Bit of a story We lost our dog last month ,kidney failure.She hadn’t been able to go walking for quite awhile so we had bought an i30 for my wife to drive. She now wants another Malamute so The Hyundai boot won’t be big enough. So in a moment of madness I said sell mine sell hers and buy a SUV.Thats it no more Subaru. My wallet can relax,I will shut the door on the way out .�� |
Nooooo. Such a shame Dave, especially after all the money, time, money effort, money, upgrades, money, love and money you've shown it.
Gutted. |
The first thing that was said to me was “the trouble is it’s a WRX “ Unbelievable!! |

Cheers Tony. i am still thinking have I done the right thing. |
Now being broken?
|
No Ryan who did most of the work bought it. what his plans are I don’t know. i wish I hadn’t sold it b. |
Definitely being broken then via Facebook....its a shame but they are always worth more that way.
|
I don’t do Facebook so I don’t know what he is doing with it. It will be a pity if he breaks it. |

it is if i had known i wouldnt have sold it to him.
i even gave him some royal purple oil i had left and a power steering pump i had bought. |
The shell would be a good buy paintwork has been ceramic coated which had a top up mid September |
Very sorry to hear, Dave.
Sadly, a lot of project thread cars are worth more in parts than whole and in the end business is business. I'm deep in negative equity on my Bugeye wagon but if I ever decided to part with it I'd offer it on the forum first. Then at least if I changed my mind there'd be a chance - however remote - of buying it back. |
I regret selling it. |
I was told the problem is it’s only a Wrx so not worth very much. |
Hardly only a wrx after all you'd done to it!
|
You live and learn . |
it is a shame but like most have said its worth more in parts.
dave i dont suppose you have a graph of the 2.5 with the s206 turbo do you? im looking for a turbo for my build so weighing up options. cheers |

how much did you let it go for?
|
Not very much |
That’s sad mate:( it seems that proper enthusiast are a dying breed these days,don’t be to hard on yourself mate you weren’t to know the buyers true intentions.SJ. |
I can’t get my head around the fact I was daft enough to sell it. Then to find out it was being broken is gutting. |
Nice build topic - iv now bought the engine from this?
|
Dave I am absolutely gutted for you mate. That's a total worst case scenario to be honest. After all the effort, let alone the money you've spent on the car it's more the time and emotion you've put into the build to see it being broken totally unemotionally is gutting.
Really feel for you mate. Ryan should have told you. He's lost a good customer there. |
I wish I had done another hillclimb before I sold it. i don’t think I will be lifting a wheel in the Rav |
