Thought I would put it in this section as well as I am from Essex. I have loads of pics so if you want any or some info let me know

Highly Modified Subaru WRX Wagon 1998 UK spec



Right I currently have just put my car up for sale due to the change of jobs and also the fact that the car was no longer big enough so I purchased a Nissan Patrol.

The car was purchased off a friend so I know the history of the car from when it was a 100% standard through to the massive specification that it currently stands at.

I am looking for £5250 ono for the car, which I feel is very fair looking around at various prices.

The car specification is as follows but I am sure there will be bits I miss out as I have gone through the receipts but there is a rather large amount of them.

General Details

The car is a 1998 UK spec WRX wagon
Car has MOT and TAX and has about 6 months of each although this can be negotiated if need be.
Car has zero faults and runs like a dream
Car has recently been serviced and remapped to ensure all is working in tip top condition (which it is)
The car currently runs 349 BHP and 315 lbs although I have been told by my friend and a Subaru tuning garage that the engine is specified for a figure of well in excess of 400 BHP (I can give details of the well know garage should people want to discuss the car) although to go the whole hog would need additional money spent in areas such as the drive train.
The car was rebuilt to the following high specification in September 2006 approximately 13K miles ago. The car has done 120K miles in total but there are hardly any components left that have done anywhere near this mileage.

Body work

Red mudflaps

The body work is very good condition for the year not perfect in every way but it is exceptional condition really as the photos show. There is the odd parking dent etc but nothing that detracts from the look of the car

Brakes

Front and rear disks from later version Subaru 4 pots for the front (will try and find out what model they are from)
Braided Brake hose kit

Car History

The car has a service log book with various stamps from new until now and has all recent receipts since the modifications have begun so the history is very good. The history is not perfect in terms of paper work for its whole life but I do have every bill for every mod no matter how small so you know exactly what you are getting and what has been done

The car has been rebuilt to the current specification in September 2006 when the mileage was around 107K so the current engine has done approximately 13K miles. The engine was given to B.G.V engineering to carry out the rebuild to the specific specification that was requested as they are exceptional engine builders.

If you are seriously interested in this car and have any questions just let me know. This is not your average Subaru and has been built to a far higher engine specification than the actual power suggests and there are no current faults with the car at all.

As mentioned the car is for sale for £5250 however as always I would be open to reasonable offers.

Should give you all a better Idea of the condition.

Plu sI did mention open to offers (although please be sensible)

leegtr

I am trying to get the links better as they are now only showing thumbnails, which are not very useful in showing the cars condition

Sorry, I am 30 year old computer novice

Tiny

Tiny

In your gallery you get the option ... Thumbnail Mode , Just click on the "No" Option

leegtr

Right I think the penny may have dropped.

Here we go now I am holding my breath and crossing my fingers so here I think are the better quality images








Thanks Tiny I was starting to get the computer jitters lol

IN THE STICKS

Tidy looking wagon there , what a lot of kit for the money

leegtr

why thank you very much thought the price was reasonable.

Its one of them cars that you own and will honestly sad to see it go. If for some reason it did not sell I would take the car off the road and go into storage as it has a massive amount of potential for future mods

nice wagon, a black ic core would make it a real sleeper, good luck with the sale

leegtr

Funny you should mention the intercooler as one of my future plans I had considered was to spary the wheels and intercooler black.

I thought it would give it that sleeper look

Well if it does end up not selling, I think over the winter I would do that and also give the engine bay a bit more shine.

Mind you I hope it sells but in the current car market you never know.

leegtr

up she goes

leegtr

Am I asking to much for the car or do you feel it is good market value?

current financial climate, cars are not top of most peoples lists at the mo.

Looks a stunning car fella, so try and hold out for as long as possible before you let it go for peanuts.

leegtr

No worries about holding out if it does not go I will make a decision to sell my one of my others and get the work car I need.

Woudl like it to go but wont be letting it go away for peanuts. I would take a bit less but it is not leaving for 3K

Think you are right on the current financial climate tho, cheers for your advise, I did originally think that at this spec and condition it would fly of the drive tho

leegtr

Up for the weekend. Got a few interested and I am sure the first to see will buy.
