Default Unmolested Type R V 5 or 6

Looking at buying a Type R some time soon but I really want one that hasn't been modified too much or at all.

Not too keen on a white or silver one but may consider if the car is good.

Based in Sheffield and will travel around 50 miles to view.

If you have one let me know.

Cheers,

Wayne.

Really the only paint my type r has had is the front bumper, bought from sva and I was told this before I travelled the 4.5hr journey to look at it. Very open and quite easy to deal with tbh. You can't really expect a 12/14 year old car not to have paint really, I've seen brand new cars delivered to franchised dealers needing paintwork lol. Tbh everybody has there own experiences but I was very happy with the service I've received from them and extremely happy with the car and would buy from them again.

Totally agree mate. I'm not expecting a perfect example and a bit of paint and dent removal does not bother me as that's my trade. I want a car for a long term investment and I will probably spend more time cleaning and restoring to orginal condition than driving it.

Can you pm me with what sort of money you paid for yours? Also, a web link or phone number

No, they made them in '99 too, but STi Type R Version production was limited by date (June 3rd) so they had no plaque. I very nearly bought one before i got the 22B back in '05....

Nice cars, and if it was a bit closer i'd be taking a look myself
