A proper JDM equipped and engined car, this why UK 2.5 cars are so cheap.
|
Good spec as well, would you class buying this as an investment?
|
RCM posted this on their FB page....newly built engine by them with 0 miles.....as usual someone on FB has been possibly a bit bitchy and said that if this is worth that price then his is worth £50K.....

If only I had a spare £27,000 :Whatever_. If you want a nice jdm you certainly pay a premium these days.

Worth more than any equivalent UK spec Hatch with 36k on the clock anyday. In fact the suspension and brakes are worth more than half the cars advertised on various "enthusiast" FB pages.
otherwise its just apples & oranges trying to compare it to a standard uk hatch. lovely car mind! |
Saw this car earlier today when I was at RCM, very nice car
|
There's a white one in Bristol for £ 18000 odd
|
only about 10k over egged,,,, well not prob not 10, but not a 20k car thats for sure
|
£27k ffs! :lol1:

Interesting to find out the reason for the engine build

It's a lot of money, the only benefit I could imagine from buying one is if it we're for investment reasons. By the time you buy a 2.5 STI and stick say 5-7k in to it you've probably got a far better motor with plenty change. I absolutely love how the big brakes look, it makes me hate the std wrx brakes even more. The STI hatch looks decent but these look pretty big. |
Some lads on here ran the ej207 jdm to 500 bhp
Most settle in around the 450 mark |

It's not as if they could sell it with a knackered engine and still think it would be worth £20k or so. I think it would be worth high teens or at a push £20K to the right buyer but at £26995 they are dreaming. :cuckoo: |
LOL. Even if advertised for £18k, it wouldn't sell in a hurry. At £27k, they'll still have it this time next year.

worth more than a cosworth tho? cause that's the only UK hatch you can compare it to really

And I stand by my initial response, that the £27k is justified, not many people have probably read the spec sheet or looked at the PH advert or noticed it is a Litchfield Type 20, R205 suspension, ALCON Brakes, the RCM rebuild and very low mileage. A new STi with the pooh.5 is £30K :lol1: |

That "proper JDM" engine didn't last very long before needing rebuilt.

Do you think the price of these will go in time? Like the P1 etc?

Does it have to go wrong before rebuilding? I know a large number of people do it because they can. Phone up and ask :thumb:
It's a very nice car though, nice spec. Wouldn't mind it myself, could get the dog in the back with that hatchback. |

Cosworth CS400 are averaging about £30k (the cheapest sold on SN was £28K two years ago!) which apart from the Subaru Operetta is very rare with only 75 ever built as a halo car for Subaru UK. I cannot find one for sale at the moment.

I'd have a cosworth in a heartbeat wouldn't be put off by a well sorted 2.5 hatch neither
It so happens I have a jdm Myself but I'd have either to be fair |
