What a lovely car.

Keep it, drive it and enjoy it, don't worry about the miles.

Also if you break it you should get an insta ban from the forum, that would be criminal

Thanks Fishbowl.

It’s not a case of me intentionally not using. I have my s-tronic S3 as my daily which to be fair is an amazing allround car! I considered buying a new 335d but the Audi’s comfort walked the BM’s! The Evo only goes on track so sits in the other garage till I go on track.

The Scooby sits here with little requirement. I have been making myself take out as I’ve said, and tbf I’ve done 1000 or so miles in her since mot so have used it more than I thought! But it always makes me smile, it always turns heads and the noise she makes it truly addictive!

If it sells who ever buys should take my wheels too. They sit so well on them! If I put wheels on I know I will end up keeping!

Also My half hearted sale, I’ve literally only advertised her on here. I want someone who will appreciate her for what I’ve made it so far and make her better.
I don’t think you can buy another with the mileage mine has and scarcely I worked out roughly I’ve put another 17’000 in her so the spec is pretty amazing.

Hi Stevie,
Mine is genuine subaru parts! Not cheap!!!
It was new tailgate wing and uprated springs boot does have different part number!
The webbing inside the boot is different and weighed more so I will say it is stronger

Painted it was nye on £2500 but I think it transforms it.

Some have gone carbon tailgate and carbon wing I would happily swap mine over to carbon But even if I sold mine to you it wouldn’t be cheap! There are some cheap designs but you can tell!

I took one of dash mileage now is 9276 no idea why it’s out of focus really sorry can re take if needed

And someone else asked for better picture of engine these all taken this morning.

Ok thinking to go back to standard so if interested in anything from her please send a pm.

A few people have already messaged showing interest. To keep it fair first come first served. If I don’t get enough interest in all items really (well taking car back to std) obviously “I won’t break her”

She is amazing thank you.
I have a feeling it will be still here in a year or so. Maybe I should advertise somewhere other than here.

Or £500 to someone who initiates the lead to the sale of her.

The trouble is in today's fuel conscious society and knowing the issues with the 2.5 Subaru engines this car will never be worth the sum of it's parts when you're trying to sell it. Especially on a specialist site like this.

You may be better off on a regular site like Autotrader or eBay where you'll be selling the dream to someone new to the community.

I'd love this car, I just struggle with the price even considering the mileage and fantastic condition. It really is a 1off car and I can understand why it's priced the way it is. Sadly, most people would probably opt for a higher mileage vehicle in worse condition if the price was lower.

I really hope you find a buyer and don't have to put this back to standard. Everything you've done to this and the attention to detail puts it heads above anything else in it's league.

If it were forged, it would have sold by now IMO.

GLWTS buddy. P.S. if you would rather I removed this post, I'm more than happy to do that.

Well I have spoken to Paul on the subject. Regarding having spent a large sum with him and have done a few deals for him. He would happily build the engine in her for an amazing price. This offer I believe is for me or the car I believe.

She is running perfectly but if this was a deciding factor for someone. If they paid 50% of rebuild I will get it done and sell at listed price.

So half price rebuild in effect.

Now that would be a hell of a car! That's a very good deal.

Hi everybody I've bought this Impreza and what an amazing car it is, the condition of the car
is unbelievable and attention to detail with all the mods is second to none.
The whole buying experience was a pleasure, Jamie was a true gent to deal with bearing in
mind he didn't know me and I am new to the forum.
