Default :: :: :: MY03 WRX PPP in WR Blue :: :: ::

I'm selling my car to release funds for a new business venture, and would rather sell to an enthusiast so I'm giving it a couple of weeks in here before I put her in the Trader.

WRX PPP in WR Blue Blobeye MY03 (52 plate, Jan03) 42k, warranty until Jan 28th 2006 (when it will also need its 1st MOT), Taxed until 1st Jan 06.

£12,700 ISH, make me a sensible offer ! The car is available to view in Leeds, W. Yorkshire.

This is the latest pic I have of her as she looks now....



Appearance....

Genuine Subaru STi high level spoiler (just fitted )
MRO front grille (colour coded)
Subaru lower mesh grille
Full detango with LED indicators (much more visible than silver bulbs)
Rally flaps in blue
Colour coded sills (done by a professional bodyshop, so not dimply like the early Subaru sprayed ones)
Discrete "Prodrive" logos on the flaps and below each side repeator

Handling mods....

AST coilovers with height and 12 position damping adjustment
Whiteline 22mm adjustable rear ARB
Whiteline solid (steel) rear droplinks
Front upper STi strut brace
Goodridge stainless steel braided lines
Ferodo DS2000 pads
Ferodo DOT5.1 fluid
New discs (Subaru OE) and pads fitted 3k miles ago

Performance mods....

Not much over the PPP as the warranty is still applicable, and anything done can be easily reverted if needed.

JR Racing panel filter
Ram-air scoop and resonator removed

Security

Subaru Cat 1 alarm/immobiliser
Tracker
Clifford Blackjax






I haven't got many piccy's, and none since fitting the STi spoiler, but will add some more soon.

As you can see, the car is gleaming, and is renowned for always being the shiniest car at the WYIOC (West Yorks) meets. She is meticulously washed whenever she is even slightly dirty, even if that means 3-4 times a week in winter. She is waxed monthly with Meguiars NXT, and twice a year gets a full clay, ScratchX, NXT and then a layer of Simoniz Original (very hard wearing pure Carnuba wax).
She has been nursed and loved since the day I got her, being warmed up before every journey however long or short, and cooled down during the last few miles of every journey. She is only ever run on Optimax/SUL, and has been run with Silkolene ProS 5W40, changed every 5k. The service history is upto date, with main dealer services upto the 20k, and Scoobyclinic thereafter. The body warranty, which requires inspection and treatments on year 1,3 and 5 was done on year 1, so that is also upto date.

The standard WRX alloys are fitted with Toyo Proxes T1S tyres showing over 5mm of tread.

I also have a set of STi alloys fitted with Bridgestone RE070 tyres which I use as summer tyres, and showing over 6mm of tread. These can be included at extra cost.


PM me offers/questions, please don't fill my thread with unconstructive opinions. Anyone wishing to test drive will have to prove suitable insurance, otherwise I will drive for you. Canvassers and Nigerian millionaires don't bother Payment by bank transfer only, car will only be released when my bank is satisfied funds are secured.

Nice motor very well looked after..!

I know you probably won't want to start messing about, but I'd be intersted in the sti spoiler for my 05 wrx.

Let me know if you're interested (I'm sure you won't be, but I have to ask..!)

Thanks Jasonious, but I've only just put it on and am a bit gutted to be loosing it so quickly. It has to stay on the car, as with a retail value of over £1200, and people like yourself even paying up to £500 to do a swap with a.n.other STi owner, it really is one of the cars selling points. If by some slim chance a buyer expresses a preference for the small wing, I will get in touch though

If you are putting it back to basic ppp pack I would be interested in the Whiteline ARB and possibly the panel filter if the price is right.
Scoobnet full of vultures !!

Heads up for the shiniest, best-kept Scoob I have ever seen.

Best of luck mate - the buyer of this car will absolutely love it.

Corradoboy, I`ve advertised it on the "Civic Type R" forum for you, as some of the CTR boys are quite keen on Scoobs.........

Good luck.


Here`s the link BTW.................http://civictype-r.co.uk/phpbb2/view...bf8129f#931437

I know I'm in the same club and will spout things good about a fellow member & good friend.. But this car is immaculate and cherished..

The owner has a weird job and spends all day loving, caring and driving this properly and you'll not get a better example.. period.

I`ve just checked myself on the CTR forum, but there are no replies at all on it.

I did post the link to this actual page as well mate, so I can only presume that there`s nobody interested.

I will keep an eye on it though, and let you know.

Thanks again. I did click on the link you posted, but you have to log on. I registered, but never got my confirmation email (or it went in my bulk (spam) folder which I delete without checking.

Cool SOME MORE PICCY'S

Here's a few phone-cam pics (in other words, not very good) to show the spoiler, wheels, grille and small (but legal) plate. Better quality ones to follow soon.....









Needs a wash too too hot to do it just now though

Sorry Patrick, but I was never chasing a PX with any marque. I want to release funds for a business venture.

Thanks for the interest.
