Vehicle Description
UK Tommi Makinen Evo 6-5 in Scotia White for sale. It is what now seems hard to find one of the 250 Official Ralliart UK cars no 37/250 first registered by The Colt Car Company in May of 2001 which I purchased from Marshalls of Cambridge in July 2001. I used the car regularly when I first bought it and it was serviced by Marshalls as per Ralliart the last service by Marshalls being Dec 15th 2005 at 54469 miles. Unfortunately on Christmas eve just 9 days later a piston broke which led to me having the current forged engine built. The car still has its original block so still has the unusual feature of matching engine and chassis numbers!!.
The car was not back on the road until late July 2006 and has not really been used much since which can be seen from the MOT certificates and was not used at all between 30/09/10 and 20/09/14 when it was next taxed until late October of the same year. I have all tax discs and MOTs.
With this car now being 15yrs old and a UK car, which are becoming harder to find one cannot expect it to be rust free as expected with the many imports from Japan.
Whilst yes you will find rust underneath the car which is perfectly normal for a car of this age which in itself is unusual as you don't see many old cars still on the road now and yes you are looking at a 15yr old car which must be considered when viewing!!, I can guarantee whilst yes you will find rust,but only surface rust you will not find any rot as experienced by many who have bought what looks like a ""mint car""only to discover a horror story later. Yes I could spend three weeks stripping, scraping, shot blasting, stone chipping and respraying the underside to look like new only to be questioned many times as to what was/am I trying to hide so I personally feel it better to offer this car in the its genuine condition giving its new owner the opportunity to put his own mark on it. In 2008 I went completely through the car discovering all those hidden, unexpected places road dirt and salt could hide away and slowly eat your pride and joy at its pleasure undiscovered for years eventually giving you the fright of your life.
When the engine was built and put on Autronics it was mapped by Mark Shead.
The car has recently returned from NR Autosport where Nick gave it a service and thorough going over replacing the fuel pump, injectors, boost controller solenoid, set up the boost controller and tweaked the map to his satisfaction at a cost of £1450
The wheels are undamaged although would benefit from being refurbished along with the rear bumper being repainted as it is slightly off white compared with the splitter which has recently been painted. Yes i could of had these done before putting "Edna"up for sale but i feel it more appropriate to offer her to her new owner in her original condition as opposed to "just tarted up to sell"

I still have most of the original parts that have been changed on the car i.e. header tank, power stering fluid tank, many hoses etc and also an original red rocker cover plus much more which will go with the car.
As previously said in the advert the wheels would benefit from being refurbished, along with new floor mats and boot mat which are currently original and if i was keeping the car i would personally replace the gear knob
