You car looks to be well looked after, sure your doing the right thing here Tommy?

What ever you do make sure you end up with a good one, theres a mighty fine standard looking Type R for sale up here at the moment for decent money.

as said possibly a swap plus cash as its had a fair bit of money spent on it.
looking for a classic of the same sort of standard.

yes i have thought about the swap a lot, and believe me im very picky on the cars i own.
This one took me 6 months to find as i wanted the bodywork in a1 condition, (check out picture one as we know sunlight is unforgiving on dents and bad paintwork)
I hardly use the car and am after the much more raw feel of a modded classic,
and to be honest i had an idea of how to mod the looks of the blob to make it subtle yet not over the top and appealing to someone else.
which i think achieved and am now looking for a new challenge.

I know what you mean about the classic shape, there is something pedigree about it. P1 would be a great mach to get. Seen a brace of 22b's on Pistonheads this week is you fancy something special!

love a 22b but as we know they are expensive and rare, a p1 is more realistic i think,
but if anyone wants to swap me a 22b please pm....
had a few offers but i dont want to offend people im not after swapping my sti for you £1500 turbo 2000
im after a lightly modded classic, pref jap spec and either sti type r or that sort of version.

yes top one is simple, bottom requires a bit of drilling which is scary but looks great when finished,
looks a bit different to, i had the silver versions first but hated it, made the car look like it had crashed into halfords
