Cracking bug back and in the day that one. That was long before there were loads of big power cars.

Yup, when most of us were chasing 400, Higgy was already running 500!

Mind you he wasn't right in the head.

Whats he up to nowadays?

I wish people would stop post threads like this I really need to resist!

My plan is get to the back end of this year without a Subaru (12 months without one) and hen look for something that can be easily be made track friendly (remain a road car) that has had the majority of the work done..... I guess this is almost there then! The mrs is going to kill me!

Can anyone vouch for the current condition, or the current owner?

Rob

Nope, afraid not. I knew the guy that built the car a few years ago but haven't seen him or the car since. from memory there wasn't anything cheap about the build either.

I would actually say £8,500 is a pretty good deal for this.

Steve Whitson did the majority of the work and the build (as he built my engine) So I know it hasn't been put together by Charley the Chimp.

I'm confused by this thread. So who know owns the car? If bought by someone today why us the advert still live? Has it been bought to sell on or break for parts?

Right I understand.

So is the price firm or is there an element of negotiation. To be honest the timing is all wrong for me at the moment but it looks nice a well sorted car, but may/does need some tlc here and there? More pics would help please
