Default Subaru Impreza 2005 "55plate" widetrack sti blobeye

Please check out page 2 for details and photos


2005 ‘55’ plate Widetrack WRX STI in Obsidian Black.

This is my tenth subaru over the last 20 odd years and have owned this particular car twice and have sold my last five subarus to fellow scoobynet members.

V5 is in my name and registered to my address

Mileage 65407 miles

Mot to December 2015(No advisories)

Hpi clear with report(but would always advise to do your own as well)

Sony Cd player with bluetooth/usb etc and pioneer speakers

HID Headlight conversion and detangoed headlights
BC adjustable coilovers with damper adjusting extenders in back
Prosport Digital ‘EVO’ Gauges (Boost/Oil Temp/Oil pressure)
Mud flaps
New Front splitter
Zunsport lower grille
Hella Supertones
Perrin wing stiffies
Modified front grille
piaa wipers
Whiteline arb front and back bushes changed

£200 spent with Dentz to remove all dings(since there is just a tiny one on wing doesnt show up on camera.

It has a full history(service books and leather folder) all old mots and a nice folder full of receipts for work done. The oil(silkolene pro s), fluids and filters(air and fuel) were changed at 63,500 miles and it’s just had a new alternator belt. The cambelt isn’t due until October 2015.
4 x matching Bridgestone potenza’s

2 x keys

The car engine wise is totally standard apart from a cosworth air filter and a TSL back box.

Car was Rolling Roaded in July 2014 at SRR and it produced 277.3 BHP (graph in folder to show) which for a standard car is pretty good. More importantly it didn’t reveal any fueling issues etc.

The only bad point I can think of which is only me being picky is the BC’s do tend creak a bit over speed humps at the rear.

Car drives perfectly whether hot or cold(when you come to view will be left cold to show no dodgy cold starting running issues)

Car is in good condition for its age as you can see in pics but does have some age related marks(not one of these people that says its mint)

I am in Denton,East Sussex Nr Brighton and can collect anyone who wants to view from train station or have met previous buyers at gatwick airport.

Any questions please ask

Its 265bhp. The car being a wide track does not increase bhp. Its more for handling improvements and cosmetic changes.

Correct UK sti is 265...with PPP its 305(claimed) but more like 290 in reality

Good price for a lowish mile example, Shouldnt hang around too long.

I think its the thought of driving half way across the country to fine out its a Lemon, i'm sure its a cracking car, but there are dodgy ones out there. And i'd be cheesed off wasting a whole day to view a car and find out its rubbish.

not offence to the op as it looks a stunning car but myself and im sure others have wasted a lot of time and money on viewing so called immaculate examples only to find they are not once you get there. again though, on paper so to speak it looks spot on

That's the risk in buying any car, until you see it you won't know if it's for you or not.
Afraid that's the game with used cars.

I've always found, the cars for me are always a far, never bought a car local.

If I was to drive down and back up it would be about 16 hours of non stop driving!
Fortunately a flight down would cut that journey time down to about ten hours total.

No offence taken im sure previous scoobynetters that have bought cars from me before will confirm my cars have been spot on
