GB270 Wagon #001
Few pictures of my new to me GB270 that i bought today from Matt @
www.offyourmarks.com ....thanks Matt!
It was originally owned from new by Steve Perryman who is also on SN (or was?).
Its in great (A1) condition as you'd expect having been owned by a pro detailer (think its got a few layers of Zymol Royale on it?), barely a stone chip on the car and only 12500 on the clock plus its #001 and has the upgraded leather/alcantara interior as well as a few other little extras.
Its quick enough for me currently but do these have 2 CATS? Would a decat and a sports CAT keep it legal emissions wise, i'd obviously get it mapped for more power and i guess to stop the CEL light?
Anyway a few pics.

Lovely ! I thought that was stripped and lined with dynamat and lots of ICE ?
Best of the GB270's by a mile.

Yes, that is Simon's old car. Very nice.
Here's the diary that Simon had created:

IMHO it looks cleaner without the front splitter.
I guess the dynamat is all there and just the ICE has been removed.

I believe both the GB270 saloons and wagons were PPP'd WRX bases?
Lovely looking car though

This is now for sale.
Nothing at all wrong with the car, its 100% reliable and in great condition, the fault is with the owner!
