RED WRX JDM NEWAGE
I had problems with the Photobucket but have now managed to sort it out.
So here we go again. I bought this car from my best mate 18 months ago. The two other previous owners are also friends and their details can be passed on if you need any more info on the car. As it is a JDM the full history is not available but I have an extensive folder of bills and receipts.
As the car is a JDM model it benefits from a better specification than the equivalent UK version. It was imported in May 2007. The AVCS heads make a real difference with performance and power delivery. This WRX is my seventh Subaru, it is a bloody good car and got me and my lovely lady to Lake Como (again) and back last September, never missing a beat, not using any oil or coolant, averaging about 28/30 mpg on steady long shleps along the Autobahns. No knocks from the suspension, engine, chassis or gearbox. It’s had all the fluids and main consumables replaced over the last few months including the pollen cabin filter. It came to me with a few cosmetic body mods that were not my thing and I have taken it back to as near normal as is possible, the details are in the Scoobynet thread below.
The grand-children continue to grow and I need something with a bit more space. It has not been driven like a getaway but can pick up it’s skirts and shift along at a fair rate if needed.

The asking price is £4250 but this can be adjusted if you want to take it without the stone chips, wings etc being resprayed but I would like it to go in the best condition possible. I have another car sourced, no offers of PX deals please. I will need to see a valid insurance and driving license prior to any test drives.
