Looking to buy a Very nice low millage V5- V6 Type R in white, what dealers do you guys recomend? Noticed sva has a few price around 7k anyone been to see them? Willing to pay that kind of money for a nice low millage one.

 

SVA imports, DCY, New era imports

You may need to add a few quid to get a minted low mileage one though

 

i looked at sva imports mate before i bought my p1, they seem to have some really nice cars mate and a few people on here have given them good praise. Dont think youll go far wrong with them.

 

I bought mine from SVA in March. So far so good. I have had a few things done to mine since that maybe i should have asked about at the time of buying. But all in in pleased

 

Yeah sva seem to have the best choice out there, If i had a v5 Type R would it need mapping for uk fuel or could i run it safe on v power?

 

Will need a map. You never know what ECU they have when imported. Mine had an Apexi

 

Give API a call. They have a very nice "Blue" Type-R (I think it is a V Limited, not sure though). It has circa 38k miles on the clock. Very nice.

 

Here's the one i got from SVA

nice. how much did you pay? is it a v5 v ltd?

 

Yes it's a V-ltd. Check out SVA' website then you will get an idea of cost.

 

looks nice! what kind of problems did you get with it when you bought it steve?

 

Got mine from sva a few months ago they had quite a few there which im sure they always have your bound to find something

That is immaculate! Quite pricy though - but if your in the market for a nice one.

I wonder who did the engine build and the parts used. If it is a block capable of the magic 600hp...well who knows.

 

Boost not working right. Found the Apexi boost control was off when mapped

Brembo Grand Tursimo brakes - Discs warped - Still got to get new discs from godspped

Dent in boot lid that i didn't see - Now sorted by the clinic

Coilovers clanking and banging - Being sorted now

Gearbox a bit difficult when changing down from 5th to 4th - Not a massive problem and to be sorted - Not a major job.

Genrally pretty good for a 11year old car.

It has got some good mods on it to i.e. Apexi, Bistein coliovers, Zero sport anti rollbars, air intake & intercooler shoroud. Prodrive P1 alloys, equal lengthh headers 3.5" exhaust with sports CAT

They also sorted a lot of things before i picked it up.
