2005 Subaru Impreza STI Type UK Widetrack (DCCD) 2.0 - SOLD
SOLD 2005 Subaru Impreza STI Type UK Widetrack (DCCD) 2.0
For sale is my Subaru Impreza, the last of the 2.0 generation, built in 2005, with the rear widetrack and manually controlled differentials (DCCD), revised interior, Crystal Grey with gold wheels (at the bottom is a thorough description of how this short run of STI’s differed from the other 2.0 litre cars).
The car has never been tracked, never been crashed, has no finance on it, comes with a complete service history and record of prior owners. 1 remote key fob, 1 non-remote key fob, fully stamped service book, all manuals present, big file of supporting documentation.
Major service items I have dealt with include new clutch, new cambelt and new suspension (Bilstein sourced from Litchfield) in the last few years. 4 new tyres (Goodyear Eagle F1’s) went on this year.
The car is mechanically in very good condition with a long service history and a big stack of paperwork, 121,000 miles on the clock (it’s our daily driver so will increase) whilst the body work is in reasonable condition given its age, with a number of stone chips and marks especially to the front end as expected given it's mileage. Wheels were refurbed a couple of years ago but could do with another refurb again.
UPDATE - as per the last photo, a new car has arrived and costs even more to run than a Subaru, so it's time this went!

How was the widetrack different from the previous 2.0 litre? The changes include a new front subframe that shifts the front wheels 15mm further forward, a thicker rear anti-roll bar, aluminium suspension arms and revised geometry all-round, a limited-slip diff at the rear, a fast-acting helical limited-slip diff at the front and a driver-controlled centre diff (DCCD) which allows the torque distribution to be adjusted between 35/65 and 50/50 front/rear, a 15mm wider rear track and wider rims (up from 7.5 to 8.0in - this increase in what is technically known as Pitch Circle Diameter PCD from 100 to 114.3mm comes as a result of fitting larger, stronger roller bearings for better wheel control).
PRICE - £6,950

New daily driver and the reason the Subaru is leaving

Reason: SOLD
That has to be the most immaculate paintjob I've seen. GLWS
Thanks Dan, I've done my best to try and keep her in good shape, but I'll admit that the front end has a fair few stone chips and where the spoiler meets the boot lid has got chipped over time.
Overall I've done my best to look after her whilst daily-driving two kids to school in it.
@romford-boy I pointed my friend Steve to this thread earlier in the week - I believe he's messaged you about it?
He has brought quite a few of these over to Sweden over the years, and wont give you any problems once a deal is agreed (Every time I've come along with him, we've also paid cash, so there's no risk of bank transfer reversals etc).
Cheers Henrik, yes we're in touch and hopefully sort out the details soon.

Oh man I miss my widetrack so badly! Need to sell my sensible c250 sport estate and get back in one of these!
How many previous owners and when was the cambelt done please?
Funny, I drive my wife's C250 Sport estate far more than the T25 and much prefer it. After the F1 today I have to drive 180 miles and wish it was in the Merc rather than the Scoob!
