Default I want another Subaru

Well tried to be semi sensible - but I want another Subaru.

So my mondeo ST200 will be going up for sale in the next few days, when I can take some pictures.

Clean example, full service history and low mileage.

If you know anyone looking for something similar please send them my way.

At the same time if you know anyone selling a classic, also send them this way.

Many Thanks.

Ashley

Just been looking through the prices. It seems my STi has gone up in value. I paid £3k for it towards the end of last year. Prices now suggest that it would go for up to £4.5k! I could sell all 3 of my cars and buy a newage with the proceeds.

Yep, thats why I was lucky enough to have my Classic (that I bought from a stealer) 9 months and sold it two weeks ago for what I paid for it

Turbo Diesel is the way forward

I to have plans, and they will involve an estate to get the dogs in, 4wd, and about 280 bhp over 400lb torgue and still 35 + mpg

Very close, have looked at the S4, V8 loveliness, but 15 mpg, group 20 Ins, just make it hard to justify.
A4 3.0 tdi TDV S-line, look like a RS4 / S4, with a map has more performance than an S4, and still does 35+ mpg, and lastly only grp 15 Ins.
Sad, old and boring, yes, but very stealthy and will surprise a few 'performance' car drivers. and will get all 3 dogs in

Very nice. Are you sure you'll fit the 2 dogs and small horse in?

Thanks for all the information.

I will place a proper advert in a day or 2.

Looks like I sold my Subaru at the wrong time, sold it cheap and buying another now the prices have gone back up.

It will be VAG I would think, I just want something that’s still fast enough but that’s a bit newer and built better. German is the way forward

I'd go along with YVM's choice. All depends what you want to spend. £12k will get you an E46 M3

Thanks people, I have looked at Passat's Bora's etc. I think I have decided I am going to go for the less popular one of the VAG group…. Yep Skoda!!

I am only looking at only spending around the £4k mark so thinking Octavia vRS as I know they are good cars and still nippy enough for me as I only drive like miss daisy anyway. I would just like a black one but they all seem to be a million miles away!! Anyway im in no rush so will just wait until ones comes up local enough!! lol
