Default the wifes car just been dropped off

as above found a really clean 520 blue classic on a m plate no rot anywhere. totally standard bar back box. few electrical faults to fix. will pop pics up tomorrow.
just checked codes and its a wrx sti.
loads of receipts for servicing from scooby clinic and rolling road print out at 246 bhp.


excuse the crappy phone pics will get more up later after a good clean.
its done 87000 miles. and was the bargain of a century

Always nice to get a bargain, looks like a wrx though, not sti.

You doing head gaskets yourelf, otherwise quite a bill for engine out job at a garage. Do the cam cover seals and gaskets at the same time, they would be shot by now.
