Default How much is a blobeye STI Widetrack worth??

Hi all, maybe about to buy an 05 Wrx Sti type UK widetrack,DCCD with 61,000miles
Its Ok condition, few rusty bits on it here and there. Just had timing done.
The guy is asking £9K surely thats a bit too much? Ive been told its for too much but what would you recon?

Thanks

About the correct price if its good condition, milage is low too.
If its only small amount of rust id hagle a bit off.

Small rust spots along rear roof, front wheel arches on inside, and where spoiler mounts on to. Deep 5inch scratch on rear wing.
Also has prodrive alloys needing refurbed. Crack and splits on front bumper.
EML is on "Because of decat"?.
Has non factory alarm fitted

Wants to be £7500-£8k max imo

Having just bought a tidy 05 widetrack, I'd say the same.

Sounds like it's been neglected a bit if it's already started rusting. Haggle some off for repairs... 7.5k tbh. But then, I'd rather buy a clean early STi than a widetrack with rust for that money.

I'd avoid it personally sounds abused and unmapped mods are for the Facebook idiot generation.
Unmapped decat will cause over boosting which in turn creates running Lean and engine damage.
