hmmmm no red top, but STi clocks
i think he needs a back hander right on the cheek
Hate it when people make out thier cars are something they actually arent, must just be for purely sale purposes, surely the winning bidder from the 14 that are bidding will go an haggle to the fact its not a STi i would!!!!

It's not eBay, it's the ******** who sell on eBay (present company excluded).

Have you seen the engine bay picture? Looks like the engines melted

That has to be the worst looking engine ever to grace a subaru. what a disgusting lump. the car looks quite clean but he wouldnt know an RA if if came up and ran over his chav head.

can't spell..lives in a dump and drives a tacked up impreza. and some dumb shmuck is offering a swap on an m3!! chances are hes just as bad and it's a 316 ''wiv da bodykit n' mirrorz bruv''.

The TMIC is black as well? I thought the UK had black ICs and the STIs had silver?

you are probably right but ignorance is not an excuse...you owe the buyer a duty of care to ensure you are selling what you say you are. Check out all the geeks online that will help you out
