Car located in Lincoln. £7,700. Offered to SN enthusiast before eBay and Autotrader .


2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STi PPP (301 bhp) in Crystal Grey Metallic.

30,126 Subaru
40,020 Subaru
49,168 (Cambelt) Independent

Yup...the market is certainly on its knees at the moment. in some ways, a cult, niche car like scoobies you might think would be able to ride this storm but i guess from people's comments, maybe not.

i had my car up for sale a few months back and had loads of responses to it from SN, ebay, autotrader etc...no viewings however. decided i liked the car too much so took it off sale. guessing nothing has changed in those intervening months in the car market.

as some have said before, a good car will sell...let's see hey!

Honestly, price wise I really think you're just a tad too low if anything.

8k regardless of what others say the market is doing etc is a remarkable price for a car such as this.
So what if there are cars struggling to sell - the fact is that if I am sat here (having just bought one 9 months ago) thinking that I would have bit your hand off at that price and giving serious thought to a short term loan to buy it, then there must be others too.

Some one will get a very very tidy car here at a very very tidy price IMO.

Good luck with the sale

i thought the price was about right as i know that there will be a little bit of haggling built in. i really think that for the performance for £ its a good deal. although i have had a pm from another user saying he was looking at a similar car with less miles for 7k! i can only imagine there was something not quite right with that.

i will just take my time with it and not get too hung up on how long it takes to sell. i shall give it a couple of weeks and then start advertising elsewhere. as it is i am not using it to keep the miles down, which is the reason its being sold.

thanks for your kind words and sage advice.

Yeah I would guess something may have been not quite so with that other car - I know the economy is some what lacking but I would still have to apply the common wisdom that if something sounds too good....

Finally a break in the weather has allowed me to give the car a wash and polish! Here's a few photos from today's cleaning session. Will be doing the inside tomorrow so I shall add some then.

Thanks, but no. had an SUV last year, didnt see the point with mostly me on my own in it. I am looking for something cheaper to run as I use a car for business mileage...4.6 V8 wouldnt cut it whichever way you look at it . also, has to be a cash sale, so no part exchanges/swaps etc...thanks.

11,519 AUD. just ask questions through the thread and i will do my best to answer you. might not be a good idea putting your mobile number in public like this though. cheers!

Bargain mate if the mileage was around 40 would have taken it.

still less than average if you go for 12k as yearly amount. as it says in the buyers guide in jap perf mag that features my car...go for condition and history over mileage

It's a fantastic price IMO. If I didn't have to be so strict with myself and my budget, I'd have been on the blower a long time ago

Cheers Edd. Certainly has generated some good interest...got it advertised on PH, fleabay, trader etc. Sure it won't hang around too long now.
