Im interested in purchasing a scooby and have found this for sale. Im online trying to get a quick insurance quote and i need to know what type of scooby this is and also on the quote is has asked me to select a tracking device ?? what shal i select ?



Help much appreciated !

 

Now would that be a Catalunya I wonder.......depends what the year is

 

Afternoon

 

It may not have a tracking device fitted. Cant tell from the picture but it looks modified. Looks like an early impreza maybe a 94/95/96 just by the front end. If it says WRX or STI in the advert is a grey import ie. not a UK spec car. It also looks like it has modifications, those wheels arent standard and that wing looks after market. Soory to be vague but cant tell a lot from the picture. Any more details to go on description ??.

 

It is hard to tell from that image, what details do you have about it?

 

Sorry guys heres the info !

K reg . EW. Clifford alarm, R/L, rally trim, alloy sumpguard, induction kit . 17 in wheels, new Pirreli P.zeros, big rear spoiler, a/con, c/control, groved brakes . 70,000 miles . Bargain, p/x.

 

That will be a WRX or possibly an STi 1 from the rear spoiler, but it is hard to tell.

 

K reg? Would that make it an import?

 

Yup that would make it a 1993, UK Cars became avaliable 1994.

 

Ok thanks, what shall i put as tracking advice so i can get an idea on price for insurance ??

im 23 in march with full no claims since i was 17 living in Essex

 

You want a pro active tracking device like Tracker Monitor.

 

Its a wrx £5395..

 

Thanks

 

Does this car sound ok to you guys ?? Whats the average cost of running ?? will there be many probs with it etc with that mileage ?

 

Early cars didnt have the big spoilers so thats an aftermarket one. Could be an STi4 mid level but looks bigger and the side bits look thinner.

At 23 with an import modified car you are looking at 1500 - 2000 minimum could be a lot more full comp depending on ncb, postcode, kept overnight etc.

worth reading this to get any idea on what other people are paying :

Ok thanks mate, i just proceded with a quick quote on tesco and received a price of £1000 !

 

Oh yes they did Chris

The STi 1 had the hoop type rear spoiler.

 

Yep but its a WRX

 

But when I answered the question we have not determined that 100%

 

Could be an STi 1 spoiler though . Worth checking whether the car is an STi or WRX as it will affect insurance and checking whether thats a factory fit spoiler as that will affect insurnace as well.

and have you seen their fuel card, buy petrol, pay 40 days later.
how good is that!

 

Doubt my car would last 40 days on NUL fuel

 

Coor its not easy looking into getting a scooby is it hee hee

 

whats NUL fuel?

or am i a fool?

and i only use optimax anyway, the nearest tesco is 30miles away no good.

And how much is the monitor tracker?

 

NUL - normal unleaded fuel ie 95 RON
SUL - super unleaed fule ie 97 RON (rumours of BP beign 98 RON)
Optimax - shells SUL fuel 98.6 RON

I would not run an impreza turbo on anything less than SUL, my import lives on optimax and octane booster.

Greg seriously worth reading this document if you are after a scoob :

Becareful which tracker package you go for as some arent insurnace approved.

cheers

Actually if its a 1993 it cant be an STI1

Unless its a late 1993 and actually an MY94

This is well complicated .
