Depends if you can live with the Bugeye look!

Is it the Sport/WRX or STi? Spec might help if you want an evaluation.

jay2481

How many miles - Seems like a very good price to me - I presume it has mega miles!!! - Has it been serviced every 6 months?

Paul3446

Did they do classics on a 51 plate?

jay2481

55k on it and ive checked it all out with the dvla and its cosher. it was registered in september 2001 and it has full subaru history. 10 service stamps in the book and serviced every 6 months

Sounds like you got yourself a real bargain there.

i think so to i think there might be 1 or 2 bits that need doing though. the brakes are **** for the car so i will need to change them but when i9 do brake sometimes the car pulls to the left. also when i accelerate it veers of to the left although this has only happened once. any ideas?

Paul3446

So is it a classic or a bugeye?

jay2481

its the classic shape.

Paul3446

How strange, I was sure the last classic was very early 2001 on a Y plate.

I stand corrected (said the man in the orthopaedic shoe)!

GazTheHat

I've only seen one '51 plate classic, when i was hunting, it was a ex-demo car. I too thought they stopped at a 'Y'.

GC8

Yes; especially Mica Red 'Wagons (and a few P1s from the second over-priced build too I think). IM had quite a lot left unsold long after the New Age cars had gone on sale.

Surely you wouldn't call a classic a face lift?

You haven't said the spec, Sport models aren't worth as much as Sti's for example. How do you expect us to say if you have got a good or bad deal?

jay2481

its the turbo 2000 awd it is totally standard apart from a scorpian s/s exhaust
