Tend to disagree on this comment. Its a UK car at some pont they All will have rust unless an import then always dry stored but the UK cars would have most likely been bought and used as a daily so will have had winter use and any scoob that's seen a UK winter with start to corrode. But looking at the advert its mechanically pamperd I guess what he or she is meaning. Has some proper parts by the look of it not your usual ebay built motor. My wrx is mega looked after with a lot of parts but on but I've recently found one sill is starting to bubble its just the joy of a UK car.

Still a silly price considering the hassle and expense required to fix the rust issues.

There are 3 kinds of enthusiast,

1. Uninterested in how good it looks but mechanically maintains it to highest standard
2. uninterested in hows its maintained as long as its polished up OK
3. Maintained mechanically and cosmecticlaly

But the rust issues on this (and any other Impreza with rusty sills and arches) aren't just minor cosmetic issues that can be lived with or easily rectified.

Edit - Just noticed it's now reduced to £9,995 so a bit more realistic given the rust issues, but still not exactly a great price given the work and expense required to sort it.
