Looks great value for a 2.5 that has already had the engine work done.

Are newer Impreza's not selling?
Ive got the money for one, but might need to sell in 6 months if I move house.
Dont want to be stuck with a car I cant sell if I need the money.

No one wants to pay the 500 a year tax on them I Don't think. I'm still looking at them. If this is still up for sale after my cupra sells I'll be in touch dude

How much did the fully forged engine rebuild; Mahle pistons, ACL bearings and head studs, Cosworth gaskets and RCM oil pumps. Heads were overhauled. New water pump. New timing belts. New CC performance clutch cost?

Car was sold at the weekend. Sad day. Sorry about the PM box filling up.
jaygsi - I don't have the receipts now that it's sold. But it was about £5k all in I think. Clutch was extra.

It was great to meet you at the weekend James, thank you for everything; the car was great on the drive up the road... the weather was not.
Couldn't help but take a couple of pictures during the brief time it was in my possession:
Cheers,

As mentioned, Grant done me a massive favour and flew down on my behalf due to unforseen circumstances on the morning i was scheduled to travel down myself. Extremely happy with my purchase. New wheels being purchased this weekend hopefully.
