I think you should hold out for a nice wide track, I think you'll kick yourself otherwise.

I drove 540 miles round trip to find mine, but I knew it would be a mint example as had a couple of cars off the garage I bought mine from before, I'm only the 3rd owner and the previous owner had the car for 8 years completely standard with PPP....

It's an 05 plate with 54k miles, full history, BHP is 305 with certificate and a huge folder full of all bills etc.... I have owned 6 STI's over the years and this is by far the cleanest and I am ultra ultra fussy... The only thing I would get done is a wheel refurb as I like my cars mint, saying that there not to bad at all.... Every car has a price, it's just had all the service and cambelt done at Engine Tuner Alan Jerrerys in Plymouth who also said its so clean underneath as well and he has 10 - 15 Subarus in his garage daily !!

If i had 12500 i would buy it. What do you think about the silver one I posted ?
He wants 10k which is my limit realy.
I'm a bit paranoid it's been tracked & clocked but it does check out & it's so clean

It depends what you want... A mint standard widetrack example that's appreciating in price and very sought after or something that's been messed with that will also be very tricky to insure and hard to sell on in the future !! Think about the long term and the investment your making.... Standard mint STI's are becoming very very rare...

Yes your right that's why he can't sell it & for the sake of shaving half a second off 0 to 60 is it realy worth messing with an all ready amazing powerful machine. I don't think so do you.
