Mag featured STI V5 - £6500 o.v.n.o
As most of you know i bought this car in july and after just 10 days of owning the engine went. Well i was unsure of what to do but in the end decided to get it repaired as it was worth nothing broken. Anyway, the car was sent to API engines and had a full engine rebuild.
The car is worth every penny as this car really is immaculate, body work is mint, interior is mint, no wear anywhere, and of course the engine has been fully rebuilt by the best in the business...API
The car was also photographed for Japanese performance magzine, Jap mag have been running features in their magzine giving people a guide to buying "your first skyline" for example, but this time they were doing a feature on "Your first STI". They were looking for a stage 1 STI (mine) and a stage 2 STI (Daone's off scoobynet) The feature will be a 6 page feature. The photoshoot was at quintec test track in surrey. Had a great day and i'm sure the feature is gonna be awesome. The magazine feature will be in january's issue which comes out in december.
I've decided to sell this car as i have always wanted a P1 and feel that now is the time to get one before i spend anymore money on this one
Here's the spec and pics
The car itself is an Ex Graham Goode owned car and has loads of Graham goode goodies on the car which help it push out 340bhp. The power of the car is amazing, i can't stop grinning from ear to ear everytime i drive it. My old car was pushing out around 250 bhp, and i thought it was quick, but **** me, this thing is lightning The condition of the car is excellent and it has only done a genuine 55,000. I have loads of receipts for the car and in the last 7 months it has had a new gearbox, new clutch, new flywheel, new diffs and new discs at the cost of £4000, which leaves you with a car that feels so smooth to drive. loads of tax and mot left too

I've been watching this car for ages and I'm very surprised this Is still available - I think this car Is a prime example of the state of the market at the moment..
Excellent perfect example that can't sell it's self..
I've had to re-adjust a few finances with all the credit crunch crap that's about otherwise I'd have had this car by now.
Let me know when you drop it to £5200 cash and I'll have It..
Sorry mate couldn't resist - Free Bttt for ya..

Well done for selling at this time of year. Well worth the asking price.
£7800 in your pocket must feel good in the current market.
Is it a P1 next?

Glad you got something back. Going from Fluffy, my STI5 to an Evo VII is horrible, god awful as a daily driver in comparison, I can't stand the car and want back in a Subaru asap. Had I put it up for sale I would have had a serious look at yours 
. Selling mine was the worst thing I ever did, even though I had no choice at the time .
