2003 (53) Subaru Impreza WRX STI Type UK (PPP)
 
5 Attachment(s)
I'm reluctantly selling my scoob. I have owned it for 5 1/2 yrs and I am the third owner. It is a V8 STI Type UK with PPP.

It has done 108k miles but the engine is like new and has a full service history. I have spent over £4k on it over the past two months (with receipts to prove).

Totally standard apart from grooved and drilled front discs.

Work done one month ago includes:

Full professional engine rebuild it has done 1k miles since. I have just finished running it in and had the oil changed and it is purring.
New clutch
Cambelt replaced (same time as rebuild)
4 brand new sessanta ultrac tyres.
New radiator
New battery
MOT till april 2012

Bodywork is very clean, no scrapes or bumps.

Interior is in very good condition.

Over £3k's worth of ICE. Including : Focal Utopia components, McIntosh Amp & Custom door builds. Discrete with audiofile sound quality.

This car has had a lot of money spent on it and has the usual stuff sorted so it should be good for another 100k.

£6500 ono

Can I just ask who the rebuild was with mate ??

looks a nice car and decent price.

Tr1cky 10 June 2011 08:07 PM

I was recommended a guy locally who works at Ken's Autos, I'd heard a lot of good stuff about him. He is a scooby mechanic and has a lot of experience. I have carefully run the engine in and just had the oil changed and its is sounding good.

Finally, someone selling a blob STi without there head in the clouds

I hope you get every penny mate

Good luck with the sale

Tr1cky 10 June 2011 08:52 PM

Thanks mate.

I have spent a lot of money on this car and I have enjoyed every minute.

I have no illusion the mileage may put some people off.

It is a good car and has been treated with respect and a lot of the main things that these cars need at this age have been done so it's all ready to go for the next owner. In this respect it I know it is a better buy than a lower mileage car that has yet to have the common bottom end issues, leaky rad, cam belt due etc.

Its got to go. Make me an offer......

chris84 11 June 2011 05:52 PM

has it been mapped since the rebuild?

have you had any suspension work done on it?

Tr1cky 11 June 2011 08:03 PM

It hasn't been re-mapped.

No suspension modifications. (I had the rear shocks changed under warranty shortly after I bought it)

Let me know if you want any more info.

Why was the engine rebuilt?

Tr1cky 11 June 2011 08:20 PM

The bottom end developed a knock.

Rather than just have the bottom end done I decided to have a full rebuild given the mileage.

The car is now SOLD.
