Bought car new from John Cleland. Sold it to a mate at 150k. Couldn't bear to be without, so bought it back at 170k. No mods, though synchro went on 3rd gear at 190k - otherwise, original.

Known locally as the red infuriator!

Bought mine back in Feb this year. It's my second "R" as I had one of the original yellow T5-R's some years ago (with the AP big brakes already fitted).
