These arrived today, a bit sad......maybe ???
 
Well the wife thinks I'm sad for buying them but I really don't care. If she knew about half the stuff I buy for my car I'd be single by now :D (hopefully she'll find out soon as I've had about as much of her cooking as I can take :lol1:)


As I own a STI V2 RA Vlimited I thought these would be a lovely addition. The brochures are originals from August 95 when the V2 cars were released and the Vlimited one is quite hard to come by i believe.

Managed to find a chap in Japan who had them. They weren't cheap but think they were worth it.

just tell her its an investment and in years to come they can be sold for thousands of pounds. Works with my wife every time ;)

I can tell you something, if I went to buy a car and the owner had these to show me or possibly threw them in with the sale I would sleep a bit better that night.

Cool reading isn't a crime tell her
Bad cooking is

Fluent in Japanese...talented chap!!

Sad? Nothing wrong with enjoying your passion. That's what I call being an enthusiast and, for me, that's the opposite to sad :)

Nice brochures btw :notworthy I miss those days...

That's a nice collection there Dean.
The chap I got mine from has many more, I'd like to buy the rest from him but think I better focus my bank account on the actual car first....:lol1:
