Well if she's got the dynamat in the back that's definately one of my old Imprezas. I bought it off a friend of mine in West Wales a few years ago and although i am a dealer i kept it for around 6 months as at the time she was immaculate!
The mileage is correct as she was imported with only 9 or 10k on her. I haven't seen it in a while now but it was mint when it left me and was one of the cars i wish i'd kept!

No, i liked her just the way she was . The previous owner fitted the bonnet, wheels, induction, spoiler, blue carpet and dynamat. I only had her serviced and cleaned.

See post after mine !

I'm far too poor to be running two bug-eye STI's....

Sadly !

dunx

P.S. I suspect it may have been "down-spec'd" for some reason.... still a pretty thing !

yeah was a nice looking car had a couple of dents and a scuff on the bk bumper, i very nearly bought it. the lack of proof for the mods and lack of history put me off. thought it was a bit pricey with no history
