Hi guys,

I'd like to view this today, does anyone know it? Last owner since 2003

STI V4, does all look well in the photos?

Thanks, Yodi

 

Dont worry about it, 2 1/2 hours round trip for a total shed

 

What was up with it. Hard to come across good classics now adays

 

Went to view,

advert says Mint, immaculate with timing belt done and told clutch done over the phone with receipt. Last T'belt done in early May 2008, 2 different front brake calipers ones said Subaru other said WRX, brake pedal felt terrible, chipped ns headlight, 10+ dents on pass rear door, and lots of dents on all other doors some big, big dent on bonnet, bumper corners all need painting, rear spoiler paint and lacquer peeled over a big area and touched up badly like bumpers, bonnet scoop and grills needed painting.

Basically unlike the advert said, it was far from mint, in fact it's 100% tatty, passenger seat is dried solid where something has spilt, pass door card is split.

The original wheels actually have 4 winter tyres on them, and the 'summer wheels' don't have very good tyres either. No service book at all, looks of historic invoices, one in 2012 and nothing after.

It did drive well apart from the brakes, but by the time I did all the body work, timing belt kit and full service, 4 x tyres, front calipers etc it would be too much for the age/mileage and would rather start off with a better example, although after some back and forth they did drop in price.

Edit to add, looking at their feedback as buyers and sellers, even some of the positive feedback is bad: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3514002690...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

 

Very rare to get a version 4 STI in this condition it does sound alright from the add. It wasn't Cheshire performance was it?

 

No mate they were in High Wycombe, seller details in the advert, like I said feedback says it all really.
