Lol, he only asked how much and how many miles. What's with the full advert!?

I've seen some pretty thinly-veiled 'for sale' ads in my time, but this takes the biscuit. Come on, dude - just pay the £4 or however much it is and get it stuck in the right section. You'll get much more interest.

Come to think of it, the title of the thread doesn't even make sense. "Sunday treat". What is the Sunday treat? There isn't a single car-care product in any of the photos. Not even a token bucket and sponge! I bet these photos weren't even taken on a Sunday!!!

Forgot to mention it passed the MOT today so 12 months to pop on the advert

Fair play to you, dude - at least you're not trying to deny this is a brazen, unapologetic attempt to advertise your car for sale without paying.

And posting it in Gallery is genius; makes a change from the usual 'what's it worth' threads in General.

The question is: will you get away with it or will admin nab you?

Cheers chap, just taken delivery of a new company Audi A6 Avant S line plus the missis has the people carrier for our little ones, the Subaru is a beaut and my weekend drive but I fancy an M3 E92.... Had 6 Subaru's over the last few years and always missed them when I have sold but hey life's too short not to try something different if you get the opportunity...

Appreciate the advice chap, and when I do decide to pop the Subaru up for sale I will be sure to explore the For Sale section, iv got the car looking so good and invested in all the right mechanical upgrades and service elements that it will be a dark day when I do decide to part with such a low mileage great condition example of the great Blob STi

Bloody hell, now he's trying to sell it to me! Chill out, dude - I'm not in the market for a widetrack at the moment. Decent sales patter, though!

I'm just joking, mate.

Russ, you bought this 5 months ago, why are you selling? You seem like a trade seller, especially thinking you will get 13k for it..

I don't think you're far off price wise, but I'd say 13k is a bang on trader price.

I'd also say get rid of the nur-spec and put a standard (or at least a quieter) system on, it will appeal more to the enthusiast.

Just my ten pence worth!

Cheers - I have the full Prodrive exhaust in my garage and your right when I bought the car I was looking for a complete box standard example but couldn't resist the notes the Nur Spec bellows out to be honest.... The car isn't for sale but I would sell for the right price, not sure why most are getting there Knicks in a twist lol....

Nope just your average car lover pal.... My STi isn't for sale anywhere and why would I bother putting my private reg on the car if I wanted to sell ?

All I was saying is that every car has its price and with the STi DCCD Widetrack appreciating in value and commanding top dollar for low mileage low owenership standard examples it is a draw hence why I took over 12 months to find mine...
