Ok folks haven't been around here for ages, just wondered who’s had their car the longest,
i bought My. MY99 in sept 2003 and still have it, surely I should get a longevity award
16 years and 6 months

 

Welcome back! Any pictures of when you got it and now?

 

Hi mate yeh I do have , I will have a dig around and upload a couple it’s in quarantine atm lol

 

I also have owned my car for 16 years now...are they handing out awards?.SJ.

 

Can’t be many more than 16 years, think I’ve thought about selling more times than it’s got miles lol, yep still got it

 

any pictures?

 

 

Lovely mate, can I ask what you paid for it back then?

 

9.5 k with 57000 miles on it,
it has a full sti 2006 interior in it now, can’t part with it lol

 

Absolutely fantastic mate, credit to you. in 2003 I was 20 and I seen Subarus about but could never afford them, I actually sat in 1 in carcraft around 2003, a blobeye sti and it was surreal. At the age of 30 I owned my first which was a imported wrx and I’ve had 4 sti’s since.....2 spec ds and 2 blobeye stis...absolutely love them

 

Was that a recent picture?.SJ.

 

No mate , but it don’t look much different tbh, only done 120,000 in 21 years

 

You kept her well.SJ.

 

We bought our blob WRX in June 2003 couldn't afford the STI at the time, as we were both only 23 and insurance was bad enough for the wrx

There's someone else on here who has a one owner classic from something like 1997, but I can't remember who it is

 

Beat you by 2 months

93 WRX

 

SUPERB.SJ.

 

I had mine since 2001..these were taken a few weeks ago

 

bighead,your car looks lovely,i cannot believe how much superb Subaru’s are still with their owners after so Long.SJ.

 

Rossyboy.Lovely car. My first impreza was a K reg WRX in black. Loved it.

 

yeah , although is "looks" good ...my car was actually due in the bodyshop for a full respray this week (a few dings and sorts), but the government put a stop to that !

 

Hasn't Lord Harding had his classic from new?

 

12 years here, not as long as some of you guys but still going strong

 

Keep em coming guys, some lovely old Scoobs there.

 

I’d love to get mine resrayed now, what were you quoted out of interest if you don’t mind me asking !

 

13 years for my blob

 

all depends on where you go, had quote of £4k+, to £ 2.5+, but the paint work on my car is very very good for the age of the car ...so less work/prep for the bodyshop, so yours might be different , just get a few quotes from trusted bodyshops and go from there .

Also the P1 is increasing in value everyday ...it will offset the respray cost when /if I do sell it .

 

14 years ownership of the same Daily 95 WRX here

 

Oh man, these threads are the worst. They always make me want to chop the impreza in and get a classic...

Anyone want to buy a one careful owner, 46k miles, 2003 WRX? Never raced or rallied


It's not so good in the interior comfort department, but the shell is rust free
