Default 2004 WRX 77k £2,450

**SOLD**

Selling my WRX £2,450 ovno

77k miles, owned since November
MOT Oct 2013, TAX June 30th 2013
Black leather heated seats, I've also fitted an sti style spoiler with led brake light and two brand new falken tyres from demon tweeks a couple of weeks back. Car runs fine, I do 60+ miles 5 days a week commuting to work.

Bad points - had a new heater matrix fitted at £360 as the heaters weren't blowing hot - heaters now work but intermittently, symptoms are of a stuck open thermostat - I have a new thermostat waiting to go in.


HPI checked and clear BUT drivers side wing colour is very slightly a different shade of red (I can only tell under certain lights) also minor bumper scuff as seen in pics.

The car had all wheels balanced and tracking done but still pulls a couple of mm to the left - this fact and the the slight colour difference leads me to believe it's had a bump in the past.

History is not extensive but there are lots of receipts for various work, MOT's etc.

I've been totally honest as I respect everyone here and the price reflects this - open to sensible offers

Reason for sale: want to upgrade to the Hawk eye or hatch, any other questions feel free! - thanks for reading

They tend to kick down valuation prices when you arrive at there

Anyway this is still very cheap at the advertised price, lot of car for the money.

You wont sell your car by keep lobbing more and more money off!
Potential buyers will just smell a rat,especially as it was uber cheap to begin with.

2100 its realistic price for quick sale(max 3.3k in my opinion with remap),as you could get sti 2003 for 5k or under
i could ask 4k(i dont say ill get it) for mine wrx ppp with bc racing coilovers,alk ,arb's,18",side skirts,lip, and lpg but i like it to much
you dont know maybe he could take next car with similar price drop

you sound just like me with my cars mate lol, i normally end up knocking more money off if they dont sell in a day,i get impatient,some people quite happily keep there car up for sale for 6 months without budging on price.
£2400 is a very good price for this though mate

Just sold an 05 wrx with 50k 2owners and an excellent f.s.h.
Totally standard apart from exhaust and wheels for 5k.So many people on here undervalue them.
Depends on the car as they vary greatly

agreed hence a 5K STI will be a dog, price reflects condition generally

you are done by 2 dogs than
advert below 5k 28k miles only bought by trader on pistonheads now 8k
https://www.scoobynet.com/subaru-444...-for-sale.html
hawk sti sold here for 6.5k, forged hawk sti sold for 7k,
spec d with coilovers,deffis,sti spoiler 6200 -sold close to you in northampton.
jdm sti 2003 blob from api sold for close to 5k (half year ago)
and few more,
or you wish to tell us api selling dogs
like i wrote ppp wrx for 4k with coilovers, suspension mods 18"etc
standard sti for 5k is realistic price now, wake up as yours is worth no more than 7.5k now(of course if it is widetrack) even with d2 brake kit and standard pads( why the f. you did not upgrade them, where is logic change them than)
