As you are no doubt aware i have been looking for a while for a car to use and abuse for track days etc..I spotted this car a bit ago and knew it was the one for me.I couldn't get to see it as i was going on holiday and it seemed as though it wasn't meant to be as when i returned it had changed hands.
It then reappeared(i am sure you have all spotted it) and i just had to have it.Its absolutely and totally what i was looking for.Its a reasonably tidy and solid clubman rally car.Its been done to a decent standard in the past and reckon its had a fair few quid spent on it.Some might groan at it only having a crossflow fitted,but for me its just perfect.I really couldn't be happier..
