Such great sales person "IF YOU ARE SERIOUS AND WANT TO BUY THIS CAR PLEASE CALL ME ON THE MOBILE NUMBER PROVIDED. DONT WASTE MY TIME IF YOU ARE BORED AND DONT HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO.
"PLEASE DO NOT BID" - err is that not the point of ebay ? Or its it now just been used by some as cheap advertising ! Ebay should remove items like these !
Nothing wrong with car just over priced IMHO

Imagine if you asked a dealer for £22000 as the part ex price he would laugh in your face. Yes its got a load of mods but £22000 is a bit much

yep P1 i couldnt agree more. Ive seen this car in the flesh and can vouch for it n also say that it is worth what hes asking for but at the end of the day no one will pay that. Personally id pay less than what uve even said still being realistic as modifying burns a hole in the owners pocket but doesnt increase the value of the car as much

It is only worth what somebody is willing to pay, and that ain't gonna pay 22k for a 7 year old, modified, impreza import. Even 22b's are struggling to sell for that sort of money.

In actual fact ure wrong. It still is worth what hes asking but how much a car is worth and how much someone is willing to pay doesnt necssarily mean that the car is not worth the asking amount. A mouthful i know but another example is, look at how many P1s a for sale around 14-16k margin, but people are not willing to pay for some strange reason. Does not mean a P1 is not worth 14k

however from what i think ure trying to say, id like to add that if we went by "a car is WORTH what someone is willing to pay" then cars would be worth jack all. I mean no one wants to pay good money for a car nowadays, they all expect cars for next to nothing. No one is comparing the car to any other, however prices have been compared.

Why pay 14 k for a P1 when you can have an sti type r of the same year which is identical, if not better, (dccd etc) for 8 to 10K??

Is it just me or is it the same as a v.ltd but with a different interior? (i.e. roof scoop, sonic blue etc.) And yes, WAY too much money. If it is a v.ltd, even with said mods, i reckon 18.5k tops.
P.S. found a website the other day. It sell sports and performance cars only, has about 100 cars and 5 of them being uk 22b's. One owned by a Mr.Grist. 25k for 3 of them and 28k for his and another. When's the next lotto draw???

So how can you compare that with a type r that nobody is ever going to pay 22 grand for.
Who is going to pay 22 grand for an 11 grand car. If i was even looking for a type r i'd buy a standard one and save myself 11 thousand pound, which im sure is the same as everyone else would do
