my fav bit is this statement bearing in mind that there is no mention of any upgrades he thinks its got a hundred more horse power than when it was made !!!

The car is running at approx 320 BHP but has not been confirmed but has been raced and tested against the quickest around, engine sounds fantastic with a loud exhaust and a dump valve to perfect the sound.

Have to say though, that is almost exactly what I want to do to a bug eye

Minus the "Gangster Tints" and the horrible roof and bonnet scoops.

Lets pull apart the ad just a little shall we

1.Here is the babys of all babys.... ummm no

2. many Subaru fans have mean mistaken this WRX for a P1, STI or even Prodrive. cliff never had this problem, so they must be a bit thick around his area

Exterior

3. small dent on car boot. , I remember cliff doing that...

4. Have recently added on STI side skirts and large STI bonnet scoop with matching mini vent placed on roof, which you may see from the pictures but can only really acknolwedge once you see the car in person. It is also been upgraded with a STI clutch and quickshift gear box, which is impressively smooth and completes the ride.

side skirts were already there and the roof vent was.

5. The car interior is absolute mint showroom condition, as i am a non smoker and no kids. yeah but cliff was and he had a dog as well



6.The car is running at approx 320 BHP dubious claim

7. Just thought the Sub also has a FLAME KIT and NEON LIGHTING fitted, the list is endless....

ah now the seller is being honest here , as those last two details are spot on

Shut it *****

Yes, that`s my old car

It says it has STi skirts fitted now, but they aren`t in the picture and those are the standard ones colour coded!!

I never fitted that horrendous bonnet vent either!!

The neons were already fitted to the car when I bought it, but I disabled them and got a call from his after he bought it asking how to connect them up again

....and for the record.....

Dat car was da bomb.....nuff sed innit!!
