Ah, you caught my post before I realised it was an RA and not an RA-R, if it was an RA-R it would have my deposit down already!! You should have bought my Spec C, I let it go far too cheap!

Yeah 19800 which was a mixture of miles and KM's, think it equated to 15000 miles once converted. I wish I'd held firmer on the price but I'd put a deposit down on the 22B so I needed it gone!

Why advertise a car that the owner doesn't want to sell?

Because if he wanted to sell it, he'd have listed it at a realistic price not a joke one.

Yours Hatch price is a joke to but You bought it
Nothing special with RA above,its for motorsport use,its light for a reason,needs cage-light body but soft.
Standard spec c is ok for road use.

Not all of us enjoy driving old Newages and actually move along with the times

I think you'll find the price I paid for my new car was entirely reasonable thanks very much. There's very little available secondhand with similar performance for the money let alone anything new with a three year warranty.

Were I going to blow £25k on a newage I'd be phoning Torque GT down in Devon.

Someone's selling an eight year old car for probably more than it was bought for, where the market is generally seeing high performance Subarus going for less than they're worth.

ahh now I get you!!! Its a bit steep, but im sure he would realize that when he still got it in a few months time!!!


best example for something like that is this car on e-bay, this car was for sale with the same garage back in 2009 when I was looking for a classic impreza!!!

Far be it for me to start an old chestnut..........

But would it be an S204 then?

Anyway, nice looking car but many competitors that would-be buyers would drool over at that price.
You'd have to be a Subaru nut to pay that sort of money.

No disrespect to anyone (seller or buyers) but I'd think an awful lot of people would look at that ad and say '£25,000 for an 8-yr-old Subaru !!!!!!!!!!!!'

On the jocular side though, imagine a fuller description "cambelt changed at 2,800 miles".

Ive said that before, only a proper Subaru enthusiast will buy that car, same as the white spec c type 20 for sale on here, its the perfect car, but only a real subaru enthusiast can appreciate that sort of car, to normal joe bloggs its a expensive white subaru.
