One of One. An Evo VII RS developed by Xtreme to an unprecedented level. Incredible spec and incredibly special. The Evo VII SC was based on an Evo VII RS and suitable for road use as well as competition. Demonstrated extensively, used as a press car and the cover car for the Xtreme website. By 2005 at 2,834 miles it was sold from their showroom in 2005 to a private buyer who spent a further £30,000 on the car. Full Service history and details of the massive build-spec on our website. This is a unique motor car and part of the history of the Evo, Ralliart, Xtreme Dudley.
In the days before Mitsubishi officially imported their Lancer Evolution models (Evos), Ralliart UK (often known as Extreme Dudley) were the original importers of Evos into the UK. During this period, they built a number of ‘specials’ including the Evo VI Extreme, RS Sprint and 450, VII Extreme S and RS Sprint and, although sold in small numbers, most importantly they were official UK cars. Ralliart Extreme were power players in Evo history, and were the company to go to for enthusiasts, due to their 3-year warranty and top of their game sales team and technicians. Based on this success, they decided to build a further car to be used as a demonstrator before ultimately being sold.
Entitled the Evo VII SC, it was to be based. on an Evo VII RS and be suitable. for road use as well as competition. Toney. Cox, the workshop manager responsible for car build and testing for the Ralliart world rally team (WRC), was entrusted with the build and the car was finished in 2003. The SC was demonstrated extensively, used as a press car, was the cover car for the Xtreme website and featured in all the company's advertising.
A period advert from 2004 read. " Based on the lightweight close-ratio gearbox Evolution VII RS model fitted with ACD, LSD Rear and Helical Front Diffs, our Xtreme SC is the most powerful car we have built to date, yet engineered to provide the customer with an opportunity to further tune and modify to take the power from 458bhp to over 500bhp if required!
As with all of our tuning packages, torque has been a major focus too, the Xtreme SC is therefore pushing out a back thumping 410ft/lbs to ensure astonishing pull throughout the rev range. 4 cylinder, turbocharged 2.2-litres, 458bhp @ 5,800rpm, 410ft/lbs @ 3,500rpm, 0-60 in 3.5secs." In the event, only one SC was ever built, the car we are pleased to offer today.

Xtreme 4 Point Harness. SSR Type C 18" Rims. By 2005, the car had covered 2,834 miles and it was sold from their showroom in 2005 to a private buyer. You might think that with a highly developed spec as above, the new buyer would be happy to leave well alone, but no. He requested. XTreme to make alterations at a cost of some £30,000. (£22,637 in parts). This work included a full welded-in cage, Veilside body kit, full respray inside and out, Carbon door cards, Recaro bucket seats, Proflex Jumbo 4 coil-overs and TD Visage 18" alloys. JXA was serviced by Xtreme at 5,905 miles, then sold to its next owner in 2008.
It was serviced again by Xtreme at 6,410 miles then dry stored between 2009 and 2011. Documents in the history file show that the car was transferred to this owner’s business partner, then dry stored until February 2020. Our vendor purchased JXA at this point with an indicated mileage of c7,500 and immediately gave it a major service with all belts and fluids and a thorough check over. After some consideration, he decided to return it to its exact 2003 build-spec and. commissioned Chris at C1-R, one of the original mechanics who built the car from new. It has been re-mapped, the body-kit removed and superbly painted.
A considerable amount of time and money was then spent recommissioning JXA correctly back to its original glory. There is a small plaque in front of the gear lever which says. "Extreme UK Evolution VIII SC Special Built for Mark Thomas 1 of 1" . From our vendor "The plaque is correct however the Evo VIII part is due to the Veilside body kit that was fitted when the first owner purchased from Xtreme. This was part of the 30k additional bill paid to Xtreme when he purchased the car. The original car never had a plaque fitted but I left it there as advised by one of the engineers who worked on the car back in 2003".
In addition to all the usual documents, manuals, invoices etc. in the car's history file, there is a recent valuation from Evo expert and Director of C1R, Chris Timmins who values the car in excess of £55,000, and with the recent surge in values of these special cars, that seems a touch conservative. This is a unique motor car and part of the history of the Evo, Ralliart, Xtreme Dudley and a bunch of talented people who were part of an intoxicating decade or two when ten generations of mundane Japanese saloons were transformed into ballistic rally, and subsequently, road cars.
Presented as it would have been when Xtreme were proudly showing off their 'new baby', JXA is ready for inspection and will not disappoint.
