Default RASP cars, Heaton. Anyone dealt with them

Wondering if anyone has had any dealings with RASP cars, Heaton

They have a couple of things I may well be interested in, it would mean a 4 hour drive there so would rather not waste time if thier stock is poor etc.

Cheers

Prices are on the up tho I think.ive got a pre face lift,tastefully modified that I'm considering selling and I'm wanting between 8.5 and 9k for mine,only problem with these are not many people know what they are so the market is very small.mine is on the upper end of the mileage of most advertised but ive seen similar miles and spec with people wanting a lot more.

You may sit on it at them prices, there was one on fb wanting 11k for a 04 plate and now reduced to 10k, it's been on for ages and bumped regularly, I see it as a 8k max car tbh.
It's worth what someone is willing to pay though. The rasp one at 10k is perfectly priced for a nice low mileage example, no one can accuse them of trying to make a big mark up.
And I bet that's what the op has his heart on, the only thing that's horrible on it, is the rear bumper spoiler

I'm not really on Facebook bud, if you can link it or point the seller in my direction I'd owe you some beer tokens

Viewed a couple of cars from rasp in the past

genine guy, imports some stuff and buys some uk spec scoobs, sells from home so not a traditional dealer garage setup etc but his prices are cheaper than those with shop fronts and cars are not bad at all, did me a deal on a nice uk Sti couple of years ago, he's been doing scoobs and mainly scoobs for a good few years now so he is well worth a visit as he knows the subaru market well

good luck with it.

Cheers Ryan. 8 hour round trip and came home with cash instead of a car. Raf seems a genuinely nice guy just that particular car wasn't for me.
