Was at the Autosport show at the NEC on Saturday and a Red 16v Integrale caught my eye on the Piston Heads stand......the reason it stood out was it was the very car I owned back in 1996...I couldn't believe it...if I caught eye of the owner I would have had my cheque book out buying it back.....thats if the other half wasn't there.

When I had the car if was spotless and I was really pleased to see it was still in great condition.



If the owners on here I have added a bit of history of the car below.

I purchased the car from Richard Thorne in 1996. I aked him to look out for one for me and he found an stunning example in Italy I believe. I purchased the car on the foreign plate...HAKN 24 (still have the plates in my garage)...I then took it to the DVLA in Cardiff to get it UK registered which is the plate it's on now. The car never let me down in the year that I had it and the only thing I changed was the gear knob to a alcantara one. The car went back to Richard Thorne after about a year of ownership. He had found a buyer for the car straight away....Great car I hope you are enjoying it.

Yep thats me. Had an E30 M3 EVO11 which Richard took in PX. The car was supurb when I purchased it but when I took it back to Richard he couldn't believe it was actualy in better condition.....I was sad like that.....inside the wheel arches where red and clean as I used to clean them every week...it was def a cracker.

I take it you have now sold the car. After seeing the car on Sat I noticed it in the classified on here.....
