Alcantara stuff on the front seats is a little worn in places (but not torn or worn through).
- Scuff on front bumper lower passenger side
- Bonnet has a 10p size small dent in it at the front leading edge
- Front drivers side wing has a couple of small dents in it
- Scuff on drivers side rear bumper
- rear passenger side quarter has a couple of inches long very thin scratch
- Small bit of rust on boot where spoiler meets it (body is rust free apart from this)
- the inside door shuts have marks where seat belt buckles have been shut in the doors.
- some small scuffs on the front wheels
- small chip in windscreen (not MOT fail)

Other bad points:
I have old MOTs to prove the mileage but *NO* service history at all (did not come with any as an import, never thought I would sell it so did not bother) have some proof from Lichfield about the engine.
Its due a Cambelt service now.
The gearbox whines a bit but has done for years.
Engine sounds a bit rough but has done for years.
It drinks a fair bit of oil but it's the same amount as did from when new engine installed (it is a forged 2.5 engine).
There is a PSi3 ECU monitor installed in the car (one of the last types) but it no longer works (no idea why/if fixable).
Sound from the driver's side front speaker is a bit intermittent.

£4200

I am located a few miles from J10 of the M11
