Didn't realize that anyone actually sold their cars on EBay Why would you when they sell for pennies.

To be fair, although they are one of the most desirable subaru's out there, they suck fuel like no tomorrow and at £1.20/litre thats a big factor on a car with a purchase price of under £10k + credit problems that are currently around..

Good for buyers though, I suspect we'll be seeing a few more of these bargains over the coming period, don't even want to think about what my old wagon is going to be worth come sale time.

What mileage is on it? Is it on Pistonheads/Autotrader?

Cheers,

It's the standard UK one owner Imprezas which make all the money these days. Anything off standard isn't wanted.

An immaculate one owner P1 with history and sensible miles will still attract good money.

Correct I just payed over £12000 for a 24800 mile P1 on ebay. It was local so went to see it first, had 3 previous owners though.

wow sold mine for 11k last october, 84k on the clock with sensible mods,
the thing is now i have a uk turbo with 130k on but with a engine fitted at 120k, so guess it will be worth 3k if i am lucky may be time to get a 330ci as a run around and fit a 6 speed box and 2.5ltr lump!!!

P1s do tend to blow up though after a while. They rest very hard against the ECU's knock control indeed as the ignition map is STI 5/6 standard.

I wouldn't buy one without budgeting for an engine. I like the suspension though.

So why don't peeps take advantage of market conditions? Buy one at knock down price, spend say £1500 on LPG conversion, and end up with a nice fast motor that effectively does 35/40 mpg with little or no loss of performance? dl

Did it actually sell at that price or was that the max bid? Wish they were that price when I bought my wrx last year as I would currently be the proud owner of a P1

John as someone who knows alot about mapping would you recomend a remap of a standard P1 to make it a bit safer? would it gain any power or would it loose some? I say standard but I may fit a P1 upgraded backbox and a fuel pump but thats all so pretty much standard.
