been looking on their website and saw the 54 plate sti, tried sweet talking the missus round and by the time she said yes it had sold, the search continues...

 

welcome mate, if you looked at a 54 plate stretch that little bit further and get an 05 sti, while some people might disagree they tweeked the 05 model just silly little things but it is slightly better i read up alot before i got mine, hope this helps

 

Definitely 05 if you can stretch

Spec C geometry,
DCCD-A,
Enlarged hubs,
RE070's,
Better dials (I think).

 

pushed my luck as far as i can my original budget was 10k, the 54 sti was going for 16k i can't stretch it any further,

 

you could get an 05 sti for that mate, i'm sure someone will back me up prob a bit cheaper( the 16k)

 

but its got to be the right one and i'm looking at p/xing an 05 plate new focus aswell

 

Hell, for £16k you might get an 06 Hawkeye STi, but certainly a WRX. My mate just got one for £16.5k from a main dealer. 05 is a certain at that money.

 

i don't know if this is any help or not but i got put in touch with a guy through people i did work for who's a car locater, i told him exactly what i was looking for and what price i was willing to pay and i also wanted to part xchange my 03 wrx, a day later he rang me up and said he'd found me one(what i've got now)it was on the forcourt in a subaru dealer for 18.5k he got them down to 16k. he is a genuine guy who WILL get you the best deal he can, if your interested at all pm me and i can give you his email phone number etc, he is nothing to do with me never met him only spoke on the phone but a few people i know have used him now and have only good things to say

 

finally found one that i'm happy with, 02 bugeye and it didn't break the bank, pick it up next saturday,
