Default Excellent Condition '04 WRX Wagon UK (Java Black Pearl)

2004 (‘04) Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon

This excellent Wagon has been my primary car for the past three years and has been maintained by specialists to the highest degree. It’s the perfect mix of fun and practicality, I’m a 30 year old professional and am very fussy with my cars.

It’s an absolutely heart-wrenching sale so may I ask politely that this thread is not cluttered and if you have any questions or comments I will happily answer them via PM. Thanks.

The Car:
• 2004 (04) Impreza WRX Sportswagon UK
• 58,000 miles
• HPI clear, no finance on the car and has never been stolen or recorded on V Car
• Big folder of receipts and history

History:
• Full Service History. In my ownership it’s had:
o 2 services at DS Automotives in Aylesbury (Bucks), Japanese specialist
o Last service in December by the excellent Richard at FB Tuning. This consisted of 50k service and associated parts/oil: cambelt and idler bearing, alternator belt, gearbox oil, diff oil, oil filter, cleaned air filter, fresh coolant, fresh brake fluid
o New brake discs/pads fitted at the time, detail below
o Car has completed 2,000 miles since this service
• Tax till March 2012 (£245)
• MOT till July 2012
• 3 owners

Bodywork:
• “Java Black Pearl”, rare colour, black with gold flecks, looks stunning in the sun, pictures don’t do it justice
• Excellent paint, far above average for a 6 year old car
• Professionally machine polished today
• Painted side skirts
• STI front corner splitters fitted in February
• Minor stone chips and the odd mark but just mentioning to be as honest as possible

Engine:
• Great condition engine and mechanicals, no oil leaks or smoke. Always warmed up and cooled down
• K&N induction kit
• Full 3” stainless steel turbo-back exhaust including decat downpipe and 100cell sports cat to 4.5” rolled tip. Unsure of brand but sounds great, like Prodrive one but with more growl. Doesn’t drone on the motorways but retains the nice “burble”
• EcuTek Remap holding 1.2 bar boost
• Produces 270bhp and 270 lbft with print-out from Surrey Rolling Road to prove. (Quicker than a Prodrive STi with room for a dog in the back!)
• Always run on Shell V-Power and Millers 10/40 fully synthetic oil

Chassis:
• BC Racing “BR” Coilovers 30 point adjustable damping, height adjustment via bottom mount to retain full suspension travel, 6/5 springs for more body control
• Adjustable top-mounts all round with camber set at -1.8F -1.3R
• Whiteline Roll Centre Adjustment kit
• Standard shocks with Tein springs also available
• Godspeed grooved disks all round (fitted December 2010)
• EBC Blue Stuff pads (fitted December 2010)
• Goodridge braided brake hoses
• Motul Dot 5.1 brake fluid (changed December 2010)

Wheels:
• Choice of:
o 17x7.5” et42 Rota GRA’s in custom black chrome with Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta’s in 225/45/17, refurbished in November 2010, look fantastic
o 17x7” et48 Speedline Type 2113 in a bluey/anthracite colour with Bridgestone RE050A’s in 215/45/17
o All with good tread, no scuffs on wheels
• D1 Drift bronze lightweight wheel nuts

Interior/Other:
• STi Spec-C black alcantara front and rear seats in great condition. Possibly the best seats Subaru has made to date, so comfy. (Rears not fitted as I had intended to fabricate a mounting bracket to hold them in the Wagon)
• Original seats also available
• Genuine Subaru Boot load protector
• Brand new Genuine Subaru carpet mats
• Bosch bulbs wherever I’ve changed them
• Sparco wiper blades
• Always cleaned with Dodo Juice/Meguiars/Autoglym products
• Returns up to 32mpg over an average tank surprisingly!

Price
Priced as below to reflect the overall excellent condition and the amount of recent work done. Nothing will need doing all year, just hop in and drive with peace of mind.
• As-is with BC Coils, Spec C seats and Rota wheels: £7,000 (ovno)
• As-is except with Standard seats: £6,700 (ovno)
• Standard suspension with Tein springs and standard seats: £6,200 (ovno)
NB: Any extras not sold with the car will be available separately after the car has sold.

I am located just outside Watford, Hertfordshire. Please PM or call 07803243214 with any questions. If I can't answer please leave a message and I'll get back to you.

Test drives only with valid proof of insurance and both parts of driving license. No part exchanges thank you.

Shame to see it go Matt - if I could convince her indoors to down-size I'd consider this but she want's 7-seats

If it goes with the standard springs and teins let me know - I could be interested in the BC's if they'd fit my bug

Good luck with the sale

Have just shown the missus... she'll sleep on it then tell me we can't afford it, I'll then sulk and then the cycle will begin again.

Cracking car- and I can vouch for the condition, it truly is one of the best you will find. As I mentioned to you earlier today Matt this is one of my favourite scoobs ever, if we could muster the funds it would be sitting on my driveway in a heartbeat. Good luck with the sale mate, someone will end up with a genuinely lovely car.

Need this gone now, sensible offers please before I strip the suspension/seats etc. and put it in Autotrader.

Really can't stress how immaculate this is. Try me, you never know

Pic bump for a sneaky wagon hiding in the corner

PRICE DROP: £6,350 as-is

Open to viewings and can re-fit standard suspension/interior to reduce price if anyone wants.

Just had a new MOT at the weekend, sailed through as expected.
