Hey power thanks very much, the first Subaru is exactly what i am after, the only thing that concerned me was the fact it had only done 1000 miles since the work had been carried out, would you personally say that is risky because it has not had chance to run in etc..?

With that budget I'd be waiting for a widetrack blob to come up.

Nope, UK spec also.

Wider track, updated interior and diff control. 05 cars onwards like the one in my link.

PPP was just an optional performance pack available on any Impreza. I wouldn't let the PPP rule your decision too much to be honest as a few tasteful mods will surpass what the PPP offers anyway.
Wide track cars are 05 onwards and easily noticible by the plastic arch extensions on the rear arches.

Will do.

Be sure to keep checking our 'for sale section'. There are some great cars and some great owners on here. I know I'd prefer to buy a car from here rather than the usual places.

Good luck.
