Default Subaru Type r V5

Hi All,

That wasn't stunning, just looked it from the outside. Was rotten as hell in the places you couldn't see in the pics.

Grey is a good colour for these and does sell well. Being standard with low miles also helps as well as being fresh in the country.
The car will make around 5 grand if its nice and tidy.

What makes you think its a limited ??

It said V5 LTD on auction and docs, certainly looks clean just seen grey one on pistonheads more mileage for £6.5k.
Thinking might get some bronze te37 on it and keep it or store it these will only go up in value I'm guessing.

Remember that advertised price and selling price are very different. You can advertise it for £50K if you like, doesn't mean it'll sell for that.
From experience and watching the market I think the car will make around 5 grand. Maybe a touch more if its very very tidy and you find the right man.

Its not a limited either chap, easy spot is its missing the roof flap.
As for increasing in price, yea eventually but will be quite a number of years before they start appreciating. A nice, clean, standard low mileage car certainly won't lose any money though fella.

Heres some info for ya....

Hi, lands tomorrow at Bristol, just found out that cars over 10 years old don't need SVA just registered and MOT, would you want me to register or would you want to be first owner in UK.

Sorry wasn't sure first time importing

it would really depend on the cars condition and how good it is etc and of course the price, im looking at a very low mileage turbo 2000 today so might buy it if its as good as it sounds, but im also very interested in the type r. Im in Belfast too which causes a bit of an issue distance wise :-(

Nor am I a dealer or trader I imported this to see how easy it was to import and costs,time and procedures because I am going to look at importing more so maybe in a few years you can call me a dealer/ trader.
