A slight tad over my budget but if it is as clean as it looks in the pictures i may just pull the trigger.

Any suggestions or things to look out for.

Cheers all

agreed over priced for the year. Asking way to much money regardless of the low mileage.

I have been looking for so long and to be fair nothing comes close to this with mileage regardless of the price. I am willing to pay a bit extra for something special and hodl for life

If its the right car for you and you plan on keeping it, can afford it ect. Then go for it.
You could end up buying a different one and spending loads to get it to where you want it to be.

Best post on here ^^^^ if you like it and you have the funds go and buy it. Just get it up on a ramp, go over the underside with a microscope, low mileage UK used cars can still rot. Best of luck.

Go and view the car buddy, have a chat and you may get them to come down a little, if it doesn’t feel right walk, you have nothing to lose. Nur Specis very loud, long journeys are a nightmare with them, well imo they are.

Mine went on the rear arches, just where they meet the back bumper. Had it repaired, but was told that it's not unknown for the rust to go right through. But I'm glad to see that my car is now worth so much - and I thought the person asking £10k last year was being otpimistic.

About as loud as you can get . On the motorway it drones a lot. Depends if you like you neighbours or want lots of noise.

Ive got one on my Type r and I love it

The price is what it's worth to you. I think a good S202 is probably similar money, but good Imprezas are getting harder to find...As regards the Nur spec exhaust, I had one on my first classic and loathed it..Absolutely hated it...It created an artificial sound and was obnoxious most of the time..It droned like hell on the motorway and was too loud inside the car..It sounded like a cheap cherry bomb...It was the first mod i did on that particular car..got rid and fitted a Magnex iirc..That sounded great, whereas the Blitz think sounds like a Halfords back box..
