Unless I am missing something that looks like a standard UK Hawk STi. at £10.5K it's at the high end (ish) but it depends on what warranty is on offer and what service history it has.
I've got a Bugeye which I have messed around with and is at about 400 odd BHP but I have Driven a Hawk STi with PPP and they do go well !!

Ok. Well I bought it. Actually put a deposit down. Got it with new front tyres and 6months warranty. I wasn't sure. But found the previous owners mobile number on a recipt and gave him a call. He told me everything about the car. Smiths had only had it 3weeks and not touched it.
Next weekend I become a scooby owner

Yea drove it for quite a while, the dealer gave me and the old man the keys and we went out for almost 30min.
It's not better than the evo, but no way is it worse. The throttle seemed a lot more responsive and compared the the MR the turbo spooled up quicker, also the shifter is a lot shorter as standard and you can shift quicker. There didn't seem to be as much of an even power delivery though seemed more lower end than in say 5th or 6th.
Obviously after driving it for a few weeks i will be able to see the differences.
