I am on the look out for a WRX STI V4/5/6 Type R

I cant seem to find too many about. Where are the best places to find good cars (trade is best as I need to PX my current car)

The places I am looking at are Auto trader / SIDC and Scoobynet.

Any other suggestions (ps: I live in gloucestershire)

Cheers

Martin

Thanks Scooby Si. I need to chop in a 205 gti though so trade is needed. I will check out the import website as I wont actually have the money until end of september.

Oh, I only managed to get authorisation from the misses if I dont get one thats too lairy... I figure, if i get a more subtle colour (dark mica blue etc) then I may be able to get away with the Sti spoiler..... I think Sonic blue + spoiler etc may get me into hot water

they say things taste better when you have to wait ;) Will be worth it thou m8 if i was you i'd still get to the local subaru meets make friends with the natives they maybe able to assist you in many ways also.
Good luck with your hunt the majority will be sonic blue, white & grey from my experiance you could always look for a standard RA they didn't have spoilers at all in theory ;) Hey you could always sell yer misses & get one straight away :D lol but before i get you in too much trouble i'll say tara 4 now ;) lol
