Way over priced, can't see anyone paying that much for it. Perhaps £7k tops or he's best of parting it.

Proper sleeper that. But agree with the above, he's not gonna get the money that he wants.

Nice spec. Worth more than 7k all day long. Broken it'd bring in at least 7k in parts.

Turbo inlet hose looks gash mind and no mention of a 6 speed or PPG on it

Oil change every 1000 miles! Wow

switchable modes sounds good, like the sound of that! Almost like a non Eco mode and a very non Eco mode!

Not being funny but it's a WRX at the end of the day and no mention of uprated gearbox or brakes!

Apparently you can pick up 500bhp R33's for about £10k now!

It's s tad over priced IMO. I reckon its worth 9-10k on a good day if someone really wants it. There's a few things I don't think have been done satisfactory to the way I'd want it, but it looks sound enough. Only a viewing, test drive and a chat with the owner would confirm how much of the claimed spec etc was true.
