Default UK300 - Only owner from new

My 2001 UK300 is officially up for sale.

Im the only owner from new. No expense has been spared on this car.
Full Prodrive spec as standard. Mapped to 300bhp
Always filled up with Shell V Power fuel
Always warmed up and cooled down after driving
Blitz Turbo Timer fitted
Private number plate that relates to the car
Tinted windows
Upgraded discs and pads
Below average miles - 76k
Very rare care - Only 90 out of the 300 remain
Cambelt and MAF sensor replaced even though they didnt need it, but just for piece of mind.
MOT till Oct 2013 and 1 years Tax will be put on in Feb
Regular services and receipts and MOT certificates all kept

£5000

This really is an excellent example of what will be a very rare car

email me with any questions or pictures

I heard '90 out of 300 left' quoted when I bought my UK300, but I wasn't ever able to find the source of that information - it'd be nice to know if its accurate as obviously it effects my own cars value - can I ask where you got the figure from?

Good luck with the sale too, sounds like a prime example and should get snapped up.

Cheers Mate.

I saw another UK300 for sale and he quoted the "90 out of 300 left".
I spoke to him to find out where he got this information from and he said he worked at DVLA, and he was able to see the number of makes and models that were registered.

I'd looked at that too but I'm doubtful of its accuracy, after all it thinks that in Q4 of 2005 there were 327 of them registered and 5 new ones put on the road!

Either way, 90 or 271... there's still not that many of them

Ha ha. How did it come up with 327??? Did someone register their wrxs as uk300s?

Anyway, still one of the rarest subarus ever produced.

Hi, just dropped you an email but can you confirm a few things?

1. What you've replaced the parts you've sold on with (exhaust, hoses, lights, strut brace, head unit)
2. Have you left the HIDs on the car or are they back to the originals?
3. Did you fix the power steering pump issue?
4. Did you fix the weeping from the driveshaft?
5. Have you removed the flamer kit?

If this doesn't get sold I could be tempted to break for spares. Someone is interested in the interior.
Is anyone else interested if its sold as spares?
Engine? Gearbox? Body shell?

There's always people in the market for spares, I doubt you'd struggle to shift most of it though I think it'd be a shame to do so.

I agree mate. That will be a last resort though. Its a shame cause this is such an immaculate and genuine car. Ive had it from new and no expense has been spared

I can see both sides to breaking a car like this

Its a limited edition motor and therefore there's a market out there for people who need bits to keep theirs original ...

Its a limited edition car and a crying shame if one more was lost even though it may keep others going


Me I'd try to keep it complete.

Ive purchased my new car so if there are no buyers, then I will run it as a second car.

The previous buyer had this checked over by a mechanic and another subaru owner, and everyone fell in love with it, but then I always knew if you see if in the flesh they would
