Is there a market for selling track orientated / modified Scoobies ?
Maybe a silly question but thought I'd ask on here for some advice.
Recently been toying with the idea of selling my Scooby due to boring grown up things lol (buying a house etc etc) but Im not sure if there is a market for selling a modified Scooby and considered just keeping it.
When I say modified, I mean its got lots of 'tasteful' bolt-on cosmetic mods, no serious engine mods like remaps or bored out headers etc. Other than an induction kit and an oil catch tank, the engine is standard.
However, it has no back seats...I took them out to make it more like a track car.
The car is a 2005 WRX PPP Blobeye in Red with about 35k on the clock.
Im really stuck as to what to do, a part of me thinks its sensible to sell her on and focus on the house etc but the other part is saying I cannot be bothered to try and sell her considering the mods it has and I appreciate that mods can actually devalue a car.
Looks stunning (mould aside ) A low mileage blob will sell easily. If I was you I would put the seats back in and advertise as is however you could also return to stock and like that will possibly get a wider range of buyers being stock and low mileage.
hi mate - drop me a PM with mod list and price. Could be interested
Still deciding what to do right now, just wanted to ask for advice on here at the mo. Theres a list of mods on the thread link I posted above. If I do try to sell I'll let you know and likely put a for sale thread on the forum.

Agree with putting rear seats back in if selling but if it was me I would keep it
It's a nice low mileage example , don't see many is red either
You will only get the yearning a few months down the line , regret selling and want to buy another
I've lost count of how many times over the years I've gone sensible , bought a ' normal ' motor then got bored and purchased another impractical fast car with shocking mpg and stupid running costs

+1^^^ red with low mileage rare looks a stunner nice colour combination shame only 1pic dude
Also will be thinking of selling my track orientated/modified prodrive bug.
Sorry to hijack, your wrx is gorgeous dude
Just spent around 2 grand on the car putting everything right with it. In no rush to sell as I will be using it myself for track days, but everything is for sale for the right money. Im a real perfectionist! Has a ridiculous spec, looking 10.5k for it. I have always had n/a track hatches, want to get back into it again.
The car is gorgeous, has everything you could ever want in a track car, and something to jump into and go for a drive at the weekends.
