Default Silver MY95 WRX Wagon needs some repair (Price Lowered)

For sale is my 1995 Subaru Impreza with 70,000 miles. The clock reads 104,000 which is a mixture of KMS and Miles. Have JUMVA Certificate which states mileage on import to UK.

Converted to MPH and de-limited.

Car had an incident with a well placed concrete block in the road and as a result has sustained damage to the N/S front alloy (this is snapped) and possible damage to the suspension. Suspect an easy repair for the right person. The car has also been subject to an attempted theft which has left the ignition barrel housing broken and steering wheel surrounds damaged. I have all the replacement parts to put this right and it is a very simple fix.
These parts will be supplied with the car.

Engine in great working order and car was in excellent condition pre-accident. Car has not sustained any damage to the bodywork.

Spec as follows:

1995 (M) WRX Wagon
406 Silver Metallic
70K miles
Engine in good running order

Exterior :

Clear indicators and repeaters
Halo Black Headlights
Colour coded spats / sideskirts
STI rear waist spoiler
STI Facelift front grille
Newage Anthracite 17” Alloys (3 good one split in half!)

Interior :

Colour coded vents and center console
Blue LED replacement clock and dial lights
Std Nardi Steering wheel

Performance :

GarageWorks Redzone ECU Upgrade producing 16.5psi boost

Induction kit fitted

The car does have tax but requires an MOT. This was going to be done but the car has been off the road since the accident.

This was my pride and joy. A very sad sale, but I do not have the time or knowhow to put it right.

I would imagine the person who does buy this will be very pleased.

All inspections of the car are welcome, no point in arranging test drives though!!

My mobile number is 07925 809723

Price has been dropped...will accept £1550 (oh it's heartbreaking!)

Many thanks

I only have a picture of the wheel fitted at the moment. I will be going back to the car later on today and can take some more pictures for you. Will take the wheel off and take some close-ups.

Cheers

Haven't been to get the pictures yet. Unfortunately don't have another set of wheels to try on the car. Would have given this a go if I had though.

Going later this afternoon to take more pictures.

Ok, tried on the wheels from my new scooby to this one and it seems there is far less of a problem than I originally thought.

Tracking is way off as can be expected for such a heavy knock, but the suspension seems intact and not bent. The camber on that side looks a little pronounced, but this can probably be easily rectified at a garage.

Suspect this just needs a new alloy, a new rear tyre and a trip to the garage to get the tracking sorted out and it will be absolutely fine.

Good news!!!

im interested in seeing the pics, id be surprised if it just needed tracking doing after a knock like that, after all its designed to fold to save the chassis
