Impreza RA For Sale
K reg Impreza Type RA
Very rare model, I've only seen 2 other red ones, most are white. I'm the second owner, I've owned it for approx 5 years. It's only been used at weekends. And never used in winter. Milage is 75000 - All MOT's to prove. I have covered only 17000 miles in 5 years so have decided to sell due to lack of use. Always warmed up and cooled down and serviced every 3000 miles by me (ex Renault mechanic) never been tracked or crashed. This car is my pride and joy and wants for nothing.
Body work is very good for the age of car, has a odd stone chip/ mark but no rust or damage. Was garaged all year round up until a few months ago (new garage being built)
Just fitted a DCCD box with one of spiders DCCD controllers which runs in auto or manual. Made such a difference, car no longer pushes on when coming out of tight bends/roundabouts. The box and controller alone with the diff swap out was 1200 quid.
It's an amazing car to drive, once you go out in it you never want to park it up again, fantasic for B road blasts.
This is the second time I have put it up sale, the first time I just could not do it and backed out of selling but I have made my mind up and it's going this time. I'm going to get something the wife can use, maybe a BMW 330 coupe or Civic Type R.
Spec:
Belts and pulleys fitted by HDC Subaru.
Modified oil pump
Ra engine with closed deck block, under piston oil sprays etc.
440cc injectors with Carl Davey fitting kit.

Proper hand made turbo blanket

Fud I'll take some tomorrow. Dccd is 5 speed, top speed is around 113 mph.
Really really don't want to sell it Stu, I'm still not 100% certain I want to sell it.
