P1 for sale - deal of century (I think)
Ok so just moved back to blighty and decided to buy a P1 cos they are cheap and damn awesome.
So went out and bought one for £7,300. One owner from new, standard apart from a scorpion backbox (nothing else changed bar the backbox). I put on a new sterio with the dab thingy so apart from that car is untouched from when I bought it.
The first owner was some geezer who maintained old aircraft so has been treated like a baby... I have owned it for 2 months and hardly driven other than backwards and forwards to London a bit.
80,000 miles
two owners from new (including me)
Original UK P1 - not an import
Some new fangled DAB sterio with ipad/pod thingy and some phone Bluetooth thing (has original 6 stack changer)
Needs the following:
Everytime it gets turned on cold that squeeling noise comes from power steering - got told it will cost 500 to fix.
The price...
I paid £7,300 for it two months ago (will show paperwork etc etc etc) And I want to sell now because it's just sitting there doing nothing as I have something a little bit more mad that I use now
£6,000.
Pics and viewings to people that are interested...
Talk to me

Yeh has full service history... send me a PM with your email address and i'll email you some pics.
Has full MOT and full Tax until next year.
Car is absolutely beautiful and in perfect operating condition apart from that squeal for about 10 seconds on start up from cold (As mentioned I asked a Subaru specialist to give me the worst case scenario on it and adjusted the price accordingly).
Car is located near South Mimms on M25 but I'm an Essex lad originally so always in and around the area.

Na someone else mentioned this to me ... I don't really know how to do stuff like that and, to be honest, can't really be bothered as am selling it. Happy for new owner to get a deal.
(p.s. been on here for 10+ years and anyone that knows me will tell you that when I sell something I put it at a price that will sell - because can't be bothered with all the negotiation or other garbage)

yeh I will try and post some but getting so many emails now I think it going to be gone. Basically it's a beautiful condition P1 so pics are same as every other but I understand why people wants to see etc etc etc.
I am a Scooby enthusiast (have owned pretty much every UK special edition ever released) and no matter what cars I own I usually always have a Subaru kicking around also. So I want it to go to an enthusiast also and at this price someone will be very happy, as will I. Win Win for everyone.

As mentioned mate I'm not up with these technical things .. I am unfortunately one of those people that sends to my trusted garage for them to fix and present me with a bill. I took worst case scenario (apparent) and then if the new owner can fix for less then they win... either way I think it the fairest way to sell.
This is not on Pistonheads thingy or Autotrader/car/whatever .. just on here for subuaru people.

Dude I spent 3 hours (before calling assist) for one of my other cars because it told me to go into front boot compartment and turn a master switch to reset the battery.... had no idea what I was looking for..... Assist came, 2 seconds literally I was on my way. I am a service department dream client that is for sure.

Ok I have received multiple offers to buy this car for the asking price... so it's provisionally sold pending actual cash in my hand and a V5 being signed across. If the buyer does not follow through it will be offered back in order of those who said 'mine for 6k'. Thanks for all interest and will post update in here
