SA52NUB <<<< looking for any history
I bought this car about a month ago (everything ok just now) i was just looking for any idea of its history
the car has full service history upto 67k and is due a service just now.
what i want to know is if the timing belt has been done
it has S&S subaru service history up to just under 40k then its next 2 services were done at halleys garage, milngavie at 49k and 59k
i phoned S&S and they said they never done the timing belt so its down to halleys garage if they have done it , phoned them and they say they have no record of the car (could mean it had a private plate on it)
any help appreciated
thanks
Andy

Ignore anything Halleys have to say about your car, they are useless
They tried to void my warranty as they said I had changed the springs on my car to some sort of aftermarket ones, I challenged them saying I had fitted prodrive springs to which they replied that prodrive sprins were blue and mine were red so I must have some sort of dodgy aftermarket springs fitted.
I then reminded them that I drove an sti and that Prodrive springs for the STI were red, I also reminded them that I had actually bought the springs from them before telling them to **** off and going back down to S&S, only reason for going there was that it was alot closer than S&S. Needless to say I have never set foot back in Halleys)
Anyways If S&S dont have any record of the timing belt being changed I would go ahead and change it.
If you are still looking for some info on the car it might be worth posting on Scottish Scoobies which is part of SIDC or Ayrshire Scoobies
