So today the W reg impreza sport has gone woohoo!!!!!, sold it for £600 - tonight I made a purchase - 1993 import silver WRX, boot is full of amps and speakers, whole car was up for £1250 - I got it for £700 - its totally standard not boy'd up in anyway and i'm loving the old school original look - was only MOT'd in April so plenty left.

It needs tlc, owned by a bloke that works on a farm so you can imagine how much of a clean it needs, it needs the cat section replaced, theres a slight water leak on a hose underneath and needs a replacement drivers seat. Was driven 10 miles to my house and drove fine - oh am i happy and its gonna get pampered and treated and loved - full service is needed, i cant wait to get it how it should be

Oh yeah, would i be right in thinking the import is 280bhp? obviously on a car that old it wont be that now

Nice one mate, a bargain you have there

Sounds like good plans you've got, from what i know the early WRX is about 240bhp standard, i'd expect it to be a little less by now mate.

Yeah i'm loving it, i might be wrong but i thought the early UK imprezas were 240 and the imports were 280 - i'm probably wrong, anyway 240 is a little more than 123 the sport had

Nice one mate, sounds like it's got to a good home. Will you be keeping it standard or do you have plans?

Standard i rekon - we'll see

did a bit of research and i believe the uk wrx was 208bhp and the import 237bhp - i'm happy with 237

I want to make a start on it today but i cant as going to mother-in-laws for lunch
