i can only dream!!

good luck wiht the sale.

ScoobLou 30 October 2009 09:23 PM

Why only 3 months warranty though? Are the 22bs prone to problems??

specialx 31 October 2009 10:53 AM

22b's are not anymore prone to problems than other impreza's

3 months is more than enough time for any problems to show up, we by law only have to warrant a sale for 30 days But at scoobyclinic we offer a 3 month unconditional warranty from ourselves that covers EVERYTHING! We see a lot of aftermarket warranties that are not worth the paper they are printed on.

So you can buy with confidence, are you interested?

Im guessing Orange not clear? lovely car by the way :thumb:

blu scoob 02 November 2009 07:59 AM

Yes orange but that doesn't really matter its the other bits that its had under the bonnet.it needs putting back to as it should be in my opinion because these are rarer than a normal 22B, and if you are going to keep it as a collectors car I think it should be standard to keep its worth:thumb:

i kinda agree and disagree, while perhaps keeping it a standard car due to its pedegree, i think the removal of them is an improvement over standard. So i think it depends how anoraky you want to be lol

I've know this car for about 5 years now, mate used to own it and its had no expense spared on it.

blu scoob 02 November 2009 08:53 AM

I supose if you have all the bits to go back on it when you finish with it and you are going to use it,then have the mods and then put it back to standard when you are selling up,because at the end of the day if you are buying it for your own pleasure,so I do agree with you just a little bit:Dlol1::thumb:

scoobynutta555 02 November 2009 02:47 PM

My old car ;). Only owned it for several months but loved it. Looks like a few things have changed since I sold it. Glad to see the mud flaps are off. Is there still a fire extinguisher in the boot?

As regarding the value, I sold this car a few years ago for £24k, exactly what I paid for it. So future value, I'd expect it to stay of the same value.

Engine wise, the engines do go like a lot of classics and a rebuild would cost circa 4k, I do believe the owner after me had to have it rebuilt.

HT04 02 November 2009 03:13 PM

this would be an ideal candidate for a ''nut and bolt resto'' in my mind. get it ABSOLUTELY factory fresh and concours. thats what id like to do. if i had the money of course. :cry: .

dan

scoobynutta555 02 November 2009 09:51 PM

Well, as I've already posted, I sold this car several years ago for £24k. Don't see much profit in it if I'd have kept it for 4 more years. In that time it's had IIRC £6k spent on it on a rebuild.

BIG FUD 03 November 2009 02:52 PM

Well if i get the call it will be in my garage ...

MMT WRX 03 November 2009 10:57 PM

A friend of mine has just sold this car to SC. Ive been in it a few times and its a realy nice car. I reckon hes just spent quite a wedge upgrading it wth new turbo, ecu etc. Adam would be able to advise exactly what. I was shocked when he rang me and told me he was selling as it was his PJ and was looked after money no object.

ALi-B 04 November 2009 11:13 AM

Guys, unless you have any questions or direct interests in the car, please refrain from posting any negative opinions.

SN's Sales rules also applies to the Trade sections as well (as found in my signature), so please extend this common courtesy when replying to this thread.

I owned this car back in 2004 and bought it from Crossroads Garage....the 22B No. plate only cost me 300 quid if i remember correctly....filling up a tank was only £50 also!

Amazing machine & still miss driving it to this day - if youre in the market for a 22B, do it as they are without doubt the best thing to roll out of the factory....over 10 yrs on and we've never seen anything like this since.
Wonder if there will ever be another hand build Subaru again like this one.

Good luck with the sale and hope it goes to a happy home ;-)

rofl it seems that many people had owned this car previously!!

why each one sold this car then if it is so rare and well taken care of? I don't understand this.
If I had a 22B, I would never sell it.

2yrs old - LOL, someone pointed me towards the link as it was my old car.

I must be living in a timewarp......OMG!

To answer the other point, I think its one of those cars you've just got to own and it would be nice to keep all the cars i've owned but sometimes you get an offer you cant refuse and it must go.
It was my daily driver and to be fair to the 22B its not that type of car & after 12 months driving only cost me £500 - unheard of these days!

If i could find a cheap one to bring back to top spec i would happily keep one....maybe you dont know what youve got until its gone...
