I am picking up my new scooby 2moz it is a 2004 sti with 25000 on the clock. the engine bay is so clean you would be happy eatin your dinner off it. it has got 344bhp with a print-out to prove the whole car inside and out looks brand new. it has dccd deffi gauges 18" pro drive wheels mesh on the front all black sti interior. and i am paying 10000 for it. before anyone says it i do not like the hawk-eye. O and it is world-rally blue.

thanx andy........

 

possably slightly over priced,ide have thought about 8.5 - 9k but if its as good as you say then it may be worth the money especially with that millage

Subaru : 2005 impreza sti type uk example 2005

 

Price is in the right ball park so why do you think you have been done.

Found a WR1 for the same money although the mileage is a lot higher.
Auto Trader UK - SUBARU IMPREZA 2.0 WR1 STi 4dr**DR+1 OWNER**88K FSSH**

 

I didn't say I have been done I was just asking peoples opinions and the example you have shown me I personally wouldn't be interested at £8000 TBH.....but each to their own I suppose......

 

if the car is as nice as you say it is then i would say the price isn't too bad.you get what you pay for imo.

 

Remember buy with your head and not you *****.

Price depends on what the lowest he will sell it for and the most you'll willing to pay for it

Seriously though for a 2004JDM STi could be £7-11K

£10K, seems top end but about right for the description

IMHO

Tony

 

cheers m8!

 

assuming its totally mint, and is spotless 10k is ok i guess

wiley

 

Right, a bit complicated this mate - the car is not a JDM it is a UK car that got exported to the Isle of Man where it stayed for 2 years and then came back - I have ALL service history to back this up and all tax-discs. But like a JDM it has a DCCD and a 6-speed box. I think it was meant to be going to Malta but for some reason got sold in the UK at its first registration. A bit confusing I know but it is by far the best Subaru I have seen for the money on the market.

Now chew on that......

Cheers

 

If you paid too much, why ask on here after the fact ?

I paid full retail for mine, but back in 2002 I could afford it.

As stated, if you are happy then get on with enjoying it !

IMHO

Valuations here are sedom that accurate, because everyone is in denial about the dumbling worth of their car. I have little to do with Imprezas now, beyond having one laid up in my garage, so I cant help either. Id go as far as to say that its a damned good price for the vendor to achieve in todays market.

 

For one if you read what I put properly I "pick" up tomorrow and hand over cash - I haven't actually paid for it yet but it will be cash NOT finance.

For two, if you read a bit further down you would see I was just after peoples opinions.

For three, I earn 40k plus a year so I can afford it mate.....IMHO

But thanks for the info

 

Do you have a link you could post up?

 

Why ask for peoples opinions only to give them smart answers when you dont like what they have to say. Settle down and enjoy the forum before you put folk off trying to help you in the future.

Cheers
Melly

 

is there any need?

 

yes you did in the title of your first post , and also your response to dunx's reply was a bit stupid as you never said you where paying when you pick your car up only that you where picking it up! You seem to have an attitude my friend when people where trying to help/give their opinion which is what you ask for.

Aaron

 

As u will see I am a new guy to this forum and also to Subaru so I can see your point when you say is there any need - but when I received such a ars*y comment from someone I class as "experienced" in this field what do you expect me to do. Treat others the way you want to be treated and think about how you reply to people cause I found your comment very be-littling. As I said at the beginning of this I am new and just wanted constructive advice not condesending remarks.....

Thanks

Andy

 

Bet you wish you'd never asked now

 

YOUR NOT JOKING......

 

20 posts and you've had it. Lol

I don't consider any of the above comments arsey, You just took them the wrong way IMO.

 

You're, not your. We are spelling and grammar pedants too!

 

Reading between the lines Andy I think you know you have paid or about to pay too much.
The guys are trying to let you down easy and your getting your **** out.
The bottom has well and truly fell out of the performance car market, and you should be bidding your seller in the nuts.
Advice good or bad is freely given on here, make of it what you will and grow up.

 

"You are / you're getting your **** out..."

 

To answer the original question - Pull out of the sale, the **** has gone from this market. There is choice a plenty and you will find the same car, same spec car for 2 grand less.

 

I profusely offer my apologies.

 

RIGHT TOOK YOUR COMMENTS ON BOARD NOW.
Lets start a fresh and drop it you dont think its arsey but i do.
END OF.

 

Andy

with all the greatest respect if you want to gain some respect and helpful advice from the people on here who are a fountain of knowledge, then just a friendly caution, I would tone down the a tad and up the when given some good advice. Like Melly said, if you have a good attitude people will help.

As for whether you have had your pants yanked down on the price, well the price is always only what you think it is worth. You obviously, by your description, thought it was worth 10K and so are prepared to pay that.

as for your last comment about earning 40K, I suggest you make friends with Matteboy on here He will guide you in the ways of finance

 

Well done AndyF.
The bitter taste of humble pie...........

 

Matteeboy is considerably better off than Andy and he has more money saved too. He is also fitter, stronger, harder; although he may have a smaller ****!

 

But we dont know if Andy has a set of PJ's do we
