Your probably looking at an imported WRX around the 93-96 year of manufacture for that price, possibly a tidy sti if your lucky though dont think there's much difference between the two.

Just got myself a WRX last week, 265bhp roughly and loving every minute. by the way I used to have bikes, well if you call 125's bikes but too damn dangerous.

Whatever you get, DO PLEASE get insurance quotes b4 you buy, and so avoid what could be a nasty shock:

Imports are dearer and more difficult to insure, but more powerful. They can also have problems with reliability if not remapped for UK fuel, or run on octane booster, yet another expense.
