2003 Subaru Impreza WRX-STI Type UK PPP 400 BHP 350 FtLbs Torque
I’ve been the lucky 4thowner of this car for just over a year. The previous owner had the car almost 8years (he was a Scooby fanatic and well known in Scooby circles) and took itfrom standard (with the PPP fitted) to almost the current spec.
This car has beenfastidiously maintained and enhanced with only the best components available. Thefuelling, turbo and intake components are rated to far above the current tune –this car is capable of a lot more with only a ECU swap and remap needed.
Following another re-mapby Duncan Graham (RaceDynamix) in June 2012 the car now produces 400 bhp and 347FtLbs torque as recently measured on the Evolve Dyno Dynamics rolling road on 2ndApril 2013.
The car has just beenserviced and passed its’ last MOT on 26/03/13 with no advisories. The car istaxed until 30/10/13. The car currently has 78551 miles on the clock but willincrease slightly as the car gets driven every week.
The car comes with thefull prior service history (10 stamps present in the service book, from the maindealer whilst under warranty and then by Mocom Racing whilst with the previousowner). I have all the old MOTs to prove the mileage, I also have the ProdrivePerformance Pack certificate and a large binder of old receipts and invoicesfor work carried out on the car. There are over £10k of receipts in my folderand there are also a lot of missing receipts – I suspect the total build costis over £20k plus the value of the car!!!

I am fairly sure that ismost of it but I may well have missed something !!!
Myself and the previousowner are “mature” well over 40 anyway … the car has not been tracked, thrashedor abused in any way. The car is always warmed up and down, the best qualitylubricants used and changed regularly.
Being 10 years old now (bornon 19th March 2003) there are one or two minor marks on thepaintwork. The car is regularly cleaned and polished inside and out and looksfantastic!!!
I am currently removing myprivate plate from the car and the original age related plate restored to thecar along with all the appropriate paperwork. I did a full HPI check when Ibought the car which came back clean.
Now the sad bit – I amonly having to sell this car to fund paying the Inland Revenue and mygirlfriend’s legal fees. However I am not in a rush to sell the car and willonly consider reasonable offers.

Hey Boyd, Hope you are well and thriving See you are back in the Scooby fold then ... didn't the Type R cut it?
It is breaking my heart to sell her ... I truly love this car
But I have some rather large bills to pay ... i.e. the Inland Revenue and my girlfriend's legal fees to sort out her dick of an ex I see no other way ....
Rest assured I want to see her go to a good caring home

Gutted for you mate.
Hated the Type R (much like you hated other cars) and got rid after two months.
Loving the JDM STi. Twin scroll is a thing of beauty!
I can obviously vouch for the car Tim is selling as it was mine before him and when I first bought it it was a bog standard STi PPP. All the big bills attached to it I paid for and couldn't bring myself to add them up when I sold it to Tim.
