Hi Guys.

i own the old silver 2door development car that Prodrive had 2 off. 

Its a Uk registered 2 door gc8 with a 2.2 engine. In silver.

1999 when we were playing with the 22b, STI must have assigned a couple of these (off production line) to play with.

one of which was dismantled. And the other was used as a pool car.

just wanted to put this out there as a new topic.

Very cool - nice piece of history

That's certainly unusual and interesting!

Is it stamped on the VIN plate as a prototype, or was it built with a normal type-R Chassis number / Applied Model number and modified later? If so, I'm guessing the VIN plate still shows an EJ20 engine number?
