Default New, low mileage bugeye STi Prodrive..

Hi all, spent a week in the company of my new 2002 STi Prodrive, bought from my pal after years of convincing ;-) the car has done a miraculous 13k miles, feels, smells and drives like new, after being in storage for 7 years. No plans for any changes aside possible remap at some point.

Unless your car is modified the M3 driver was obviously not interested.

OK so you are running 350bhp.

Still doesn't mean the M3 driver was interested. Maybe the driver was just cruising home after work.

Thanks for the comments guys, nice to hear there are other low milers around too. I'm absolutely chuffed with this car, exactly what i've been waiting for - wasn't particularly after a Scooby - an offer I couldn't refuse from my friend. Had to do all the usual stuff before it ran, timing belt, oil, fluids, drain fuel etc..then MOT'd and taxed it and drove it home to Cornwall from Birmingham the same day.

Only other mod btw so far has been to wire an mp3 socket into the car - soldered into the output from the cassette head.! :-D looking at possible race dynamix next year maybe for a remap - not sure whether to just have the map or to go with the decats too.
