I think it was possibly 1 of 2 yellow S202's to make it to these shores, and the owner smashed it up / wrote it off quite a few years back.
I also know that Dave from ESP actually sold it to the guy who wrote it off, and of course that it was known as the flying banana.
Very nice mate, good to see your staying within the fold.
Though to get the car abit quicker, put the car in a 20ft container and you'll have it over here with 6 weeks. There are weekly sailings from Japan and it'll cost you about $1100 USD for the container port to port. Its what i do.
It'll cost you about another £350/400 to get it from the port to a local warehouse and cleared and its yours. :-)

Yes it is, and with a lot less mileage on it as well.

The heater control panel will either need replacing or at the very least some prep and painting by Ryan, apart from that it's in very good condition from an 11 year old car.

Thanks Ozz, she's in great condition for the year.
Thanks, there are a couple of minor blemishes to be taken care of but nothing that Ryan cannot do.

You will have to wait though to see it in person as it won't even arrive in the UK for at least 6 weeks yet.

Thanks Dean, only a few very minor cosmetic touches required and a full service and brake strip down.

That's lovely and clean Ty!
It's lovely that its a very very limited car, but the spoiler and wheels aren't to my taste, but I suppose that's what makes it in the limited run.
You'll have to bring it up the black mountains for a blast

Didn't take long then
Looks a nice example Ty as does Stu's
Fair play to the welsh lads we got some well decent cars
So that's a S202, S204, type 25 hawk in red, type 20 hawk, plus all the well sorted and cared for cars like pricey's Spec D and Lee's white hawk to name but a few, quite a picture that's gonna make at one of the meets
Look forward to seeing it Ty, never know you may even make the shows next year
