Default ADVICE - REPAIR OR UPGRADE? IMPREZA CLASSIC VS BUGEYES

Greetings everyone.

Kind of drawing on fond childhood’s memories, I have bought a cheap (and not running) 1995 Impreza Compact Wagon 2.0 GT (red, blue cloth interior, rounded dash, 15 inch wheels, 211 hp) for which I have been recently quoted about 8.5k Euros in mechanical repairs plus an estimated 3k Euros (at least) in body work.

For the same budget or less, I see I may actually source a ready to drive 2001-2005 Bugeye WRX wagon 218 hp or 2.5 WRX wagon 230 hp with a mileage between 100k and 170k km.

I would be grateful to have from anyone who knows the models, Classic and Bugeye / 2.5 (Hawkeye?), a feedback on the cars and an advice, if the Classic is actually more fun to drive and worth the effort of repairing it, or if I should better put my (hard earned) money in a later model.

Finally, does anyone know a good Subaru specialist in the Edinburgh area worth contacting?

Thanks in advance and cheers everyone!
