SUBARU IMPREZA WRX STI 2006 (55 plate)
 
Hi All,

Im looking to sell my car

Heres some info:

2006 (55 Reg) Subaru Impreza WRX STi

73,330 miles

2.0 Turbo

ProDrive performance kit

Only owner since new

Well looked after (Well loved)!!

Never blew it's hole in! (Must be love!)

Must be seen to be appreciated

Immaculate condition inside

Immaculate outside except from a small scrape above front passenger wheel arch (that came around by refusing to leave it lying out on the street at my mum's. i therefore tried to squeeze it in to a very tight garage and caught a very small bit just above the wheel arch!) Alloys could do with some attention, but nothing serious

No time wasters!! Genuine interest only!!

Looking for £10,500

Some say its a lot for what it is. I say they arent sure of what it is...

Any questions at all, drop me an email at: jen.keane@hotmail.co.uk

Or if you want to speak to me, drop an email with your number!

I will do my best to get back to you!

Thanks

If you're after a quick sale, your asking price doesn't indicate this. It's quite optimistic IMO by current market values.

Have to agree with you!!:thumb:




If your after a quick sale it needs to be a lot cheaper then advertised, Have you looked at private adverts with widetrack blobs with the same sort of mileage to get a idea of prices???

Yep, I agree, this is more then DCCD money :cool:

Thanks for the comments.

I just feel that having spent close to £34 grand on it i would hope to sell it at a price i could accept rather than giving it away lol

**jay** 16 July 2015 07:36 PM

Spent 34k on it??

prestigesec 16 July 2015 07:40 PM

You would need to change your advert imo as saying you need to get rid or go bankrupt will have people turning up with cash in hand to tempt you to sell at a very low price as they think your desperate. Upto you though what you do but the price is too high to start with imo.

Yep, the price for the standard model was 28 at the time. I added the extras for the car I wanted. Unfortunately they werent free and took it up to near the 34. No doubt someone will tell me different though lol

leeds_182 16 July 2015 08:12 PM

24k depreciation in 10 years ain't that bad.

£2500 a year.

Sorry mate noticed you owned it from new, not going to comment on the price as its what ever you want to sell it for but id take the stickers off as it puts off a lot of buyers.
Good luck with the sale though.

Cheers mate. I appreciate what people are saying about my high expectations and I am well aware of what similar ones are going for. To be perfectly honest I very highly doubt you could get the same motor that has been looked after the way I have looked after mine. So perhaps it does seem a bit much and I appreciate what folk are saying but at the end of the day its been my pride and joy since the day and hour I got and if I cant get a figure I am happy with then it wont go..

Which is understandable after spending £34k buying it brand new, hope you get what you want for it mate:thumb:, but as already mentioned might be worth removing the stickers and get a well detailed advert with some really good pictures of it polished/waxed up, and some pictures of interior/engine bay, and details of service history etc, and when cambelt was done and as many things as you can, really need to over sell it to achieve a good price.

Definitely.. It will genuinely break my heart if and when it goes but in this case I think I need to go with my head rather than my heart and get it done! You've probably gave me that bit of motivation iv been needing though and ill aim to get something decent done at the weekend.. In between running football teams and a business :lol1::lol1::lol1:
The quicker I get it done the less time I will have to ponder on if it's the right thing to do :lol1:!
Cheers mate :thumb:

Fook me that's scary.

scotty75 16 July 2015 10:48 PM

I would remove the stickers and looks like the wheels could do with a refurb maybe .

Yeah, the problem is the op is selling just as they've stopped to depreciate and started to appreciate.

It's still not that bad when you look at how much quick Audis and bmw's have lost in that same time frame.

:lol1: It's a Widetrack you plonker, so it is a DCCD car. :lol1:

Lose the stickers, Sort the damage, re-firb the alloys, quality detail with full machine polish and you should see about £9k. :thumb:

As is you're going to struggle, especially on here, no one want's a car that's damaged, and needs work at top money.

ZANY 18 July 2015 08:17 AM

damage?
 
Ermmmm damage?? Soz can u be a bit clearer were the damage is?? And the graphics may be to some peoples taste as each person has their opinion on what's nice and wats not to taste but should accept that every1's taste is different as I think it gives the car character in its own way but each to their own :) ☺️ nice car but is expensive maybe at a lot lower mileage it would have been worth it good luck with the sale 👍

You want to try reading the description properly before you comment. :thumb:

You'll also notice that in my reply I said "especially on here" because 99% of people on this site don't do "Rally Rep" sticker kits and 99.99% of those that do like the look ain't got the dosh ;) so he's going to seriously struggle to get anyone to cough up £10.5k for a 73k car with a scraped front wing, scuffed alloys that's covered in stickers, regardless of what he paid for it 10yrs ago. :thumb:

HTH.

The comment was referring to it being a widetrack? :)

User 21721 19 July 2015 11:31 PM

£34k back in 2006 is about £45k today's money, plus all the other bits you bought whilst you owned it :(

It's definently not cheap but you have had your fun out of it.

Regards,

Subaru collector 555.
