Default what do you think of these 2?

2007 Subaru Impreza 4 Door Saloon 2.5 WRX-STI TYPE UK PPP



2007 SUBARU Impreza 2.5 WRX STi Type UK


cant understand why the first one is 3k more? is it because its round london way?
think i would trust the first one more because its a main dealer, or is that the wrong opinion?

anyway what do you all think?

the diffrences are that the more expensive one has the ppp fitted, prodrive wheels, prodrive mudflaps, front splitter and lower and upper chrome grills. now this is a very nice car with a lot of desireable add ons, but underneath is the same car as the other one. if you have the extra cash available and would of been spending anyway on mods then the more expensive is the one to go for as nothing else really needs doing to it. ps it also has 1k less on the clock, but expensive all the same. as for the main dealer well that is definately an advantage

Both very nice £18000 tho its lot of money. Personally I don't like the Prodrive wheels, so I would go for the cheaper one and have it mapped. done .


How much for a STI hatch now

i totally agree with this and would say its the nicer car out of the 2 all day long but it is rather pricey at 18,000

if you could negotiate an extended warranty, next service free of charge, 1 years tax and a full tank of juice. then you should be on to a winner.

lovely clean car always sounds a bit dodgy and the dealer car is over priced - all the extra bits on the car shouldn't add to the price. What about this one??

thanks all.

am i right in thinking if it has the pro drive pack then it should have a certificate?

what should the bhp be for the ppp?

i much prefer the hawkeye tbh, not to keen on the new shape. cant see why they didnt make it for a few more years!

not keen on the wheels also but guess thats a simple fix.
