After thinking about a P1, or an STi7, or an EVO 6, or 7, i've decided to import an STi V6 Type RA V-Limited, the company i'm doing it with are going to start looking for a mint one with less than 20k mileage, and then they are going to take care of everything that goes with importing the car.....this has probably been done before, but i'll post updates and hopefully pictures and stuff on when the car is found, when it's on the boat e.t.c up till when I pick it up.....

I posted because I hope some of you enthusiasts out there find my 'journey' interesting....

Crispin,
I'm sure some of the enthusiasts will find your journey interesting just like they did mine. See WHAT HAVE I BOUGHT 2. Boy you're in for a fun ride, which only gets better when you finally get your car. I've got my ideal car, look forward to seeing yours.

Hope everything goes well.

I have V6 AWE sitting on a retention form. I'm about to advertise it through the agencies for £1200 (want £800). Everything is negotiable if you want it for your dream car though - I don't need it any more.

Thanks for the offer Flat 4x4,

But I always said that even if I could get my 'real' dream car (F50) that even then I would never have a personal plate.....they're not for me unfortunately.....

Cheers for the thought though

you wont get any Gip from people on here chris as your actually telling us the facts, rather than acting like a secret agent who has something so special it's going to cause an international scene to divulge information. LOL

Great choice of car!

It's all down to you and Scott J Davies cars really John, inspired me to read up about the car, and stopped the months of 'next car' indecision in an instant

Oh and BTW - you are all more than welcome to see my proof of purchase e.t.c e.t.c when I get it

Look forward to a V - Limited track day in the not too distant.....

RAs are THE car to have forget the P1, STI 7 and sports. Get a limited one though with the toys, I would hate having to wind my windows up have enough of that in the fiesta .

Question

How can Hawkeye's car have been the car of his dreams?

He didn't even know what it was when he ordered it!

It'll be worth the wait, all the guys at work wanted to know when mine was coming. Late!, but that's the South China sea for you.
