From looking at the imageshack, click which photo you want to use, on the right there is a tab which states "Link to share image" and you need the direct link, Copy and paste that into you advert

I don't use image shack myself, I always use photobucket, never had any problems with limits etc

simply sign up for free.

Click up load, once uploaded it gives you 4 options under each photo, select the one at the bottom which has IMG next to it and paste that in your ad

A couple of questions with regards to the car. In the photos it shows rust on the rear arches, is this pre respray or post??

And can you give me a few more details on the rebuild? who by and what exactly was done?

No one interested? Price to high? Was rebuilt at Greer Motorsport in June 2008 with receipts for people wanting too no. It's been a brilliant car for me Completely faultless (apart from clutch)

It looks very tidy & at around £4000 would be a good buy for someone. I think the reason it's not sold is that for a bit more money you can buy one with a lot more power that's already been modified.

It's already been modified? I just don't think type r's are selling at all!!! No one wants to pay £5000 for a 14 year old car no matter what it is unless its an absolutely pristine example.

No mention of an uprated fuel pump. Does it have one? What was the reason for the rebuild in 2008?

Tempted. Waiting for my PPI to come through

Any scope for negotiation on the 4500?

i, of course I want to buy it, but for the proper PRICE. I´ve got to wait for the insurance. If it not sold by then.

I asked about germany, because there is quite a few who don´t want to sell their scooby´s to and i don´t know why.

Regards
Mike

P.S
I`ll try and get the photos of my wrecked impreza. I don´t know how

I've been watching quite a few TypeR's over the last few weeks with the intention of buying one at some point. It seems the accepted level of a relatively decent example is around £3-4k. I've had several sellers basically give in after months of trying to sell theirs.
For example one for £5k had "taxed until May 2012" in the ad. The price was dropped to £4k and when i phoned the seller he said he would accept £3k cash as its obviously been sat on the forecourt for several months now.

Hi mate yes it has an uprated fuel pump iv just missed it off. Not sure as I didn't own the car then but my guess is the bottom end went as its had a new shortblock fitted.

If I had £3k right now I'd be there like a shot. I doubt I'm the first person to enquire, and If i'm honest time is on my side, if it goes i think another will come along.
A nicely modded one like yours though would be out of my reach .
