Hi everyone,

A good freind of mine currently owns one of the three prototype 22B's previously owned by My Grist and due to unforseen circumstances he is having to sell the car. This is of course a very tough decision for him to make but this is how it is.
So, as Subaru members/owners I'm sure you all know of the prototype 22B's that were produced. Colin had S447 YOX, Nicky had S446 YOX and the other I think went to David Lapworth(press car) S445 YOX. Colin's is currently owned by Noble & son and David's is owned by Subaru in Italy and the other is the one that is for sale, S446 YOX.

So, the car only comes out a couple of times a year to keep the mileage low, which is currently approx. 24km. The car was last in the UK mainland for the McRae Gathering a few years back and can be seen in the pictures below.

Obviously this car will have a larger pricetag than normal but for any serious enquiries please contact me on justin@seriesmcrae.com and I will contact the seller to give him your details to discuss details further.

** Serious enquiries only please - Price POA **

Was there something about one of them cars and an engine replacement. Stand corrected on that
 
A piece of motoring history here. Id like this next to my P1. Best of luck with the sale. I cant see it staying in Ireland though.

Hi, yes this car has got a different engine in it. Nicky sent the car to Autosportif and they worked their majic on it. I recently spoke to the guy who built the engine and he told me that the car had 'all the bells and whistles' that were available at the time. It's basically a Group A set up but running more than the 300bhp that was allowed at the time.
I have driven the car myself and it is just an animal, Nicky Grist also used those words when I spoke to him earlier in the year. He also said that he would love to see the car again and maybe take it for a spin.
If I had the money the car would be with me here in N Wales! It is simply stunning.
