I don't mean to be rude here, but is the car worth it, you can pick up a 95 wrx for less than £2k and the engine will cost you £3k..
Just a thought before you end up with a car thats worth less than £2k and owes you £5k like soooooooooooo many of us
As you can buy a well sorted scooby for £5k running close to 400bhp
