So I was just flicking through eBay tonight......

Knew it! Lol. Good luck with the sale mate. At that price it's an amazing bargain for someone. Far too cheap IMO.

Banny, don't do it!

You'll only get your *** back in another, further down the line (as per your Impreza career to date)...... Ergo, you'll regret it.

Sorry for the slow reply fellas, work got in the way of my daily surfing today. I love the car to bits, she is finally perfect and whether I drive it once a week or once a month it feels epic.

Part of finishing this car was a promise I made to Simon (JGM), so I had to see it through however I feel now is the right time to take a hiatus from car scene as it will be going on 12 years since I've messed with them and time to try something different in life.

No doubt I will be back at some as once they get in your blood you're hooked for life, the car wont be given away either and only sold for the right money to someone who will genuinely appreciate it the way I do

Unless it "wasn't as described", he/she would be bound to pay, no?

Technically yes but he disappeared off the face of the earth once he was the leading bidder with a day or so to spare. Had some initial comms with him where I stated my lowest was 15k but that to him somehow meant I would let it go for 14k and that was his offer. So he was bidding to barter me and not buy

Yeah, I figured that'd be the scenario.

This. Quite frankly if I were to sell up, I couldn't be doing with the 'grief'/idiots you'd get on 'specific marque'-based forums or the likes of eBay, etc.

Agree with both of you Pistonheads is the best option but not sure I can be asked with dealing with anymore tyre kickers, so will probably end up breaking it

Pistonheads every time.

I sold my RA on there, it wern't the cheapest so i think that put most idiots off.

Genuine buyer bought it within a week, hassle free.

don't give the idiots a chance (like bidding on ebay) they hide behind a ebay name and don't have to give you their actual email address.

Nice, would having a uk 6 speed make it more quicker upto redline as apposed to the hawk box you have in there? i.e don't the hawk have longer ratios so in essence holds the gear longer?
Or more degrees of timing yo, aggressive

You love that mad mile lool

Love me some mad mile testing time

That was a 3rd gear pull on vpower and it gets through the gear pretty quick, anything shorter and I would be forever going up and down the box. Mapping wise its spot on and truth be told I only ever wanted 550 from this one, so to have 600 if need be is a bonus
