Finally collected the car yesterday.
My thanks to Kevin for:
a) keeping at DVLA and breaking down all the obstacles caused by their bungling. (In fairness I understand that they pulled out all the stops - once Kevin made a formal complaint);
b) keeping the car looking fabulous. No-one (and that's about 20 people so far) believes that the car is 7 years old. In fact they all presume it's new. (I'll be kidnapped and held ransom now);
c) keeping the car mechanically monstrous. It's absolutely awesome.
"A Hawk with the torque".
Absolutely top owner and seller IMHO.
I'm hoping to take it to Japfest for a couple of hours at least.

At the moment I'm HOPING to be there.
DVLA STILL haven't finally sorted things re. the new standard UK reg, and I've got to get my plates on it and there's a backlog according to DVLA Cardiff this morning.
It's taken so long that I'm now committed to parking it in the lot, if I get there. Perhaps I'll take the wife and daughter's Corsas to act as bodyguards for it.

85 miles to bring it to its new home.
Stopped off at a picnic site after 50 miles, opened the bonnet up and cooked a mixed grill on the IC.
You should have seen the look on people's faces.
One said 'trust the Japs to come up with something like that'.
(Only joking Kev !

I took it to a mate of mine, at the car sales where he's a 'big cheese'.
I asked if he did part-ex's and when he said 'yes' I offered him the Type 20 for all the cars he had on the forecourt.
He laughed, and got in for a demo.
I'm disappointed in him.
When he got out he said he'd s**t himself.
A real man would have had an erection and messed his pants.

I've been 'testing' it (no boy racer nonsense) and any mods are pointless.
It's more than enough for anyone (other than racers who want to TRY to max it out. IMHO you'd have to be at least a semi-pro to appreciate any increase in performance).
Stunning.
First question my car salesman mate asked was 'how do you value a car like that?'
V5 should be with me by Tuesday.
That concludes not simply a For Sale ad but a nice little blog about 'what happened next' etc.
If you'll excuse me I have to change my pants...................

A Very Sad Ending
Regrettably (not the most appropriate word I'm afraid) Kevin passed away yesterday morning, 6th May 2013.
RIP Robocop, and thanks for the stunning legacy.

MY06 Litchfield Spec C Type 20 in World Rally Blue metallic.
An opportunity to own a very rare and highly regarded vehicle. A very useable power/torque band, makes this a perfect point to point car.
One fastidious owner from new, this car has wanted for nothing. Always correctly warmed and cooled down and treated with complete sympathy by a mature owner. Never ever used in salt/winter conditions and very rarely in the rain, this vehicle’s condition is exception, inside, outside and underneath. No trackday use. It has only been run on Shell Optimax or V-Power and I have every fuel receipt to prove this. Only ever washed carefully using the two bucket method and using Blackfire detailing products.
Only 29,888 miles from new, never damaged or repaired, it is as straight as the day it rolled off the line. It has a full service history, always using high end Motul oil, mostly done by RCM, but also Powerstation/Litchfield. MOT till 8th March 2014
Supplied new by Iain Litchfield of Litchfield Imports on 24th January 2006, it also benefits from the cheaper £270 per year tax (£148.50 for 6 months). Iain will confirm the condition of the vehicle (01684 850 999) and that he only made between 16 – 20 of these very limited editions.
Olly and Matt Clark of Roger Clark Motorsport will also attest to the stunning condition of this vehicle. In fact Olly Clark drove it and fine tuned the suspension settings of the AST’s whilst I was attending a photo shoot for the cover of the first ever issue of Total Impreza. Please feel free to call them on 01455 610 728, to confirm the above.
Most people on here know what the vehicle is, but for the uninitiated, here’s an account of what’s what.
The MY06/MY07 JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) STi has several improvements over the UK/Euro version including:
• JDM is 2.0ltr UK/Europe is 2.5ltr
• Twin scroll turbo
• Nitride coated, cross drilled crank
• 13:1 STi quick rack
• Slightly larger intercooler design
• Auto and manual intercooler spray (UK get manual activation only)
• More aggressive inlet cams
• Equal length headers
• Electric folding wing mirrors
• 235 width tyres (UK get 225)
• 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th same as UK, 5th and 6th are shorter
• Front STi titanium strut brace
• 8,000rpm redline
Spec C
The MY06 Spec C is approx 90Kg lighter than the standard STi due to the following changes:
• Rear wash wipe **deleted**
• Privacy glass **deleted**
• Deadlocks **deleted**
• Boot trim and carpet **deleted**
• Passenger sun visor **deleted**
• Grab handles **deleted**
• Ski hatch **deleted**
• Glove box light **deleted**
• Isofix child seat fixing point **deleted**
• Underseal **deleted**
• Sound deadening **deleted**
• Map lights **deleted**
• Speakers in rear doors **deleted**
• Centre diagonal inertia seatbelt **deleted**
• Side airbags **deleted**
• HID headlights **deleted**
However, the Spec C has the following changes over and above even the JDM STi:
• Thinner lightweight glass
• Lightweight roof
• Aluminium boot lid
• 12 litre intercooler spray bottle mounted behind the rear seats
• Different radiator and water pump
• Engine & transmission oil coolers
• Roller bearing version of the twin scroll turbo
• Rear strut brace
• Lightweight front subframe
• Performance revolving chamber fuel pump (anti surge)
• Black seats, door panels and carpet
• Stiffer chassis with revised welding
• Larger intake pipe
• Roof vent
• Smaller 50 litre fuel tank
• Smaller lightweight battery
Litchfield Type 20
The Spec C can then be modified by Litchfield Imports to become a Type 20. Apparently they did between 16-20 of these.
• 3" Miltek exhaust system with sports cat
• Ecutek ECU remap
• 3 port boost control solenoid
• K & N panel air filter
• Type 20/25 AST 12 way adjustable coilover suspension
• Type 20/25 handling pack
• STi front lip spoiler with optional lower rubber skirt
• Type 20 floor mats
• Type 20 badges
• 360bhp/350ft lb torque
In addition to the above spec, this car also benefits from some sensible upgrades and mods.
• Prodrive GC05F 8 x 18” forged alloy wheels in unmarked condition. Very strong, very light and easy to clean. These are manufactured by Rays for Prodrive complete with Subaru locking wheel nuts
• Dunlop SP Sport 600 245/40-18 tyres. 1200 miles from new (These are classed as an extreme summer performance tyre as per the original Bridgestone RE070 tyres)
• Performance Friction front brake discs and rotors. Performance Friction front and rear pads
• Goodridge brake hoses fitted front and rear with Motul fluid
• Defi BF in amber gauges, comprising of oil temperature, oil pressure and turbo boost. High quality pod, colour matched and sprayed at bodyshop to match dash colour
• PSI3 ECU Data Monitor
• Alpine digital receiver with iPod and USB connection, Alpine Bluetooth telephone unit with separate microphone and music streaming
• Alpine upgraded door speakers (standard size original replacements)
• New Type 20 floor mats, with correct updated logo
• Genuine STi aluminium door sill protectors
• Momo alloy/leather gear ****
• RCM cool panel guide for radiator
• RCM alloy oil filler cap
• STi radiator cap
• Cobra Cat 1 alarm
• RAC Trackstar
• Original unmarked gold STi alloy wheels with 235/45-17Bridgestone RE070. (Down on tread but still legal I believe)
Private plate not included.
Price £17,495
