davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Well my redundancy cash arrived this morning..... So i've been on the phone to Ian Litchfield and bought this (well i will have once i've been to the bank and transferred the cash) http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/stocklist.asp?inc=332 Just need to sort out getting it shipped up to Aberdeen now...
warrior08 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 You are one lucky person! That looks mint, I bet you can't wait to get it now!
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Just a bit..... Apparently Litchfields are working on a car for Bob Rawl and he took that one while his is being worked. Hopefully i'll have it by this time next week..

scouk Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Nice! Love the way it 'looks' standard, when clearly that's only skin deep
weedman Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Just wait a mo while I wipe the drool off my keyboard! Stunning. And if you want someone to drive her up...
scooby222 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 awesome!!! as weedman said, if you need a courier.... hope youl bring it along to the fling next year - on the other hand hope youve got a new job sorted out mate
scouk Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 awesome!!! as weedman said, if you need a courier.... Hahaa! was wondering how long it would take for you to sniff this thread out
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Got a company who'll trailer it up here for about £400. If you take into account train tickets/flights, hotel and fuel costs it makes sense to get it delivered. Could have used the SIDC courier service and have guys drive it through their area and hand it over to someone else..... Or not. It should be at the fling (work permitting) and the good old blob should be there after a respray to tidy her up the wench seems to have taken a shine to it seems to be claiming it! She can sort out the MOT and service it's due in the new year then! I'm having a bit of time off, after 23 years in the MOB i'm chilling out for a while. The job search will begin after the new year and finding a job for an engineer in Aberdeen really won't be hard. It'll be handy on the weekly run from Aberdeen to Elgin each friday to pick the boy up from the ex-wife for his weekend of freedom before i take him back on the sunday... Wonder how long the journey will take in that?
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 I was looking at RB320's or a nice standard STI to tune up myself but in the end i think this is the best option. All it might need is some coilovers but the engine is sorted and has only done about 1k since it was taken up to 400bhp.
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Cheers, it'll be tearing up Westhill soon. Still learning my way round Aberdeen though!
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 haha who can tell.... i think it's maxxed out at 400bhp on the std airbox and top mount! I think It'll be a little bit quiker than my bug WRX though. Small diesel thing need for the commute to work as i think it may be a bit thirsty round town..
davey l wrx Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Damn.... already started buying stuff for it... Zun Sport lower mesh grill ordered! This could be a slippery slope
StrikE Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Oh now that's a nice wee motor, should bring a smile or two
davey l wrx Posted November 10, 2011 Author Posted November 10, 2011 It looks good to me. Hopefully it'll back at Litchfields today/tomorrow and i't'll be on a transporter next Tues/Wed and on the way north after it's been serviced....
Peter W Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 (edited) Very nice Davie Maybe see or hear you going through Keith Edited November 10, 2011 by Peter W
