After being inspired by Trev and Mike with regards to their latest steeds i had casually been on the look out for something similar

Car found ,deal done ,roadtrip organised , car home

Just popped down to near Portsmouth this morning

and returned with this;

Basicly standard B series WRX RA with a big gay wing lol and a stainless exhaust. I will put some better pics in a project thread when i start one .

plans are just to fettle it up back to standard ( trim etc )

Brilliant

I was glad that you've updated this quickly mate, as I kept popping back on to see if you had! It looks great and those photos don't really do it any justice at all.

Love the wheels and it was well worth the trip. Well done mate

By the way, I meant to ask, you must be happy with it? Any initial thoughts? Has Ms. Fletcher tapped you up for a drive yet?

I drove it on the trailer then Mrs F drove it into the unit when we got home so i have no idea what it goes like ,she commented on whether she could buy her old one back

Jeez, first it was Golfs, then MX5s, then Golfs and now Scoobies

Looks a good buy though.

At the risk of sounding like a dumbass what's special about the Type RA ? Is it an import ? Is it the one with bare minimum extras designed to be used for the track ?

Hahahaha Excellente
Looks lovely Jason I was looking for a white one myself but ended up being red
And as you probably know the ra only came in red or white
Welcome to the gang
