air con
Full service history
remaining warranty
18 inch prodrive 0z titanium alloys

Is that a reasonable price?
Many thanks for any comments

Sounds a fair price to me.
The OZ alloys are £1K alone, without tyres.
Factory lowered by 20mm? Sound like the Prodrive spring kit. Should be 25mm though.
Sounds a good price for the age, mileage, and extra's

Sounds like a very good price to me - I paid just under £18,000 for my 53 reg, completely standard STI Type UK (no PPP, 18" alloys or lowering) with very similar mileage a couple of months ago, but that was from a Subaru dealer.
One bit of advice is to check that you don't have any problems with the PPP from an insurance perspective before buying...

Thanks guys,
Part of me thought the price sounded a little "too good" though I don't have that much experience in the Scooby market.
I will make sure that the prospective buyer does a check with the insurance on a PPP car.
How can I be sure it has the PPP kit? An exhaust is my first guess. Is there any other tell tale sign?
Many thanks for all the advice.

Steven,
They do exist.... I bought a 2nd hand very late 02 Scoob (latest shape) with PPP, Prodrive Wheels and Prodrive Springs for £17300 in March this year. Car was totally mint with same kind of mileage on.
Good luck
Regards,
Shaun.

Shaun,
Thanks, I am now inspired with the confidence that this car may actually be as good as it states in the advert.
Cheers and just FYI I will report back a couple of lines on the car some time later tonight.

Got my 03 STi no PPP Type UK with no mods but did have extended warranty, higher mileage, for a little over £16K nearly three months ago, but if i had have seen your one I would have jumped at it.
Good luck, hope its not to good to be true,
Jerry

Im sure I seen an 04 sti ppp in the for sale section for 17500.
The 04 has a slightly different body kit and a square boot lock
usually they are pretty well looked after from a club or community

Thanks for all your help guys.
We went and visited the car last night. Everything was in order. A couple of minor paint scratches otherwise a very very nice condition motor car. Doesn't look like its been scrimped on in the slightest.
We walked away having struck a deal at £17,250.
An awful lot of car for the price and both seller and purchaser happy.
one question. Why would the rear shocks be red instead of the standard ones? Something to do with a clicky/noisey rear shock that subaru wouldn't admit to? Does that make sense?
Cheers!
