I'm soon to be selling my house and with the excess cash i've decided to buy my first scooby.

I've wanted one for many many years and now i can finally afford one i'm getting one.

Big problem is which one do i go for?
do i got for a classic ?
do i go for a newer one?
or do i got for a type R import?

My budget is approx £10,000 or maybe a little more if the right motor appears.

problem is i dont have a clue. like the import wrx sti type-r but equally like the newer versions.

the car will be used daily so needs to be reliable. and suggestions or advice ? as you can see i'm quite new at this

 

I'd get, and probably will get a RB5 for my 2nd scoob (had a blobeye WRX), get all the benefits of it being a UK car with the little bit of exclusivity it gives you. And well in your price range for a decent one.

 

yeah quite like the RB5 tidy motor. what sort of bhp they have?

 

I'd definetely say get a uk one, and probably the newest low milage one you can find.
I bought a V1 STi import as my first scooby and it was a very steep learning curve!
My personal opinion is buy the newes and lowest milage you can to (hopefully) save you some cash later on

 

that was my initial thought's buy the newest, lowest milage you can which would hopefully mean less problems.

but some of the more powerfull older models are very tempting

 

STi Type R- End of convo

 

depends what u want... for a daily driver i would say that low milege and newest would probably be best bet...

sti type r for fun though

 

yeah daily gentle motorway driving bout 30 miles a day or so.

sti type-r's are mint but i get the feeling it would cost me a mint after a while

looks like its the log milage newer one for me then
