Default Impreza STI 2 RA V-LTD for sale - Jap Import

Only 500 made of this very special car to celebrate the 95 Rally Championship. Becoming rarer and rarer each year, will surely start increasing in price. Blows recent STI's of the road with ease.

Bought over from Japan a little over 4 years ago, so loads of UK history, most of which from Power Engineering.

Light weight model, Deep Blue Mica, 280bhp (with print out), all usual refinements + 17" Gold OZ Super Tourismos ( £1200, rare, high quality Alloy)

Elec Windows/Mirrors, Climate Control, STI Seats, STI Steering Wheel, STI fitted Mats, Kenwood Componants & CD player with 6 Disk changer, completely standard other than Greddy Turbo Timer and Blitz Dump Valve.

Recent Cam Belt and clutch, with reciepts (the main worries out of the way), new exhaust & brakes (as of next week), 4 Tyres with loads of tread.

Mechanically very strong, no temperature fluctuations or anything, just a very fast, capable car at a bargain price

The car is in superb condition, took my time choosing my Impreza and loved this one from the moment i saw it. The only flaw with the whole car is a *** burn on the passenger seat. You really wouldnt believe this car was coming up to 9 years old. I've taken extreme care with this car, as did the previous owner ( a mechanic) , warming up the car before going on boost, cooling down before stopping , no 'launching' from every traffic light i see & and have always used BP Ultimate/Optimax, which it has been callibrated for.

And the icing on the cake is a very expensive Private Plate N* WRC, valued at over £1000.

Price i'm looking for is £7495 ONO which with the Alloys and Number Plate alone make it a complete bargain. See one on Auto Trader for £8000 recently but i am looking for a quick sale due to my future Australian Adventures....


If anyones is able to host pics for me i'd be very gratefull, let me know & i'll mail em to ya.


Any questions let me know.

Cheers

Wez

Hi mate,

its Taxed and MOT'd till the end of April.

Has 116000 on the clock, 40,000 was in Kilometres (with certificate), so about 100,000miles.

you can buy imports with '40,000' on the clock, but the likelyhood of a 9 year old car doing that sort of mielage is very remote! You'll be able to tell from my cars condition the mielage is genuine and would easily pass for 60/70k.

Cheers

10 year old cars with 40000 miles are not remote esp as Japan has the best public transport system in the world.

BTTT for you

Talking Thanks Guys

BTTT


Thanks for the comments/help guys

Probaly going in Auto Trader's next issue.

Go on, beat the tyre kickers!

Really is a gorgeous car. This shape and style are getting rarer by the day. As i said, i'd be very suprised if they don't start ganning value in the not too distant future. Embarrass new age STI's for less than £8K!

BTW Car is today having new brakes and a check over, just for piece of mind.

what a nice guy i am

right, dealer i went to didnt have a clue what he was talking about and was looking up UK turbo prices, dumb @ss!

not offended by the offer, worth a try.

up date on the situation...

basically i am absolutely skint! Mum goes to Oz in a month leaving me to find somewhere to live or poss go with her.

The car failed the MOT on 2 minor things which in total would cost <£100 to sort including labour, (i have the MOT reciept to prove) could of gone to a dodgy garage who'd of passed it so hope you appreciate my honesty!

because of my finances i cant afford to tax/MOT the car so will obviously take this into account with the asking price.

now asking £5750

thats £1k off for £100 of work, some tax and a quick sale.

Thats a fooking bargain if you ask me!
