Default Common faults STI 2007??

Hi would you be able to advise me what I should look for with regard to common problems/ faults on the Hawkeye STI model? Year 2007
What would you say the going rate is for an 07 sti ppp with 25000 miles and 4 owners?

Thanks

Someone on here must be able to advise me what to look for with regards to faults, or are they bullet proof?

Where do you want to start?
Engine issues with "tuned and none tuned" cars, mainly being piston rings, HG's (though much more common on the 06 model car), cracked cylinder liners etc.
The standard 2.5 isnt exactly the best engine, I would look for a JDM 2ltr car which is more powerful out of the box, plus has more goodies

No issues with mine in std (and up to 400bhp) form whatsoever apart from the rear strut knock that all newages have and a cam belt idler going.
