I would definatly be interested Jed but I'd need to sell mine first , when I posted earlier in the thread I had 5 pm"s showing interest in mine , however all seem to want to offer silly money , like £7k etc , think the highest offer I had was £7800 , I couldn't justify changing mine if it's going to cost me £3-£4k just so I can have a white one instead of black , if I get any genuine interest and offers I'll be in touch , if not then I wish you the best of luck with the sale , selling cars really shouldn't be this hard when your selling such a nice example

I know what your saying pal, it's a lot of money for sake of a colour, I don't know the mileage of yours but 7k is cheap for a high ish miler. I've had several people tell me mines worth 7.5k, I don't even bother replying



£280 for 12 months yes and 154 for 6 months

Cheers mate

Mines got 67k on it

jed_1989

Worth more than 7k

Bean592

Mines got 47k on it but I'd want 8.5 9k for it as a reference

Which means that lots of people are interested in the car but think it is priced to high, but maybe £9k is too low as well, 9.5-10k i would say then get it sold quick and done.

As a reference I sold Bodski my 36k mile 55 plate JDM Hawkeye for £10,100 last year, it was up for £11k but no buyers, dropped the price a bit and gone...

jed_1989

I could have sold it 10 times over for 10.5k and was offered £10,650 at the weekend by a viewer. I would have let it go for 10.5k if I'd not spent 2.5k in December. In which you will reply, mods don't add value. Still I can't afford to let it go cheaper. If I was after a quick sale it would have been gone 2 months ago to the first 10.5k bid. Thanks for the input

Was the car you sold blue by any chance?

Also the £9k offers are just chances, same as the offers jay-sti has been getting.

jed_1989

Just looked, it was blue. Not really the best comparison to be fair. I'm sure if it was a jdm hawk in white ud have been looking for £12,500-£13000 and rightly so

No worries and no offence intended by my post earlier, though i would say if you have it up at £10,995 and you were offered £10,650 and let him go with the attitude that he cant afford the car as you posted earlier then good luck with the sale, it might take a while.


edit to add, it is a fantastic looking car by the way and I'm not saying it shouldn't be worth £11k, but the car market at the moment is rubbish and cars are not moving in this price range so sometimes you have to get what you can get, if I was looking for another Scooby I'd be looking at yours keenly but I've got no room on the drive at the moment.

jed_1989

I know what ur saying pal, I had it at £11,500 wanting £11000. But then thought what's the point, I may as well say what I want for it rather than waste ppls time with offers. I don't think it will take a while but if it does it's not a big issue at the moment. I think it's a fair price for the spec, rarity and condition but others won't, everyone's entitled to an opinion and I respect that mate, as said before thanks for the input. Don't want to make the for sale thread a conversation that's all pal, ppl seem to follow and it turns it into a general chit chat

jed_1989

I understand that mate, it's an added advantage of not needing to sell the car. I'm not trying to rip any1 off I just don't feel the need to let it go cheap for no reason. I'm quite happy at the moment to get it out at the weekend as I love the car and it's fantastic to drive. In the long term though I can't warrant it being sat there doing not a lot. On a positive note for the buyer, it's had a lot spent on it so things like the service, cambelt, have just been done so should not need any money throwing at it for a good while. If it was due a service and cambelt there would be over £500 to lay out there

Theres no doubt imo its worth your price, the rarity of it being 1 of 6 in white, coupled with the outlay youve had recently warrants this. Im a classic man through and through, but if i was looking at purchaseing a newage id have no issues with the buying this off you. The fact that its a UK dosent make it big difference as i see it, the 2.0l sti is known to be a strong engine when looked after and modded properly. The right buyer will turn up soon enough im sure.

Cheers mate, I don't think it will be here much longer if I'm honest, got a few ppl interested. I agree with you on the uk models, although I don't doubt the jdm's are better the uk engines and gearboxes are still brilliant and capable of good power

These are the best uk model though budd full stop .
2 litre diff best engine best standard spec this ones rare
It's basically a jdm but with the added security of full traceable history
Whatever people say jap history even full ( do you trust it)
Really nice car if my wife hadn't bought a golf gti I'd buy this for the asking price

Ignorance is bliss lol

jed_1989

Cheers mate

I agree 100%, when I was looking to buy this I was only considering uk models for that very reason. I like the idea of the twin scroll set up but I prefer the security. And as u can see by the description it's been looked after and serviced regularly. I can't speak highly enough of gr performance so I know the cars set up properly
