Link?

 

 

Looks like a nice car mate, and the S202 has a great reputation. Let's hope it's as good in the metal...

 

It's not an S202. It's an STi Limited
Very big difference, but the advert would lead you to think otherwise

 

 

Very missleading advert indeed, as said trying to make you think it's an s202 in all but name.

given its not as s202 seems pricey to me.

 

I cant click on the link on my work computer, but I suspect its the black bugeye on ebay that has S202 riddled all over the advert?


Over £9k if I recall, that's a lot of money for Bugeye STI, don't be fooled by the "S202" here and "S202" there jargon. It's not an S202, its a uk STI.


I recall an S202 being for sale on here some time ago for around £10-11k.


Robert.

 

well spotted..
Here's a nice spec C
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2002-Suba...from=R40&rt=nc

Hurst's have an S202 in but I think he's asking about £16k iirc

 

 

yep thats the one

 

need to start with a 5 or 6 to be worth it.

what is your actual budget?

 

 

A Pretty low budget for that sort of spec, will be on the ropier end of them. I would suggest seeing if you can up the budget, or lower the spec a bit.

 

Is the rear boot spoiler off a WRX up on riser blocks ??

Over selling.........to beef up price me thinks.....

 

The advert is very misleading, but it's a rare JDM car. The Limited had more torque than the regular STIs & featured the higher spoiler & front splitter.
If you can get the price down & you like it then get it bought, it will be a long time before another one of those turns up

 

A nice widetrack blobeye is what I would go for out of those three, and wouldn't get too hooked on JDM or UK if new to Subaru, take each car on its own merits. As Tidgy said you may need to try and stretch that budget a little, 10k gets a lot of a nice car.


Without causing a **** storm here, the Hawkeye UK is 2.5 so you need bare that in mind - do your research.


Your in safe hands on this forum, most speak of experience and knowledge, but like where we all live, there is always one village idiot who will contradict or offer poor advise, but the genuine enthusiasts will help guide you - ps to edit, everything above is good solid advice and good points raised - don't wish to offend anyone

 

LOL @ 53


This seems a good buy, high mileage but a lot of car for the money https://www.scoobynet.com/subaru-444...uk-2006-a.html

 

 

Anyone else know of any decent ones for sale?

 

s202 rule esp yellow ones

 

The one which Rob mentioned a few posts up ?

 

That as been doing the rounds for some time. I am sure he was arguing the toss with a number of people a few months ago on FB.

Much smoke and mirrors.

 

 

Looks lovely, why have they put 10/60 oil in it?

 

Did your budget just go up like 5k? :/
