Default The Right Car just at the Wrong Time

Well I managed to get back and look at the k-reg WRX and the engine was very clean and pretty standard which I wanted. But at the moment its the Right car but at the Wrong time

What with one thing and another like a holiday coming up in the next fortnight and money tied up in different places one being the VTS I couldnt quite get the capital together in one place and with the cost of the car itself around £4k or just under add £700 insurance (fully comp with elephant.co.uk) and £100 for 6months tax it just pushed the car out of my budget (for now).

Both me and the missis have talked it over and we're save abit more money and look nearer the summer time but I will find out as much as I can on here so I know just what Im looking at.

Just like to say thanks for all the help so far and look forward to taking part in the community even tho I havent quite just the car

vts, as mentioned previously, 4k for a k plate is far too much. Would only pay that for a concours condition car.

But like rossyboy says, good luck in your search

MY wrx will be for sale in the summer, and shes pretty clean!

Just had cambelt and service, scooby clinic looked her over and only prob was rocker covers, but its booked in at subaru for those in two weeks!

4k is about right for a looked after one, there are cheaper ones abouyt but i bet they will be money pits! My mate looked at a 3k one and it knocked its **** off!

Pm me nearer the time if your keen!
