Default car for sale unhappy time

after having to face facts and waiting too long to buy a tv car is now up for sale due to having more kids than seats
but i will have another subaru asap

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=180729965632

more pics here- http://s636.photobucket.com/albums/u...baru%20425bhp/

SUBARU CATALUNYA LTD EDITION NO 77

Just want to say before i start with all the technical stuff that if your bothered about fuel consumption? comfort? suffer with any heart problems? or have reactions like a dying moose this car is not for you.
now from reading that 1st part i suppose you can guess that this car is not for the faint hearted its ridiculously fast and the most fun you will have on 4 wheels.

i am absolutely gutted that i have got to sell her but with it not having enough seats for the family we finally have to part ways.
just before i list the spec of the car i want you to know that the engine has just been rebuilt with all brand new parts and done 500mile run in with millers running in oil so the engine is brand new.
car was built by eclipse performance in sunderland and if anyone wants to contact them they will tell you everything you need to know, since ive owed the car its never been tracked or raced.
now the engine is run in i will be taking it to steve simpson at teg sport to adjust the map, the simtec ecu fitted to car was designed by steve over years of development and is one of the best ecus to have on a subaru. There are 2 maps on the ecu which you can change between 1st is v-power map 2nd is if you ever get caught short for v-power and have to put normal 95 unleaded in.
If you was crazy enough you get something like the new billet range turbos either the scoobyclinic range or lateral performance ones and aim for the 500bhp mark the engine and gearbox will both take it, but if im honest the way it is now is more than enough for any human.

ENGINE

• Rebored closed deck block with oversize Forged Pistons & Steel eagle con rods
• ACL Race series big end and main bearings

I thought from looking around 5k is right in the current Market to be fair there is loads of subarus for sale but not selling it's definatly a buyers Market, I really don't wanna sell and it's taken months of deciding, it's my 3rd Subaru by far the most fun, more I keep talking about it the closer I am to removing it off eBay lol ,
Going to give it a really good wash an polish tomorrow and take some really nice pics

I second that being a buyers market. I am trying to sell my low milage, very clean MY95 Classic and had little interest, this is despite selling it fairly cheap!

Good luck with the sale, it does look like a stunning motor. I hope you get what you are wanting

Yikes that is gorgeous, stick it in a garage and buy a cheap rusty spares/reapir MPV, that gearbox is worth half the 5k, insane to let it go at that price

That's where it lives anyway til weekend then I will nip to shop then back in garage it goes, putting it up for sale was like choosing which leg to chop off, i know it sounds cheap but you have a look around subarus just don't seem to be selling, I even thought about selling it in bits but I'd be crying as I was taking bolts out, it's too good to strip and I would rather some one enjoy it as much as I do

i know but it would be like cutting my dog up
plus i wouldnt know where to start or whats worth what and it really is a nice car and would rather see it drive away knowing some one will enjoy it.
if it doesnt sell then i will do what i can to keep it but with the amount of interest already i think it will sell

I thought the same with mine and only made £1950 on eBay. I've just found out it's being exported for parts.
Now I am gutted. I'm hoping he pulls out of the sale. Not good times for selling. GLWTS.

I've moved the thread to the correct forum for you, but you must put a complete advert on this site, not just an EBay link - could you please do so?

Cheers
