2003 Sti PPP
SOLD!!!!
Me and the wife are going to get a VW T4 / T5 to do some travelling / camping next year so my beloved Impreza has to go. Basics: It is a 2003 (53plate) Blobeye Sti with PPP (certificate present) in WR Blue with 95,000 on the clock and 11 months MOT, only advisory was worn rear anti roll bar link. Details: I bought the car with part service history, it had stamped history up until 52,000 and the first cambelt then was done by the owner at the time who was a mechanic, he had it mapped by Bob Rawle. The guy i bought it off was a member on here and had added the wheels (Jan 2013) and exhaust system (May 2013) both with receipts to prove. There are other receipts from his ownership as well, battery in 2010, four wheel alignment some receipts for oil etc that his mechanic friend did. I bought it in September of 2013 and i took it to Engine Tuner in Plymouth in October for a check over and any work done that was needed, on this visit i had: Full road and ramp test Discs and pads all round and helicoils where needed on the calipers Primary lambda sensor replaced Cosworth filter panel New Remap to smooth out torque curves, made 353.4bhp with print out I supplied new rear KYB shocks that were fitted (receipt to prove) Bulbs etc replaced Wheel balancing In November 2013 it went back to Engine Tuner for: Engine Oil and filter change that i supplied (Opie oils) Rear wheel bearing Flush and replace coolant It has been to Engine Tuner again since (need to find invoice for date) and had: Other rear wheel bearing Gearbox oil change Diff oil change Cambelt change (92,000) In May 2014 i took it to a local garage as i had a radiator leak and had a 2nd hand radiator from a member on here that i supplied fitted and coolant flush and change. It has been to Rowleys Subaru specialists (need invoice for date) it had: new spark plugs check over as i had a bit of smoke and a squeal, turned out to be a boost leak and a worn turbo Boost pipes checked and tightened and sorted It went back to Rowleys on 24 September 2014 and had: Oil and filter change supplied by me (Opie oils) Turbo bought from a lower mileage car from Matty at BR developments on here fitted Good points: PPP (with certificate) Very good condition Inovit prodrive rep 18" wheels in good condition Cobra full track day exhaust system New rear wheel bearings Plenty of life left in brakes New spark plugs Recent oil changes on everything Nice remap with good power and proof by Engine Tuner New cambelt Lower mileage Radiator Lower mileage turbo Rear shocks 12 months old 11 months MOT (only advisory rear roll bar link worn) Good condition interior (i use seat covers) Sti car mats De-tangoed headlights De badged front upper grill Decent Clarion headunit with bluetooth, hands free, aux in and usb connector in the glovebox Receipts for everything i have done in the last 12 months Bad points: Dent in bootlid. Got dented in the storms last January, i bought a boot in WR blue from a fellow member but it got a scuffed on the bottom edge in transit so i havent fitted it yet. Its debadged and doesnt need a lot to make mint. Front tyres havent got loads of life in but plenty for now Only 1 key Not FSH but with all i have spent and sorted in the last 12 months i think pretty much everything major is covered In the last week the boot release in the car has disconnected somewhere but key works fine Overall i think this is an honest example of a WR Blue Blobeye Sti which has had a lot spent in the last 12 months by reputable garages. I am in Lyme Regis on the South coast of England but i am occasionally in the East mids (leicestershire) visiting family I would like £6750ono or consider part ex on T4/T5 camper Please Pm me on here or reply on this thread and ill get back to you |
wrong photobucket code
|
Not even any comments?
|
Solid car, good price, best of luck.
If I was in the market the bad points would honestly put me off. Can't you at least fix the trivial stuff yourself before selling? |
thanks for the heads up, im speaking to a dent guy at the moment for the bootlid and ill look at boot release latch
|
Any other feedback guys?seems a very quiet thread.

9 out of 10 people will have x amount to buy a car....they want the newest they can get , the odd one will look at yours and bid you knowing what needs doing and have it factored into the offer they make. It will sell fella.....they all do. At least you are honest in the advert and you won't get the usual 'what a waste of a day ' thread popping up :thumb: Glws |
I have tried to be honest for that exact reason,don't want waste of time don't bother going to see comments etc but sometimes it does make you think about how much to put in the advert.most of my bad points are minimal and don't affect the drive or car.i will try to get time to fix what I can and adjust ad as appropriate.i realise it might not be the time of year really either with Xmas around the corner.
|
Honest advert, but I'd say your aiming a bit high with the price bud. It's a good straight car... I should know i owned it haha.
|
long shot but will part ex on T4 / T5 camper
|
Just to add, there is a catch/latch on the boot lid mechanism similar to child locks on a car door. It has known to get caught/moved and disable the internal release lever might be worth a look ;)
|
Thanks Aaron but I had already looked and doesn't seem to be that.
Anyone care to view,it's a great car and looks lovely in the flesh. |
Seen a camper I'd like so £6250 ono
|
Any offers? I won't bite just ask you never know.want it gone fairly soon due to camper.
|
Now at 96k as working a fair distance away, driving lovely but needs a new home.😞
£6000ono |
Pretty much at 98k now, the travelling is becoming ridiculous and I don't want to keep racking the miles up plus the entrances/parking facilities we generally get on site aren't ideal. So although it kills me i will take £5500 so I can get a more suitable work hack
|
Lol Ditchys mini me with PPP.
|
have sent you a message fella.
|
2k miles in 2 weeks lol
any invoice for clutch change? where You base |
Tell me about the mileage,its killing me which is one reason to get rid now before it gets too much.ill miss it though as the drive and sound going to work everyday does make me smile.
No clutch invoice unfortunately,was told a previous mechanic owner did it and the way it pulls with the mileage makes me think it has been done. |
