Well after a few posts and a weekend trailing the internet I found what I had been looking for.

2004 WR (Thanks Tommy) UK STI Blob, 2 owners 35K on the clock, full history - £6995

Pick it up in a week or so once my reg transfer has been done and the very nice dealer has removed two ultra-small door dents.

Here are some pictures - Mods if this is not allowed feel free to remove . . .



Needs a new exhausts, one of the seat runners has tarnished and the boot needs some new carpet as the old one has deformed over time other than that it is pretty minty.

looks nice.
its wr blue not sonic btw

 

Nice car where abouts south are you?

 

Looks good, as above though it's WR blue.

Rear wheels look like they live too far inside the arches for my liking, I know that's how they all are on these but would look so much better with some different offset rims or even some spacers.

 

Totally agree, Prodrive PPF7s and 10mm spacers as soon as I can find a real pair.

 

Very nice. Looking for something similar myself.

 

Just on the outskirts of Portsmouth

 

genuine pf7s cost a few quid nowadays.

 

Yep, good choice. Would look very nice buddy.

 

couldnt agree more

 

Great looking car mate! But i'm biased!

Did you buy this in Bristol?

 

Do you know where you can actually buy them from, I cannot find a pair anywhere.

This was my old one . . .

 

i might be selling mine in the near future.

 

Calling first dibs

@ AWG_STI. Guilty

 

they will be listed under the for sale section on here when the time comes.

 

why did you sell a widetrack version then buy an older narrow track one?

 

How's that for memory! I got mine from the same place having travelled from Essex, thought that carpark looked familiar!

 

Sold it and bought a new 911 C2S then a new GTR and then a CSL, now I have all them out of my system I want something I can drive everyday without worrying about the next service, how much it has dropped in value today or what if . . . .

Without sounding dumb what is the difference between a widetrack and narrow track apart from the track. I know my old one had DCCD which I never got close to using but apart from that are there a lot of differences, did not even know there was a different version until just now.

 

Nice car, but i would say that, mines similar even down to the mileage. good price too!

 

Oohhhhh, they look so much nicer in black.

 

Oh dear...

The widetrack model MY05 compared to the one before MY04, drives very differently. The handling is much improved in a number of areas.

 

oooopppss

 

Even once coilovers, drop links and sway bars are done - is there really that much in it and can it be easily sorted.

Please dont ruin my day.

 

very nice

 

no dccd gearbox and old style interior dccd box will cost about 3k

 

Yes, just read up, 2005 onwards has slightly wider arches at the rear and the lock to lock turn has been shortened.

I can live without DCCD and to be honest the interior is not amazing in any Impreza I have been in, kind of goes with Jap cars in general, although they have come on a long way in the last few years.

To be honest for the price I could not knock it, the miles are low and the interior looks to be in great condition.

Will look for some pics of my old interior later to compare against my new, older interior

 

you could of got a widetrack for 8k fella.

 

Looked around for 8 - 9K cars but could not see anything I liked apart from a very nice fully modded 04 for 8.5K, it only cost me 7 so I am a grand up.

Stupid question but where is the best place to buy some replacement badges and a nice gay pink one for the front grille?
