Wonderful car that I love to bits - only going to make room for an MY03 wagon . No rush to sell, but car could be available immediately if you're ready to buy.

Would have taken pictures today, but it pee'd it down after I'd cleaned and waxed the car - typical . It's great condition saloon my00 in dbm with p1 wheels. If you really need a picture, I'll take one

Cheers,
Nick.

Cheers Ray.

Forgot to mention - full UK spec car

I had a quick troll through autotrader, and it seems that 11k + is the going rate for these but everything I saw (admittedly quickly) was for higher mileage at that price.

Good luck with the job hunt

Forgot a couple of points - d'oh!

and mirrors - I had the side skirts and orange wedges done too)

Cheers,
Nick.

When you say the car is full uk spec, would I be right in assuming that it is a uk sourced car and not a euro import??? Where abouts in the country are you, a rough idea only if your not happy to post the village/town you live in. Any piccs would be nice

Btw, seeing as it was registered in 99 I take it there is no warranty left? .. not a major problem

It is sourced from Holland, hence the different and vastly superior alarm . Everything (down to the locking wheel nuts) is UK spec, hence no problems getting it serviced at the local Subaru dealer, and even warranty work has been done on it (leaking boot, so no big deal).

I'm in Leeds, but am occasionally in Milton Keynes, hence pass quite a few places on the M1 if you want to have a look. Certainly Nottingham's on the way - that's the second enquiry from there! Must be a scoob hotspot

It is currently tracked, but I'm currently planning on taking the tracker to the new car. I daresay that I could be talked out of this.

Warranty has expired on the car. To be honest, I'm not extending it as I don't believe it's worth it. The car has always been warmed up/warmed down and used the best oil (currently on Motul 300v competition) hence everything should be just right

Cheers,
Nick.

this car is mint, Nick is a perfectionist, and the car hasn't been on a trackday, or thrashed.

Top buy for someone.

Nice cheap buy for someone.

As definite as it can be, subject to inspection. Chrome had a "gentle test drive" this morning, and I get the impression he quite approved - or at least, the smile sort of gave it away

If everything goes bad, and I really can't see that happening, I'll drop you a mail after the other two (!) in the list.

Cheers,

Nick.

Car is sold, yes, subject to inspection on Tuesday though there won't be any problems with that.

...er.. missed a bit! :P LOL
Cheeky sod - that's a reflection if you mean the bit at the bottom of the side skirt!!!!! Yeah, I thought the same myself when I looked at the pix tho . I still can't believe I polished the bits where the door closes on to!
