Default Whats this wrx worth to buy (bottom end gone)!

Hi guys, just a quicky.

After selling my pride and joy a few months back im ready for another. A cheap one at that though. Im looking at a my95 wrx with some nice 17 inch alloys. Needs little paint here and there and the bottom end has gone. WHAT SHOULD I PAY?. ALso what sort of money am i looking at to get the engine sorted, is it gonna be 2k + .

Thanx

Wouldn't give more than £750 for it, goner cost £1500-2K for a rebuild and it's only ever going to be worth £2.5-3K

only worth buying and stripping, or buying sticking a 2nd hand bag of ****e engine of ebay and then flogging to no one you know!!!!

there only worth what the buyer wants to pay, i bought a white, i love the color, color coded etc, wrx, my95, few lovely located dials, all proper job, 60k, paid £4k

if its a color people want its worth what they want to pay, i hate green,silver,red and blue so that left me with black or white........

when ur limited to color,the choice is limited some what LOL

good luck with whatever u choose

I'm up against the same problem but from the other direct!

I have just blown the bottom end of my 95 RA and its worth bugger all it would seem.... 4-5k working so broken it seems to be 1-2k.

I would really like 2-2.5k for it but I cant see that happening
