I know I know - another what's it worth thread.
Seriously though I have no idea where Scooby values are right now for classics and looking in the for sale section doesn't help as they seem to be all over the place.
My car is a UK Turbo 2000 in Mica red on an X plate.
It is a 2 owner vehicle with a genuine 51K on the clock
Has the following mods:
AGX shocks
H & R lowering springs
Blitz Nur SPec R exhaust
STI7 seats
K Sport brakes front and rear
STI V6 front lip colour cioded
Rota GRAs 17 with Michelin Pilot Sports - 2000 miles on them at most
No rust on it at all including the rear arches.
Any ideas on price. Would I get more than £2K?
Not convinced about selling but nor am I about keeping it either!

2k is cheap IMO. Think to the right buyer it could fetch 3k to 3.5k+ especially with such low miles & owners. Quick sale maybe 2.5k but personally I'd hang out for a good price as decent classics are hard to find!

I have been surprised at how cheap some good ones seem to go for.

At least £3k with those mods and would be a cheap car at that, the sum total of mods second hand value is close to £2k.
If you return it to standard and sell the mods i think you will see £4k no problem.
Even just take the brakes off and you will get circa £800 for them.
With those miles and the mint condition (that i'm sure it's in) the car alone should fetch £2/2.5k standard.

Yeah trouble is the only standard parts I have left are the brakes, I sold or disposed of everything else.
Seems a shame to strip her but it makes sense financially. I know people go on about power on here much of the time, but I focused on getting the car to handle and stop properly and was going to uprate the power next, but to be honest it's fast enough given that the fun for me is to be had keeping a good rate of progress up over a twisty road rather in straight line speed.

Personally I wouldn't let it go for less than 3k, low miles, good history, nice mods and have to say in one of the best colours Subaru did. Just a shame of never made it onto the type r.
Best of luck if you do decide to sell, issue is what would you get next..............? It's a hatch sti isn't it ;-) lol you're a secret lover of them really....

Second that, it may take a little longer to sell but the right buyer will know what they are getting and will be on the look out for such. Issue will be that they will be few n far between and be expected for some very insulting offers and people telling you its worth less.

To be honest I have a big Jag that I use day to day and for motorway crusing and driving round town it's great.
When I want to go for a 'drive' I take the Scoob, but I am just not getting the chance to do that that often these days.
Factor in servicing, insurance and tax and I just wonder whether I should chop them both in and get something in the middle if you know what I mean.
50/50 right now like I said.
To be honest if the hatch floated my boat looks wise and didn't have the engine issue it woudl be a candidate albeit in secondhand mode, can't afford a new one right now.

Chris, given the circumstances, I'd have snapped your hand off for your classic but I have my Wagon now.
£3,000-£3,500 as is, £2,500 standard
It's low owners, low miles, not chavved up, looked after properly and NOT rusty either.

Low miles, good colour and sensible mods should see you clear £3,000 for a quick sale but £3,500 if you are prepared to wait. None of those mods would put me off if i was looking for a good classic.
Good, solid, straight un-chavved classics are getting rare.
