Hi guys not sure if I should be posting here but not sure but I'm after some advice on how much I should be advertising my car for its a 93 Impreza classic 104k miles body work is straight but a bit tatty ( paint flaking off of scoop) that's the worst bit but it's got
Tdo5 turbo
Stainless turbo back exhaust
Front mount intercooler
3 pillar pod digital voltage and oil pressure and a stepper boost gauge
Bigger front brakes
Baileys bov


Uprated fuel pump
Strut brace (top front)
Coilovers
Just had cam belt kit
Water pump
Oil pump and crankshaft oil seal (problem I had which you guys advised to be oil pump so thanks for that as I had no idea so now it's all cured ) I'm after a rough price as I've seen so many ranging from all sorts of prices and just want to know roughly where I should be pricing her

£500-£1000.

Got some value in parts (coilovers / turbo / STi seats / Exhaust etc). I think you should be able to achieve around £1500 ish for it but defo over a grand. If you can then break it maybe.. You could probably get a silver bonnet for £50 ish so may be worthwhile sourcing one and then selling.

If you break it let me know. That driver's seat is the same colour as mine but better condition (mine has a tear and hole in the right bolster (is that the word?)).

No point breaking as not worth much in parts. I'd say put it up for £1800 and go from there. The bonnet will let it down.

Personal i think if it was standard with no mods be worth more.

Cheers guys thanks for all the advice I've not got time to break her and to be honest wouldn't want to I see less and less of these every year so wouldn't wanna contribute to extinction of classics lol

Lol good on you, looks in generally good condition. Think its stupid breaking a decent car, unless its been crashed or rusted to death. Classic wrx parts are cheap as chips.

I'd say £1500. You don't get running Imprezas for less than £1k.

Seems to be a jump in the miles, should be able 150k not 104k. Is it still in kms?

Scoobyshane87

What do you mean by jump in the miles dude and I just put down what the numbers said on the clocks lol pretty sure it's miles il have a check after work

Use an online MOT checker to check mileages from previous MOT's. I imagine the clocks have been wound back at some point or its had a clock change...

Scoobyshane87

Well I've owned the car nearly 4 years I think it is and in that time it was off the road for 2 and a bit years so would explain any abnormalities in that time other than that I've been had on I'm guessing what site did you use if you don't mind me asking

I use a phone app...

In may 2009 the car was showing 127,000 on the clock, a year later it showed 81,000

Maybe the chap bought the fancy clocks that it has fitted.

Well the term done like a kipper comes to mind really il have to make a note of it on the sale advert also I wanted to ask as well for some advice on the engine crankcase mainly for some reason mine has some webbing type crosshatch design on certain parts of the engine but my mates scooby don't is there any reasoning or is it just a normal thing some do some don't type thing

dj219957

it will have the closed deck engine

Scoobyshane87

good thing to mention or not worth a mention??? as you guys have probably guessed I have no where near the knowledge( if any ) you guys have I saw the car drove it it went bwaaaa ptshhhh I bought it a bit star struck at how fast loud and well it handled now it's time to sell it in finding out I might of been a little bit silly lol

Brun

Closed deck engine = goooooood

Yes this I'm afraid. Worth pointing out in your advert. Always worth checking old mots for any car you buy. I was looking to buy an impreza with low miles, until I checked old mots, had 2 advisors on mots about chassis rust. So I left it.
