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

You are right there Glenn.
In short Peter long story with a horrible end I think that just about sums it up for me.
The black S202 was great but it was a pig to keep clean.

You'll have to take it from my dead hands first. 
Never mind Geraint, you can view the spoiler from behind as you bask in all it's carbon fibre goodness.
Seriously though I know what you are on about, but the wheels are about the lightest you can buy along with the carbon fibre spoiler plus loads of other weight saving measures it makes for a brilliant car.
Plus of course all the STi handling goodies that come as standard on the car, they really handle well and are about as a road going car can get.
Have a read of the EVO magazine review of the S202 on the link below, for some reason EVO had removed it from their site.

I haven't got a clue Rich, some kind of toll payment system perhaps?

It won't be here in time for Rallyday so I would imagine that spring PCAD will be it's first outing.
I thought there was one over here unless it got exported back out of the country, thanks for the kind words I can't wait to see it in person for myself.

Unfortunately not Tubbs, I would love to have the car there but it just isn't going to be hear in time and besides before the car starts being used I want to get all those niggles and jobs out of the way plus a full major service as well.
I am in no rush to get the car on the road once it arrives, after all the weather will have taken a turn for the worst and it will see very little use if any over the winter months.

I had an update from Tom @ Brave Auto UK to say that the car will be leaving Japan on the 26th of August and expected to arrive in the UK on the 10th of October.
So it's looking likely to be on the road towards the end of October, she then goes for a full service and other jobs to Ryan.
After that it will be mapped but not too sure who I'll be using for that yet.

Moaning you say? I call it constructive criticism, now back to the brown turd or you'll never get it finished.
