Unhappy MY06 - Forester STi

Reluctant Sale:

MY06 Forester STi (330/330) in Obsidian Black. £20,000.







I'm sure most of you guys know all about these .. bought from Litchfield Imports less than 6 months ago.

Usual STi spec : 2.5 Turbo Engine, 6 speed gearbox, Black STi interior, Brembo brakes, 18" Alloys, 14,900 miles, CAT1 alarm system. UK fuel remap. FSH. HPI clear.

It also has had the Litchfield Performance Pack fitted (330 BHP/330 lb/ft) and comes with HID lights and rear window tints.

I've replaced the Jap Ice with some Sony stuff and added a fair bit of sound deadening to it. It's pretty much spot on. It's hand washed and polished regularly.

I'm moving house and can now walk to work. Seems a shame to only use it 1 day a week or for running around town.

Gutted but have to be sensible , I'm looking for £20,000 ...I think it's a bit of a bargain if you look at similar cars at Litchfields/David Hendry and take into account the fact it's been mapped for UK fuel since day 1, always been fed high octane juice and has the 330/330 performance pack added.

No comments on price or alternatives please

Car is located in Aberdeen.

oobster and Martin, thanks for the nice comments.

I guess I'm selling to a limited market as Foz's are maybe a bit of an oddball choice for people interested in a fast scooby

I bought it as I wanted something very quick, fun, good handling but not in your face as much as something with gold wheels and a big spoiler (not that there is anything wrong with that )

A bit of a sleeper really unless you know a fair bit about cars

It is as nice as it looks, goes really well with the performance pack and would leave my previous WRX (with PPP) well behind on B-roads up here, I'm only selling as I'll now be walking to work and it'll really only be doing town runs at weekends which it really isn't designed for or where the fun in owning it is

I'm sure it will sell to the 1st person who sees it, just not sure when that person will come along .... if it doesn't sell, it doesn't sell, I'm in no rush and if I have to keep it, so be it

Just trying to be sensible at cut some monthly costs

Car now on E-bay and Autotrader .. looks like none of you Scoobynetters are interested

Pity I'd have liked it to have gone to a home where it would have been looked after and appreciated

BTTT anyway .. offers?

I'm interested allright

It would fullfill the 'Gunship' role in the Infamous Wagon Squadron

I just need to sell My STi Wagon and S-Turbo Foz first

Good Luck with the sale

Wish you'd had this up 2 months ago I'd have snapped your hand off at that price
I'm waiting to take delivery of my Black Forrester STI from Litchfields next weekend..... with similar spec but far more expensive as its new

Based on what I saw prior to purchase this is too cheap!!

Good luck for what most people dont realise is a hidden gem (superb handling and performance and much, much better practicality)

For everyone even considering this do have a look you wont be disappointed...

Sold

Frog51 on here came to look at it at the weekend and after a wee test drive and a quick comparison with an Impreza STi he's decided to take the Foz.

The wife did catch me gazing out of the window at it last night but needs must and I'm trying to be sensible for once.

Looks like it's on it's way to a good home though, I've got every confidence he'll look after it
