After a 5 year break from Subaru ownership I am now looking to get back in to a decent 2 door GC8 but it seems there is mostly dealer owned P1’s and R’s that are over priced and there is a serious lack of cars for sale from private sellers. Is any members on here considering selling up in the near future?

Prices for Type Rs in Japan are eye watering now too. Was inevitable really.

What are you willing to spend on one @ L.J.F??

Harlow Imports have a white Type R with just 32k on it, 18grand though.

Here’s the link.

17500 me *****

thats lovely

yeah I’ve seen that on Facebook and it looks very clean but the cat c on it puts me off tbh

thats a really nice type R but I don’t want to spend 18k for a garage queen

Yes agree, very strong money and like you say, it’ll just be an ornament sadly. This needs to to to a collector imo.

I’ve actually been looking at the black type R Hurst cars has on their site at the moment but I’m not sure I want a black car plus the high miles is a bit off putting. I know they used to be rated highly on this forum years ago for sourcing and only selling decent cars so I take it that’s still the case?

Still on the look out for a clean type R if anyone knows of any ��

What’s a decent Type R worth these days? Mine is locked up safe and sound in my heated garage. Having not used it for a couple of years I may pop it back on the road later this year. For information it’s a V4 running around 360bhp with a 6 speed ‘box, bigger brakes etc. All in very good condition. Just curious to values, not planning on selling it but who knows what’s around the corner.

No photos at the moment as it’s buried in the garage. It’s just a mica black Type R, with 18” PFF7 wheels in a red/bronze colour.

The only cars selling seem to be sub 11k or open auction on Ebay, I think the economic uncertainty with brexit looming is playing a part as P1’s aren’t shifting either unless keenly priced.
