4 brand new Yokohama Parada Spec -2 tyres on fully refurbished 17” OZ racing ‘Super Leggera’ Wheels (Anthracite by ‘The wheel specialist’) All work carried out less than 300 miles ago plus recent radiator, rear drop links, hard brake lines, (both sides) front struts, top mounts, airflow meter and an air-con recharge.
It has a NavTrack (Standard)tracking system fitted, a Cobra 0802/0803 CAT2 Immobilizer and a Meta Aquila (M99T) CAT1 Alarm / Immobilizer. It also has the benefit of a Multi-T gear shift lock. (I have all documentation relating installation / fitting certificates, spare key’s, alarm fobs etc.)
Mechanically it’s a completely standard car with the exception of the OZ ‘Super Leggera’ wheels. I have the original 16” lightweight 5 spoke gold STi wheels, which are included in the sale. They have also been refurbished to a very high standard with no curbing etc. They are fitted with Toyo Proxes T1R tyres. (Please see pictures of them on the car.)
Aesthetically, it has the benefit of ‘Jewel’ side repeaters, front indicators and side lights, ‘Black’ wedges and a STI V6 style front splitter – all easily removed if required. A genuine PIAA driving lamp kit is also included but the lamp units are not presently fitted. (Please see pictures - all switching, harness / wiring is present behind the covers). The ‘wrx’ emblem has been removed from the rear.
A set of ‘sti’ mats are also fitted along with a Kenwood KDC-334SA single CD / radio with component speakers. The original signal flare is present in the passenger foot well.
This car is in stunning original condition, with no marks, scratches or parking dings whatsoever. (It has a few very small stone chips to the front bumper / bonnet leading edge that have all been carefully touched in.) The interior is also in excellent condition with no marks, wear or damage to the seatbacks, or alcantera inserts.
I have the original sales invoice, white service book, sales brochure and copies of the preceding V5 documents. In addition, I have all of the previous MOT certificates and loads of receipts / invoices for work carried out since new.
It’s had 5 previous keepers (with Warrender being the 1st registered keeper as original importer)
HPI clear - with certificate, Currently SORN / MOT end of February 2010.
So, if you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to e-mail and I can provide you with a link to Photobucket for many more additional pictures. A pre-purchase inspection is also more than welcome – should this be desired.
To conclude, a rare car, with a very recent engine rebuild, new clutch, new brakes and tyres, etc. This car requires nothing other than a new caring enthusiast to enjoy and is definitely a future classic.
Offers of, or in excess of £5,750.
Serious enquiries only please with no speculative offers less than the asking price and no part-exchange as I already have sourced my next car.
Also, no agencies, motor traders or canvassers please.

Thanks rooferman and AndyC 772 for the positive comments – I just want to make sure that anyone interested has all of the information that they may require – so sorry for the long post!
The car is great (and i'm a perfectionist when it comes to my cars) so I’m confident the 1st serious person to come and view it - will buy it!
Cheers

Hi MozzaITA,
Thanks for the info. about your selling experience. I hope mine will go to a good home (and be well looked after!). I feel its well worth the asking price - especially if you are after an original example – which is quite rare to see these days
