I previously had a 4 door for around 3 years, then changed to a 5 door for numerous practical reasons 6 months ago. Due to a change in circumstances I now want to go back to a 4 door.

So I have a lovely silver MY99 wagon that I want to either sell outright or ideally exchange for a 4 door UK spec turbo of similar mileage and preferably a bit younger. If a cash difference is appropriate on my part then thats not a problem.







Spec:

NY99 October 1999
Dealer supplied UK car
FSH
27000 miles
Silver
17" Subaru 2001 alloys - really suits the car
Toyo Proxies all round ...new 3000 miles ago.
Eibach springs fitted by TSL
Braided brake hoses fitted by TSL
4 wheel alignment by TSL
Sebring backbox (not too loud - important in a wagon)
Magnex ss de-cat centre pipe
Colour keyed mirrors
Stainless steel load protector
Load tray
Subaru matts
Otherwise standard
No engine mods

The car is in extremely good condition....call Robinsons of Rochdale who will vouch for this, and all the cavities have been wax-oiled.

No track days and never revved above 3000 when cold.

Taffy...your car would be ideal but the mileage is a little high for me.

But thanks for the interest

Taffy

Have thought about it all day and although I like the sound of your car the mileage is too high.

Thanks again

Re-posted due to time waster[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Really pi**ed off cos I spent all day valletting her ready for collection and then got an email from potential buyer to say he cant buy anymore. Ahh well..

Well one last try at selling or swapping her, and failing that I will just keep her....especially now shes had a vallet she looks gorgeous

Hello Denis, I'm the second owner, 1st was a company (hence the
mileage) car is immaculate, does have a couple of stone chips
on the bonnet but not many, has got a very nice stereo and a
fire extinguisher fitted, and also got a momo air ****,
very happy with the car, but a 5 door would be a little bit
more practicle for me, if you want to talk more please
mail me , if not cant blame me for trying ey!
Cheers again Denis Mike!!!!!
ps mileage is high for year, but if you are planning to keep
it for a while an dont do that much mileage then it will even
itself out in a couple of years, and the servicing is every
7500 miles for a while untill they catch up with eachother.

Unfortunately just bought a MY99 wagon this weekend, equally as nice, but good luck with the sale.

Do you want to sell on you interior extras - boot tray, load guard etc.?

Sorry Fastman I will want all the extras for my car if I end up not selling and keeping the car.

You must do the spring thing cos the standard wagon just sits too high.

Sparky, thanks mate, but its not for sale,
was just thinking of swapping it with Denis (lower miles
& IMHO a nicer colour 5 door)
thanks for the interest, Mike!
