In 2001 I bought my MY00 Uk for £14K with Link, HKs exhuast, DP and air filter. Still going strong with near 70K on the clock.
Thought about getting a new one but then considered how much money I have lost on mine, and how much I have spent on it since I hve had it!!

Hey, Andy, youu're still around then. Yep, I've still got mine, still use it as my everyday transport, and it still gets the odd outing around the twisties 
Tony, have you still got your Impreza ?
I bought a MY98 with PPP and full Prodrive bodykit (Sti rear and chin spoilers, 17" wheels, colour coded body work etc. ) for £13,500 in May 2001.
Its still as I bought it apart from 4 pot Brembo's on the front and STi 7 wheels as the original Prodrive Speedlines (which Ive still got) dont fit over the Brembo's.
Weve got 2 cars so it doesnt get used much these days and were thinking of getting a new car VW Golf R32 maybe but I dont think ill ever sell my Scooby.
Ill probably just clean it up, get a few bits sorted that need touching up and put her in the garage and keep her in good nick.
Maybe one day she may be worth some thing again,maybe not
...what will a good condition classic be worth in 10 years time ?

April 2003 from Aidan Piers in Knutsford 
I was trading up from a 1997 2.0Celica GT in black and bought a 1999 UK Turbo for 11k. It turned out to be modified with Eiback springs, boost valve, boost gauge etc which was a nice suprise and I added mintex pads and discs for good measure...
Found SN by accident looking for advice as to why it was cutting out at
1.4bar as I didnt know if this was excessive. I registered, posted a thread and was assisted by RRH within a day or two. Now on my second Impreza (a much slower but almost standard 02WRX) but very happy with the car and with SN

Mar 06 and paid £9.5k for a 51 Plate Bugeye WRX. Wish I'd waited 6 months or so and saved the extra bit for an STi. Never mind finish of the finance and upgrade then......
