Thumbs up My UK Classic MY00 Impreza 2000

SOLD SOLD SOLD

Hi Guy's, well after many months of thinking about it I have made the decision to sell my car after 6.1/2 years of ownership. Many of you will know the car from here and the show's and will have watched it transform itself into what it is today.

Over the years I slipped into the bad habit of show & shine with SIDC

SIDC Show and Shine Events
Japfest 07.... 5th in show plus best 1st time entrant
Trax 08... 3rd place for Best classic modified
Japfest 09... 3rd Place
JTS 09... 3rd Place
Trax 09... 2nd Place
Japfest 10... 3rd Place
Trax 10... 3rd Place

The car is to be sold complete I will not be removing any items from it.
I have never had any problems and the car runs as sweet as anything, over the last few years it gets parked up during the winter and has stayed well away from the salt for a few years now. It had an MOT in March and was taxed for 12 months in April.

This years service included new spark plugs as well as having a service and the cam belt was change last summer. The Brembo's since fitting have covered around 6k I feel and are still in top condition with very little wear. I by my own self admission am not a hard or aggressive driver so the car has never been on the track or driven hard like many examples out there. Again the wheels and tyres are a couple of years old with little wear on them, I drop winter wheels on to use until the spring so when the car has been layed up the Rota's have been in storage, I only covered 2.5k in the car from mot to mot last time.

As many of you may know I have been busy under the bonnet, please don't let the polished parts scare you it is very easy to maintain and a quick hour now and then is all that is needed.

If you search against my user name and drop in posts started in the Gallery you will see the car from day 1 and watch how it grew into where we are today plus all my pictures are still hosted so all will be available to see.

Here's a thread on Impreasport detailing under bonnet activity.

http://www.imprezasport.net/forums/i...howtopic=18468

This is as it stands today.





















The sale will include the reg number.

No test pilots please

SOLD SOLD SOLD

Regards
Simon

Mate, hope you've got something very special to replace this as you'll seriously regret selling it. Classics in this condition aren't easy to replace! This is one of the nicest cars on here IMO

Good luck and hope you don't mind me cluttering your thread up.

This is a VERY clean example, if your interested then don't hang about, it won't be here long. Not many classics like this left, even the underneath of the car is immaculate. Hope it goes to a good home.

This is probably the best UK classic anywhere in the country. If only I had the money to hand. Good luck with the sale, but I suspect you won;'t need it. Some cars are special and this is one of those.

Wow, just wow

You know my thoughts simon on selling it and you know full well how you and I loved our 95H classics but I can see why you are selling it and tbh, you wont have a problem at all !!

I have broken my rule of not posting on scoobynet on my honeymoon just to post in here so it must be important

Now, which bits can I have

Thanks everyone I really appreaciate the great comments on the car, it just goes to show how great this forum can be especially when 99% of the research needed for the mods on the car and the bulk of the parts have been learned about and many have been sourced on here

I do have a few other parts that I will be selling, polished manifold, new age and classic OEM DV's and throttle body all polished plus cam belt covers off mine but details for all of those items will follow plus after the car goes I'll have the winter wheels as well available.

Swiss posting on the honeymoon !!! is that a wise move there pal

I'm sad to see it leave our shores but I hope the new owner has much pleasure in taking ownership of this gem of a car

Enjoy.
