What sort of scooby will I be able to get for up to £12,000?

Im thinking MY99/00 or a nice 99 STi. Am I into TypeR money?

Sound about right? Just trying to work out a budget

 

I got a very nice MY99 ten months ago for £9,000. Not low mileage, but perfect history. You should be able to get something outstanding in the classic line for that money, but I'd go standard tuning because ther're some crap, potentially expensive (i.e. likely to blow up) modified scoobs out there.

 

You should pick up a nice STi5 for that sort of money, and there have been a couple of STi5 Type R's and Type RA's that may be within your budget. Just depends how many creature comforts you want, and whether you want four doors or two.

Happy shopping

Should be able to get a minter of a my00 for that, or even a not so good bug-eye, but why would you want to??
Good Sti's, and maybe a not quite so good type r!

 

What sort of money do decent V5 STis (4 Doors) go for?

Id prefer an Import to a UK but would consider a good UK with Air Con.

Up.

 

Sorry Terminator, wasn't being ignorant, I'm just putting the feelers out.

It's looking increasingly like £10k will be my budget so I'll have to take that into account.

In addition, I don't want huge miles, certainly less than 50k as there's a good chance I'll be piling them on.

Might have to be dead boring and get something a bit cheaper for now.

If you've got 11.5 - 12k you can have my 01 WRX with 18k on it and full service history.

If you've only got 10k you can't have it

it's in the for sale forum.

 

Cheers Buzz

 

I've just bought a totally standard MY99 in mint condition, 1 owner, FSSH, 28,000 miles, A/C, 6 disc cd etc etc with 2yrs P&L warranty, 12m T&T for £10K. You're laughin m8. You should be able to pick up a real bargin at this time of year. Good luck!

Thanks Jay_bee

Looking like a MY99 for me, as long as I can find one with A/C I'll be well happy with circa £10k

No worries

 

mine's got aircon you know...

 

Ninj.. As per my reply to Tainton just now I'm about to put my MY00 X plate Dark Blue Mica 4 door turbo up for £10,800 on Autotrader (I've got a big sensible diesel Merc on order for 1st March delivery!). I'm looking to get £10K for it really. It's done 40K, with full main dealer service history (never raced, always run on SUL/Optimax). It's an EU personal import but is totally standard UK spec, with Cat 1 alarm/immobiliser, aircon, quickshift gearbox, body coloured skirts, side-protection strips, Blaupunkt stereo / 10 disk changer. Taxed and MOT'd up to September. email me at greg.dickinson@lexisnexis.co.uk if you're interested.

 

Wish I had the £10k to give you right now Greg, but reluctantly its going to be about 6-8 weeks before I can change.

Ill put a wanted ad out nearer the time, but in the mean time Im more testing the water.

Thanks for you post.

10 - 12k, what about a RB5 loverly!
I`m in the same situation but cant really go over 10k, looking for a good 99 - 00 Classic low miles etc etc etc It will come its just a matter of waiting for the right one.

I paid 12250 for a MY99 PPP in august from a main dealer, had a few extras too.

 

Boys, boys ....

Go for the STi every time (it's worth the extra wonga)!!

John.

 

Cheers Ninj, no probs.. I'll put my Scoob in the For Sale section this weekend so it may still be available in a few weeks (hope not though!)

 

Why the STI.......my WRX will destroy a STI...the WRX's are still as potaint out of the box as the sti...

there just a little stronger in the block.



all the best

jay

 

Insurance will not let me have an STi I could go for a WRX though

 

Jay.

You are joking [edit for my poor spelling]?!

The standard STi (original) is timed at 4.6s to 60mph (check out EVO mag nr 6) and high 11s or low 12s to 100mph. I don't think that a lard **** standard WRX could keep up with that?!
