Aslong as it's in very good condition then it's most probably worth it in my opinion

Subaru Impreza STI V-Limited #381/555
http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-m...555/1072774960

This one? Looks clean enough. Worth a look IMO. I'd lose the stickers and the 18's, and budget for switching the clocks to mph. That'd drive me mad.

It looks a nice car, it's not a 555 though, It's a STI V3 Vlimited.
The badge and numbered plaque should be on the boot lid so I'm guessing the chap moved them to the dash when he had the livery fitted.
If anything, it would make more money without the stickers removed.

As I said, it's a sti v3 Vlimited. People get confused because they only made 555 of them and then immediately think it's a 555. They only made 555 of the car I own but it's certainly not a 555.
The only '555' model Subaru released was the STI V2 555.
Regardless, it's still a fairly rare car and actually looks like a nice one. It's worth £3500 all day long if it's as good as it reads/looks in the advert.
Power wise, it left the factory with circa 280bhp but that was a long time ago.

The ability to understand simple concepts is sadly lacking among the average low-budget Impreza buyer these days Matty.
