Yesterday i went out for a drive down my new favorite road, which runs from Newton Mearns to Stewarton, i just got myself an Eunos Roadster with an HKS turbo kit so i'm finding any excuse to drive it . On my way back i believe i saw an FD2 Mugen RR, reg plate MUG3N, after checking on the plate on the MOT database i believe it is genuine.

Which got me thinking, here is a car that was built to be driven quickly, then it was tuned and further developed to be driven even quicker, but it is a limited run car which is worth a lot and is only going up in value.

The car in question has been driven less than 1000 miles from new, but i feel it is almost a waste of this car being driven so little.

I can understand both sides of the argument, but i honestly think if i had this car it would have some serious miles on it. So Kudos for having restraint but i really hope the miles on it have been hard and well enjoyed.

The really are special cars. I was at a track day at the Bedford Autodrome a couple of years ago and a red RR turned up after the lunch break, did a handful of laps and then vanished!

Maybe the drivers are as much an enigma as the cars themselves.

If a couple could be 12, within the mists of time, this EVO article might explain the appearance/disappearance...

lol. Thanks for the article but no, my sighting was summer 2018. I'm sure there is more than one in the UK now too as Torque GT has imported one or two.
