Genuine reason for sale; I partially dislocated my left shoulder, and face a long painful rehabilitation period, as such I have had to buy an auto.

Sorry to hear about your shoulder, Brad 
, and sorry to see that the car has to go
1000 mile by KT Green (Franchised Subaru dealer), 7.5 by KT Green, 15k by KT Green, 22.5 by RN Golden (Subaru dealer) and 30k by Robinsons of Rochdale 
Part of me wants this car back, and that price is a bargain!

It ran for 11months, approx 10k miles in uprated spec of 300bhp+, and has been religiously looked after.
Prior to me buying the cripple wagon, it was my only vehicle.
It's all back to standard now bar the mods listed above, and is running standard power.
It was 'over' serviced (based on time not mileage) as I was/am paranoid, and like to keep my motors in tip top order..
(just ask Adam/SpecialX at the clinic!)
Just to clarify for those that think Im getting shot due to some unmentioned nasty gremlin, and think I'm pulling a fast one
:
I AM ONLY SELLING AS I PARTIALLY DISLOCATED MY LEFT ARM
(major subluxation for those who really want the detail!)
Everytime I change gear it hurts like murder, and 3rd to 2nd damn near pops it out again.
That's the ONLY reason I am selling.
Hope that helps John.

Hi,
Yeah it is on there.. only one enquiry from the ad tho
It's frustrating how everyone thinks that whatever price you advertise it at, they can knock £1000+ off the price before even seeing (let alone driving) the car.
If I sold it for £6000 or under, I would be ripping myself off..

I had the same thing selling mine, people trying it on - offering low amounts.
At the end of the day, a well looked after car will sell for a realistic price.
I sold mine, for 7k see no reason why you shouldnt.
The right buyer will come along, its just a matter of time.
I am still getting calls about my car from the autotrader ad I placed 2 weeks before christmas - now.
Its weird, anyway, free bttt and good luck.

of course.
I'm not giving it away though!
Failing that I shall strip off all the goodies (brakes/suspension etc) and then reduce the price of the car to reflect that and sell the parts seperately.

Hi, no- it hasn't gone yet.
Have had a few looks (4) - but they ALL mentioned one or more of the list below:
a: got scared by insurance costs Not as tho its a saxo
b: whittle about affording any possible repairs/maintainance in the future, thus withdrawing from the buy.
It's a well maintained motor that has been bomb-proof in the three years I have owned it.
It's a scoob ffs!! not a micra!
If you can afford to buy the car, be prepared to run it and look after it.
You'd be amazed how many only admit that they could only just pay for the car and insurance after agreeing to buy it!
c: bleating about the mileage (72K - V plate MY00, pretty good considering its a six year old car)
Hope that answers your question
Need any more info?
