thats the problem though most of the times mods dont really impact the price you sell it for, there are exceptions, hopefully there is someone out there who wants to do exactly what you have done, and spend a good wedge of cash on your car,

good luck

I would agree with the 8k, although worth more mods dont seem to help the price. I struggled to find one unmodofied. Really nice motor your gonna have to buy someting special to keep the smile on your face mate.

Looks really nice. I agree that £8k seems to be the roof. I've seen lower miles STi's gone for £8250 whereas some people are struggling to sell at £9500 with the same mileage.

What you going to buy????? You will have to spend a lot of money to get something with similar performance....unless your going to buy a normal car i would just stick with it,

Ditto,

I thought the same a couple of times i have a mortgage and don't want to have to much debt for a car, I would need to spend 15k to get something close to the performance of what i have, Im gonna stick as i am as i own my car completely

Thats about right for a non-DCCD UK STI Blobeye. DCCD equipped STIs have sold on here for about £8K with under 60K miles.

I've seen some hawks for similar money and not too offensive on the mileage.

Pricing will depend on how long you're prepared to have it hanging around.

That's a nice car mate, I bought my current 03 sti standard ppp for 7k with 52k in black. I have spent 2k modding when I wanted one already done. Would have bought yours for 8k all day long if it was for sale last month. Wouldn't take a penny less than 8k. If I ever sell mine I will be going for 8k too, similar mods to yours. Would only sell if I was looking at saving money on fuel and insurance and moving to one car only (currently use sti as fun car and have an economical everyday driver) but would not sell as to replace with something equally as goo for that price, for the money you cant find anything else as reliable with as much performance. One thing for sure is you get a lot of bang for your buck when it comes to a car like this.
