Highly Modified Subaru WRX Wagon 1998 UK spec

ImageShack - Hosting :: 142ie7.jpg

Right I currently have just put my car up for sale due to the change of jobs and also the fact that the car was no longer big enough so I purchased a Nissan Patrol.

The car was purchased off a friend so I know the history of the car from when it was a 100% standard through to the massive specification that it currently stands at.

I am looking for £5250 ono for the car, which I feel is very fair looking around at various prices.

The car specification is as follows but I am sure there will be bits I miss out as I have gone through the receipts but there is a rather large amount of them.

General Details

The car is a 1998 UK spec WRX wagon
Car has MOT and TAX and has about 6 months of each although this can be negotiated if need be.
Car has zero faults and runs like a dream
Car has recently been serviced and remapped to ensure all is working in tip top condition (which it is)
The car currently runs 349 BHP and 315 lbs although I have been told by my friend and a Subaru tuning garage that the engine is specified for a figure of well in excess of 400 BHP (I can give details of the well know garage should people want to discuss the car) although to go the whole hog would need additional money spent in areas such as the drive train.
The car was rebuilt to the following high specification in September 2006 approximately 13K miles ago. The car has done 120K miles in total but there are hardly any components left that have done anywhere near this mileage.

Body work

Red mudflaps

The body work is very good condition for the year not perfect in every way but it is exceptional condition really as the photos show. There is the odd parking dent etc but nothing that detracts from the look of the car

Brakes

Front and rear disks from later version Subaru 4 pots for the front (will try and find out what model they are from)
Braided Brake hose kit

Car History

The car has a service log book with various stamps from new until now and has all recent receipts since the modifications have begun so the history is very good. The history is not perfect in terms of paper work for its whole life but I do have every bill for every mod no matter how small so you know exactly what you are getting and what has been done

The car has been rebuilt to the current specification in September 2006 when the mileage was around 107K so the current engine has done approximately 13K miles. The engine was given to B.G.V engineering to carry out the rebuild to the specific specification that was requested as they are exceptional engine builders.

If you are seriously interested in this car and have any questions just let me know. This is not your average Subaru and has been built to a far higher engine specification than the actual power suggests and there are no current faults with the car at all.

As mentioned the car is for sale for £5250 however as always I would be open to reasonable offers.

Forgot to add that the car has a tracker as well as well as a toad alarm system

up she goes

A lot of people have asked for some more photos so I have added a lot.

The only changes is that the front now has black sti head lamp covers, which really set it off.

I have also added one showing all the recent receipts that the car has.














Hope that shows the condition of the car as one pic does not do it justice

leegtr

Sorry mate just cleared some room now.

Let me know if there is anything else you need sending as well

leegtr

leegtr

Am I asking to much for the car or do you feel it is good market value?

Probably, but it's finding the right buyer, then it will go. Also, when people realise what road tax they'll be paying next year, I think that classics will increase in value again.

leegtr

Yer there is the tax issue that might help.

Must admit I thought I was offering it at a good price considering the bills for the car must be getting on for the 20K mark.

I might consider dropping the price in a week or so then if it does not sell I will keep the car and sell one of my others.

Thanks for your comments

Lee if you still have it in a couple of months PM me please mate, I'll be a bit better off by then!

leegtr

Will try to remember mate but I have a bad memory

Might end up keeping it and selling one of the other cars as I do need a better MPG car for work.

Must admit think it is a bad time to try and sell, plus I remember trying to sell my 530 BHP R33 GTR a few years ago took a while because of the spec.

Most people seem to want to start with a standard car and do there own work so they know whats done exactly.

Yeah I think you're right, I couldn't sell my Scooby recently too and it's only mildly modded. I'm looking for a track-day car and your wagon might be perfect, camping gear in the back drive to the nurburgring happy days!!

leegtr

Plenty of room for the camping gear

leegtr

bump for the weekend

GREEDO

leegtr

leegtr

Right decision time for me is looming as the Insurance is up for renewal very soon, and I dont want to insure 3 cars.

I have dropping the price to £4750 in a bid to sell the car.

The car will be for sale for about another 2 weeks, until the insurance is duea and then if it is not gone i will be selling another car and keeping this (more fun I am sure )
