Rare 2005 1.6 RX very very low milage
Very rare 2005 1.6 Impreza RX AWD, possibly the only one in the country.
Originally owned by Subaru UK then sold to lady owner (my mum) who's now decided to sell.
Full Subaru service history
Recent new tyres and Battery.
Needs Tax (currently registered as disabled, but a V70 will change this)
MOT December
Front/rear fogs
A/C
Electric windows all round
Central locking with alarm
Heated mirrors
Alloys
Lovely car, hardly run in at 7500 miles with everything still very clean and tight. Garaged mostly and hardly used in last 3 years.
£3,000 - make me an offer..
email me at maxsec at gmail dot com (you get the idea) for more info

guide prices are shoiwng £7k for a 2ltre on same milage, given rarity of the 1.6 4x4 seems to be a fair comparison on price.
Open to offers, nice car

you are just missing the small point of nobody actually willing to purchase the non-turbo car. classics - yes, but newages, you can throw them at people and people rarely purchase them.
a 1.6 liter engine is no advantage either at certain situations i would call it a dis-advantage.
a 2.0 non turbo sport, with the wrx interior (which yours does not have) can be purchased for a grand with a low-ish mileage.
i am sure you get the drift, good luck from me as well.

2k sounds fair, you can push your luck and try 3k, but i highly doubt it. the boyracers will look at the 2.0 sport, and grandmas will not look at it because of the boyracer "prestige" this car, unfortunately has.

I am not sure if the OP is misguided or deluded, I suspect the former. A car like this will never make anywhere near what it owes the seller. Rare or not, this is a hugely undesirable car to the majority of the car buying public and will only be considered by few. For that reason you're unlikely to get very much for it.
Unlike Ford and many other manufacturers, Subaru never promoted the turbocharged derivatives as halo models to the poverty spec models but instead aimed them at wildly contrasting markets.
Someone will inherit a very well maintained car for an absolute bargain price when it is sold.

I'm not sure the word rare is in the right context here tbh, rare normally means a limited run etc
Sometimes when people use rare to describe there car they mean undesirable when sold new.
It does look in good condition and I'm sure to the right person they will pay around £2-£2.5k
