1995 SUBARU IMPREZA TURBO 4WD GREEN on eBay (end time 03-Mar-10 11:43:33 GMT)

RA Dunk

looks like it was built by Alan Jeffery he would probably know who owns it

SunnySideUp

Price mistake, someone has accidentally added a '0' on the end ...... of course, it should be £1795!!

Do you reckon they will bite at £1500? might be worth me buying it as a toy, at that?

Jamz3k

the alloys look like halfords specials.

Ste98Turbo

Think all you will get offering £1500 is alot of abuse

Mr Wagon

Price could be right, below taken from the advert.

spent over £50,000 with recipts to prove

BULLITT

I'm pretty sure that car has been in Japanese Performance magazine as well.

I have seen it in the flesh & it is an awesome bit of kit, the owner is a nice chap too.

Jek

Read about this car in Total Impreza a couple of years back, its some machine.

Ste RB5138

Oh yes, I remember it in that issue...I cant see anyone paying £18 k though!

PMSL Doubt anyone will pay £18k however if he put it up for £8-10k

TX.

LUCKO

Looks a good spec of car, still unsure as to whether it will sell for anywhere near £18k though, £10k, maybe a bit more?

jd5217

There is an article on this car in Japanese Performance Feb 2010.

It does come with a set of track wheels aswell.

Very quick car.

Course the car is worth what he is asking,im sure if any of you guys spent 50k modding a car you would want more than 8-10k after all its a proven car that has featured in a mag.

SunnySideUp

Plenty of people on here spend lots of money on their cars and realise (when they try to sell) what they have actually done is to reduce the value!!

OK, so he spent £50,000 on a Subaru .... does that fact not make you want to run away? He is clearly a freak

wrxcook

I was looking at the for sale section in a rally mag offshore lately and the cheapest Subaru which was a classic was £86000 that had one seat a roll cage,

SunnySideUp

That means that mine, a one owner, must be worth around £100,000 - sorted

The Zohan

for such a 'famous' car seems a little odd that it is on fleabay. is it advertised elsewhere, pistonheads, jap performace mags, fleabay is not usually where you go for specialist and one-off builds is it?!?

Best of luck to the seller, not sure fleabay will get him what he wants though.

Gaz7612

Just been reading the advert is it a 2.0 or a 2.5?
It says both in the advert!!!!

Ste98Turbo

Bet he would get 10k just for that engine to be fair to him.

nice car and spec but 18k is a little over the top for that i would say around 11k mark tops would crack it. if he brakes it it he might get around 13-14k max. never the less good luck to him you never know.


mus

for 18k i would want it in a better colour than green! yuk

GMballistic

Sounds like it's a 2.0litre to me. The only mention of 2.5 is the swirl pot and nothing to do with the engines capacity.
Not worth the money he's asking though IMO. For £50,000 spent that Scooby still looks a little cheap to me especially with those alloys but the engine looks good.

SunnySideUp

This is £50,000 ... and won't lose much either - will make you feel like a King and have girls flocking around you (and I don't mean the 14 year olds that the Impreza would attract)

http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/img...?id=1068378501

Simply madness to spend that money on an Impreza - just buy a proper car in the first place and be done with it!

belliott69

iTrader: (3)

problem is if you buy the ferrari, you must feel like you are too restrained to buy the more fun lambo which is what i'd buy if i had the money.

the impreza is overpriced but there's no harm in trying, but 10k seems more about the mark, even then its still green so that'd put me off all the time.

scixer6r

Ok then you lot win,green isnt the best colour so for that reason im out.Still think its worth more than 10k though(with a respray & descent set of alloys)

Proby521

iTrader: (1)

Nice spec engine, but those wheels are funkin horrible! As for 18K, well I can see where his valuation has come from, but can't see it fetching it.

Its a standard fit gt30 and itr makes 550bhp?? I have never seen one make that much power before

Ste98Turbo

If it doesnt attract 14 year old girls then its no good
