Built by the factory for Toshi Arai Motorsport in 2004. Used as his 3rd car.

2009 Queensland Rally Championship winning car

Top Run comprehensive steel cage.

Engine rebuilt 3 events ago with new block and STi forged pistons (350 km competitive). Variable valve timing.

PBMS Fibreglass light pods with genuine Hella Predator HID Lights

Carbon door trims with aluminium honeycomb side impact protection

Flocked dash

Sabelt Taurus driver's seat w/ head restraint wings (FIA compliant), Recaro co-driver's seat (FIA compliant)

6-point FIA harnesses (12 months old)

This is a meticulously prepared car that would be outright competitive in any state-level rallying, and top 5 ARC capable. The car is very strong and reliable; we've had one mechanical DNF in 2.5 years (15 events).

The car is currently in PRC trim with 34mm restrictor but it would be an easy change to return to Group N for International events like 2011 Rally Australia.

$46,000 negotiable.

If it doesn't come with a CD player, I'll have to give it a miss...

[pixelboy]

Does it have mounts for a child seat in the back?

I might have to give it a miss also

No child seat, no. But it does have a net which will cradle your baby in maximum comfort.

Until you hit a jump...

I'm being what we call at work.. a 'WOFTer'. Basically applied to anyone who comes into the store and asks a bunch of questions with no intention of purchasing. I'll let you work out the acronym.

But just out of interest, what price range does a rally car go for?

[Bauer]

if the dash is flocked, imagine what the rest of it is going to be like

how much rego?

But just out of interest, what price range does a rally car go for?

I will put a guess that it is more than I paid for the Tarago - but not by too much

[VTRacing]

But just out of interest, what price range does a rally car go for?

From $2000 (cheap Excel or old shitter) to $200,000+ (top of the line brand new Group N EvoRex).

Top Evo 9s or MY06-08 STi (3-5 years old) are about $75-$90k. Evo 7s and 8s, and 03 to 05 STi are about $40-$50K. Evo 6s and below anywhere from $25K to $45K.

Though a good genuine MkII BDA Escort will still command $100k plus. One with a documented history (i.e driven by Roger Clark or Ari Vatanen) might be $200k+.

Cheers for that VT, however I was more wondering what your going to be asking for yours.

I thought I'd included it in the ad, but obviously I hadn't.

Can I test drive it? This weekend?
Our 76 Crown Estate Wagon needs a new head gasket, maybe I could convince the wife? It's pretty muddy in Mudgee, does it handle in the mud?

Oh, one last thing, does it come with Air-con?

If no, might have to give it a miss. . .

[VTRacing]

Oh, one last thing, does it come with Air-con?

It's even better, it has ducted air.

Roof-vents are cool.

And it handles mud just fine.

[pab]

Does it have a pop top that allows it to sleep four?

If not I might have to give it a miss.

I'm selling my car and I've already had two people email me with identical paypal scam things like that. I emailed back to one of them to see how they score the cash and they want $1000 western union transaction for the pickup agent - which they will refund of, course. This person even offered me $2k over what i've got the car up for!

[c.j]

It'll go, would love the drive train out of it for mine.

Good luck with the sale Matt

[w00dsy]

can it fit a roll of carpet in the back? If not i might have to give it a miss.

[VTRacing]

You're about four days late for the party with that joke, w00dsy.

[w00dsy]

i would of been in here sooner, but i was out pollishing my fog lites

I don't take the bait when it's deliberate.

[Rots]

I see it has fog lite covers. If I take off the covers will the fog lites work? If not I might have to give it a miss.
