Hi
Im new to the forum as i was recently offered a:
1998 Subaru impreza turbo 2000
Now im not sure where exactly i should of started this thread but can any one help put a value on it for me as im struggling as i wish to sell it on rather than keep it (18 yrs old, no chance on insurance)
So spec wise

Mot til october
Has full service history and oil change every 3 months
Any help is much appreciated

£800 to £1000 as high milage, green, and uk turbo. The oversized scoop also detracts from it

Jack Kirk

Wow thankyou
Current owner seems to think double that

I'd say a bit more than that....(not loads more though)as long as has full history and isn't falling apart with rust. You'd struggle to find a good sport for 800-1000 surely?

So for a turbo I'd say 1200-1500.

This man does not like green scoobs

he is true though, green is a real marmite colour and the least favourite for buyers hence the lower value. Typical cost of a UK with similar mileage varies from £1100-£2000 with green making less.

As above pretty much, £1100-£1200, milage is the biggest thing reducing the price

Cheers for the help
He wanted swaps for my classic mini(up for 2k)
So max im going to get for the subaru is around £1200 as theres no chance ill get insurance on it

'Uk spec & uk built'

UK spec, but no 'normal production' Subarus where/are built in the UK.

And terrible spoiler...

Along with no engine pics, high milage, chances are its rusting from the inside out......

Avoid avoid avoid....

I actually would go so far s to say I wouldnt buy a classic unless I was specifically looking for one, and I would always buy with a view to needing to carry out major surgery on the arches and sills.... Unless it is properly enthusiast owned (such as Silver Scooby Sports and Joes examples, of which I would buy without hesitation of rust issues) then the chances are it will be rusting without visible signs, and once it is visible you have a real problem
