WRX STI WR1 No 241
I'm thinking about going to check this motor out and maybe to buy. Does anyone on here know the car or have any information about it? Are there any pro's or con's with these cars. Also are there any things I should look out for if I decide to go any view the car? Cheers

My old car. I brought it cheap locally, was very much a used family car. Every panel had a mark on it, wheels were v tired. Had a FSSH with it and I know it had a rear end shunt when I brought it, the hinges must have been bent a bit as it made a noise each time you shut the boot. Drove Ok, no issues, engine pulled well. I'd say most of the 80k it had done when I had brought it was shopping and school trips with the occasional blast. Must have had a re-spray. If you can extend the budget this one would be a better bet. Well looked after example:

Just to add to these comment as to trusting me selling you this car.... and as for the people saying about the fact i am not willing to put a warranty on the car. If you read the add or look closer on ebay you will see that i have 2 adverts for this car and it does state that there is some marks to the wheels and to the bonnet .
have offered it at a very low price with the option to even offer me a little less and this will come with no warranty.
Or you can have it at the higher advertised price with a full service any paint work rectified and the wheels refurbished and 3 months nationwide warranty.
I sold the car to the previous owner over a year ago but he has upgraded to a Low mile WR1 which i sourced for him.

Right First off i do know the sales of goods act and the new owner is more than aware of the defects with the paint and that the front near side wing door have been painted in the past as this has all been pointed out to him and as for the warranty ( a warranty would only cover the mechanical side of the car which i am more than happy to warrant with the new keeper it is nothing to do with the condition of the paint and panels..)
For people to comment on something with out them actually coming and looking at the car there selves to me seems like you are all keyboard bashing fools who need to get a life.
Any of you know how the law stands regarding slander as some of you may be finding out quicker than you though....

It's the no mechanical warranty bit that just raised alarm bells with me. Now people have pointed this out, the seller has agreed to offer a warranty, which he has to do by law anyway.

Slander - here we go again, another one without the actual capacity to understand the legality of 'slander', always seems to be a trader who is breaking the law that mentioned 'slander'. lol. Seen it all before with our friends in Cheshire
