Wide Type R
 

On an initial look this strikes you as a cracking car :

But reading the spec again and having a closer look at the pictures....who's he kidding. Did he view it in the dark and decide to sell once he saw it in daylight.

400 hours in the bodyshop !!!
Wings don't match doors
Boot doesn't match rear wings
Bottom of bumper/front splitter doesn't match bumper
Bonnet doesn't align with wing or grill

Shame as it would be one hell of a car if just a little extra attention to detail had been made...,,,,

Yep saw this. Kit fitting of this kind has to be done by real specialists, otherwise it looks like a dogs dinner

Mark has had more Scoobs than ive had baths haha think he is in the 80+ region

It does look nice

If you sqwint it's ok lol

I bet the colour matches... If you look at Adrian's 22b at different angles the colour looks like it doesn't match, but it's still factory paint

Look at the add on 22b... The colour is all matching ;)

thats sweet :doubleup:

That's very nice:agreed:

Look at his new toy on SN... He has a 22b aswell

I like it, but i also agree with Scott - some parts just look wrong. The front bumper area especially, it really needs a wide bumper/splitter too as the front sides of the tyres look like their exposed to much in the pics.

nice motor !

Was looking at this, and Bigfud puts me to shame with the amount of cars he gets through.

I think I done a deal with him on my White Evo7 for his cheap black classic at the time.

There is also a nice white wide bodied one up for sale with a forged 2.5 ltr. for £8995. If that one had had a 6 speed in it, I would have been very tempted.

BigFuds does look mint though, and from I have seen he only get nice examples. The 450bhp blob he had previous to this was nice and tempting as well.

I agree that some of the finer details don't quite tie up and there are certainly a few things I would tweak with it - plus the colour isn't my first choice for a wide arch classic - but I still think it looks good.

As has been said, given the number of Scoobs Fud has had I would think its a good 'un!

It's far from a dogs dinner, but there are things I'd alter, and it's not worth £8.5k imo

agreed, and thats what owning scoobs and the like is about. we all either want to make them our own in some way with some form of modification, or we keep them as true to the original manufacturers spec/condition as possible.

I dont think the car looks too bad TBH, although I wouldnt pay that much for it !

He already has a que to buy... His replacement is a porker 998 tt

I gotta be honest and say if a good Wide bodied scoob turned up for the right price and spec I would be tempted to trade the Hawk.

I wouldn't want a 22B though as I would want to play with it rather then keep it standard.
I wouldn't even want a Blue wide bodied type as as it would just look like a 22B wann-be.

I did like the white type R, ally arched, seam welded, STi V that RCM had for sale many years ago, we all know what happened to that.......

Are you missing the classic Scott?

that's a very nice looking car but the front o/s wing doesn't look like its sitting right in the door/windscreen area!?

If this was a few K cheaper I would have this one

Looks very hard, without being OTT. And performance and attention to detail to match......

Thats stunning :10:

But price is high!

Nah!!!! don't like those arches. OK on a Mini but not a Scoob (sorry JGM).

All down to personal taste mate :nod:

Seen them on Mags' car and they look cool too. That style of arch would look shocking on a newage, but i think it looks really moody on an aggressively styled classic like that.

hes dropped the price on that one :norty:


ian

I think it looks pretty sweet , but agreed bonnet to grill does look gash.
Plus i think the wheels would look better in gloss black.

Was looking at that one last night. Again, some minor things I'd change, but overall I rather like it! :doubleup:

(Agree that I think its a lot of money though)

Yeah, I can't see it working on a newage, but then I used to say the same thing about them on a classic until I saw this car...

...and my opinion was instantly changed!

Did anyone happen to see the white Type R in last months Total Impreza? That was a pretty much perfect Type R in my opinion (apart from not being blue that is! ;)).

Yep, that ones a monster mate :nod:

Noticed you had posted on the thread ;) - Last price seems to be 13.5K. If the price ever got close to 10K I think I would be knocking on his door.

I keep looking as I'm in the market right now for a new toy, but currently giving serious considering to a self build project and doing a low pressure Greddy turbo'd S2000. 300rwhp.

no comment :whistle:

Thats porn :tissue:.:10:.

newage with arches

Dosent look too bad just needs abit of finishing off

Believe me the one big fud was selling (sold now) is the minted paintwork wise you are likely to see, its just the camera angle and angles of the panels.

that looked brilliant to me

Love the look of classics with the arches on. On one of Skullfudges pics of P2 he has the screw holes filled in & that looked even better. :EVO:
