Thinking of trading in the 2001 bug for a 2005 Wrx UK300 PPP with 48000 miles and 5 service stamps (cambelt change with the last service). Its advertised at £7,495. Is this around the going rate ?.

You can get a good sti at that price.

I'd say it seems a good price, but then a good price is one that properly reflects the condition of the car.

It would certainly have me thinking though, if I was in the market for one.

Good luck hunting.

overpriced for a uk300 which is a special edition wrx... its not worth 7.5k

Cheers GAZ2293. In your opinion what would be the right numbers ?

The price needs to start with a 5.

Blob WRX 300 doesn't really count as a special edition..........They just wanted to shift cars.

Don't even think it should start with a 5........

You're probably right Shaun, I know I wouldn't want to give in the 5's for it if I was buying it for myself.

Im guessing its at a dealers which would ofcourse bump the price up a touch, and the miles/history are good. Taking that into consideration its worth a bit more than most but its still just a WRX in a frock.
If he's asking near 8K for it then its never going to come for a reasonable price, just walk away now.

shaun id say 4500 at the prices now im up at carlisle friday lol op dont bother with it

Between 5 and 6k imho providing it was in great cond with a FSH.

But 5 stamps on an 8 year old car is not FSH

As above, walk away, you can get a standard low miles blob WRX for less than £4k with change to make it go to 350bhp and still have money left over, or if your after that look £7.5k is Blob STI money.

Defiantly not worth it i saw UK300 blobs for sale cheaper then my Bug UK300!
For that money I would be looking at a STI Blob or a nice clean WRX for around £4k

LuckyWelshchap

My apologies.

Having seen some posts I've checked. I looked at STi's for whatever reason, and posted on that basis.
The others who've posted and said its overpriced are in the real world and correct.

Sorry about that.

This is a bargain, A lot more car than the UK300 at £1500 cheaper, I`m not sure on the seller or history though, But its a great buy on the face of it and its also got a nice set of bbs rims on it

Yeah except in the add it says milage is 79k but in the pic of the clocks it says 103k one to watch me thinks.

I noticed that too

My guess would be part Miles and KM's as I doubt it was in the country from new

MattyB1983

iTrader: (51)

Yep, thats a much better buy. I would think your theory of part KM part miles is correct.
