This is a lovely car, well looked after with a full service history. It has never let me down and has flown through its recent MOT and 60,000 mile service (the big service) with no advisories at all.


The interior is in great condition, no rips or tears on the seats, carpets and other trim are good also and it gets hoovered every Friday.


The exterior is also in great condition, the car gets washed, polished and waxed and the exterior trim and tyres are cleaned and dressed as is the engine bay every Friday.


Bad points:
There are the usual stone chips on the bumper & bonnet that are to be expected on a car of this year. The offside front wing has a car park ding that I either got yesterday
or have only just noticed - it wont show up in a photo though. Other than that, the body work is excellent and the paint is solid.The wheels are in good condition but do have marks on them.

The car will come with the following:


- 2 x keys
- Subaru folder
- Service book
- Owner manual
- Alarm pack, security info etc
- Tracker certificate & info
- A folder full of receipts
- Full service history
- Original spare wheel, jack and tool kit



The car is standard apart from the following:

- Mud flaps
- Cobra Sport silencer
- STi upgraded panel filter
- Rear glass tinted


Please note - the three gauges shown in the interior pictures are no longer fitted, the car has been returned to standard trim.

All four tyres have good tread, I had 2 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetrics on the front and a full 4WD wheel alignment shortly after a bought the car.

New discs and pads all round at 52000 miles


The big service (£600) was carried out last month so nothing to worry about for another 10,000 miles and then it is just the small service.

I have owned this car for just over a year now, I bought it with 53k on the clocks. This is the 4th Scooby I have owned and I have enjoyed it immensely but after 4 years of Subaru I fancy a change and have decided on a Mercedes Benz CLK auto as this will provide a car for the missus to learn to drive in and then use as a shared car. No chance of that in the Scooby!

:D I got a thing about cleaning it

pigSTi 19 October 2011 08:10 AM

By the way, the white stuff you can see on the tyres is just tyre dressing that hasn't dried. Nothing sinister :)

Thanks guys :thumb:

Only one serious offer of 6k so far - and one for 5k and another for £5.50...!! 15 watchers on fleabay, loads of PX requests.

I just want it gone now that I have made my mind up! Someone must want to adopt her :D

BIG FUD 21 October 2011 05:01 PM

Take the serious £6k offer might not be there next week buddy :)

dj219957 21 October 2011 11:33 PM

tempted to come and have a look! just the distance putting me off!

james28 22 October 2011 12:38 AM

well worth the pennies a wrx was fetching this price 1 year ago

pigSTi 22 October 2011 03:38 PM

Thanks for the comments guys :)


I had a phone call from a guy this afternoon, he is in Hayes and was asking a lot of questions as it is about 45 mins away.
During our conversation he mentioned other cars that he has been to see and that he had been disappointed, particularly with one, which he travelled a couple of hours to see.

I asked him if he wouldn't mind telling me about the problems, the condition etc as I really had nothing to bench mark my own car by.

He rattled off a load of things including up to 20 dings on just one door, scratches and touch-ups with the wrong colour paint.
I was relieved actually, and told him that my car by those standards at least was really in very good condition.

So he rings back, says that a friend of his lives down the road from me and works in a body shop - can he come over and inspect the car? I said sure, yes. The bloke turns up, takes a load of pictures.
He pointed out the imperfections and commented twice that it was a very tidy car for its year, he seemed slightly surprised when he saw the number plate.

The lady that came with him was on the phone describing the car at the same time, when she finished she said that this bloke was very very fussy when it came to buying cars..

The potential buyer also wants his mechanic father to come over to give the car a once over, which is fine by me.

Basically, this guys bodywork bloke said the car was clean but from the other stuff he and she were saying I have a feeling the guy will try and go lower than the 6k I want.

I have decided now that 6k is low enough, any offer lower is just plain cheeky. 6k is an absolute bargain - I'd buy it for 6k! Looks like I might end up keeping it


What do you guys reckon?

wilbo 22 October 2011 04:00 PM

Dont accept any less than £6k, that is a bloody good price, reckon someone would be along with £6.5k soon after

james28 22 October 2011 04:35 PM

Its your car mate but i would not take a penny less than 6500
If your not desperate to sell just get a small car for the misses to run about in
Thats what i did.

pigSTi 22 October 2011 04:41 PM

Hmm, might have a serious re-think after another weeks advert has run out. Thanks for the feedback again guys, always handy - I'm rubbish at selling cars, don't like it at all!

james28 22 October 2011 05:11 PM

stick the car up on pistonheads just create an account and then you can advertise for free and add 9 pictures it stays on there for 30 days too i would advertise for 6995 ono

dantastic 22 October 2011 06:10 PM

Stick to your guns mate its well worth the asking price.:thumb:

MicaDan 22 October 2011 06:42 PM

I can only echo the above sentiments, this one should be right at the top of the list for anyone looking for a Type UK Sti of this age.

Superb!! :notworthy

pigSTi 22 October 2011 07:50 PM

Thanks for the comments again guys, really appreciated. I have now put the asking price back up on E-Bay and PH to £6995 ono.

I'm leaving it at £6500 on here for fellow Scooby lovers :thumb:

AlanPPP 23 October 2011 12:23 PM

There is NO WAY that car should be sold for less than 6.5K! 6K is really pushing it but sometimes a car needs to go as ive done with mine in the past.

I'd be knocking your door down if i had the money :( our 8 month old is calling the shots at the minute though

pigSTi 23 October 2011 04:03 PM

Couldn't agree more Dan that was an absolute steal at that price mate.

Woody2509 29 October 2011 11:10 AM

6.5k is well acceptable ive got twins on the way and a double buggy (side by side) for the life of me find the dimensions ideally if you could measure the boot bottom ie width x length and the width of the open space of the boot ie the width of the free air space id pass the buggy through. Basically if it fits it's mine :)

I'm afraid the car is no longer on the market - the deal is not done and dusted yet but I have however entered a "gentlemans" agreement pending deposit on Monday.

I apologise for any confusion, If you would like to know the boot dimensions for future reference with other cars for sale I will gladly get them for you :)
