Default New Terzo owner - No. 180 (Trying to locate previous owners)

Hi Folks,

I'm now the proud owner of a Subaru Terzo No. 180 (R305BUX), The car is great and largely untouched which I intend to maintain.

This is a bit of a cry for help though as somewhere along the lines the service history has been lost. For a car as original as this I would be over the moon if I could track it down.

I know it's a massive long shot but, hey you never know if you don't ask!

There's a thread dedicated to terzo owners, have a search for it and the previous owners might pop up!

Thanks, I did a search on there and seems No.180 hasn't been listed yet.

Happy to oblige!

This was 10mins into ownership whilst waiting for the Ferry and freezing my @rse off to get a snap.

Do you really think I'm stupid?


You know who you are and how you scammed me!
You're correct your post drew my attention to the fact I hasn't updated my Location.

As for Scamming you? I have no idea what you are talking about. I'm a new owner and put up a genuine post asking for help on this forum.

Can you please elaborate?

I think I'm very sorry mate, I thought you was someone else, hence I've edited my post.
Sincere apologies

I can see you have now deleted your previous post.

I'm guessing you thought I was someone else?

No hard feelings.

I'm the 6th owner. previous owner didn't have the service history either. :-( I only have the green slip from the V5 so far. I should have looked at the V5 the previous owner had.

Tell you what though. I am loving being back in a Scooby!

Wait for the full log book to come and there will be previous owners details where you can write to him.

Would it be worth getting in touch with the dealers with chassis + reg. no?
May lead to nothing, but I found out about where one of my old BMW 328s was serviced this way, no idea if Subaru dealers keep this info or not.

Yeah I could try that. I phoned the last dealer that sold it however they didn't have any details they could give me. Will try and track things back further.

Well this was unexpected.

Took off my passenger footwell to find this!



Ties in with the prodrive exhaust, so I guess at some point my car has had the Prodrive treatment either when new or by a subsequent owner.

Lol, well he knows he's done wrong, I took his word, you know a mans word. That's how kind I am. But there you go, people take advantage of that. It's only minor value but that's not the point.
