Well if its got its 21 service stamps then probably around 10k, bad ones are 6k now, decent 50k'ers are around 8-9k.

But bear in mind, that you'll have to get the engine rebuilt in circa 40k time.

Has he had it EcuTek'd i.e. e remap on a fuel of his choice to make the engine run as safe as possible?

Not true. The only Subaru that will hold its value from now on will be the 22B. Was on a car collectors website a few months ago and the 22B was one of only 11 cars thats value was going to go up over the next few year.

So a low mileage Series Mcrae will continue to depreciate? A P1 with low miles will become 2k one day.
Don't talk wet, ALL cars increase in value over the years, its just a matter of keeping them in good, original condition and keeping the mileage down.

I can't see the price of the P1 being anywhere near as resilient as the 22B, looking at what I paid for my Type R three years ago when I was also looking at P1's, it does seem that the prices of P1's have fallen a hell of alot quicker than the price of the Type R's.

That's because Type R's hit rock bottom before the P1, the P1 is getting to that point now and, mark my words, will slowly increase as will the Type R.

Listen mate, these are not my words (if you read my post properly).When you drive a car off the showroom floor it starts loosing value. Sure my moms 1303 Beetle is worth more now than when it was released but with fuel costs going up and electric cars in demand only the very special will increase value. But, I am not here to argue, collecting cars is not my field of expertise. As we stand now a RB5, P1 and the great 22B still cost less than the day they was released.
