Hi All

I'm Beckie and im new to Subarus. I live in Watton, Norfolk with my other half and our son. We are both a bit mad about cars, lol.

I have been offered a uk 2000 turbo by a friend, it looks like a nice car and is cheap. I am really considering it and have seen that it used to belong to someone on here. Does anyone remember the car? The reg is V53MNK.

Any help would be great.

Thanks on advance
Beckie

If its clean, drives alright and doesn't make any nasty noises then you can't go wrong at that sort of money.
Throw the old,
"well its a stolen recovered car so.....",
and bid him a grand.

Stolen/recovered. Doesn't mean it's cut & shut wreck. Depends what damage was done and what the repairs were like. My classic was TWOC'd and recovered. Aside from some paint work, replacement locks and a wheel, it was fine. I kept it for over 10 years after I got it back with no problems, including 2 trips round Europe and several trackdays.
If you can find the owner from that time, ask them what was done to it on return.
