let me know if you do decide to break, id be after a few panels if theyre 230 feather white which they should be.
Reality is when you start throwing money on old cars for mods the only way to get some of your money back is to break, sad but true.

I want both drivers side doors, both front wings if they are mint?, boot if it has no spoiler holes??.

Let me know

Cheers Pete.

Gary has very limited parking at his house. They now have 4 cars between them, so something had to give

I'm hoping Gary will break the white one, so i can keep mine and put some of the good bits from his onto mine

It's all up and running, but i have ended up with a Corsa to get to work in, and it seems pointless keeping the white one when it won't get used at all, aswell as having to find somewhere to keep it.

Don't really want to break it, as we've only just recently put the new engine in, so seems a waste.

Putting her up for sale again.

If any of you know anyone in the market for a cheap Impreza, plase sent them this way.

It's running the best it has since i bought it, just needs the rocker cover gasket doing. (Have a genuine subaru gasket set here ready)

Looking for around £2700 for her.

She has to go this time.

May even be selling the Mercedes too

Had enough of the scoob now

Clutch is starting to slip
Cam cover gasket needs doing (Have the gasket set ready)
Handbrake light is on
Boost leak somewhere

Don't have the money or enthusiasm to fix it now

If it goes before new year, i will take £2000 for it

Just want it gone so I can move on to my next project which is NOT going to be an AMG

Spec is at top of this thread

running about 280 bhp on standard ecu, got the one from crowman which will come with the car, that will be running about 310 bhp

Tax is till end of Jan 2010 & MOT is Aug 2010

slips a little in high revs, but still pulling really well



i'm so tempted to keep it, but after 3 years I fancy a change.

It's had regular oil changes (at least 2 a year with Mobil1)
Always warmed & cooled

Highly commended award at Jap bash 2008

Im liking the list, has anything changed since you put that up or if I have it will I get it all?
I have noticed a few threads and you do seem to change your mind quickly I know the feeling, ive only had the wagon a few months but its not really for me.
Ive had some money come my way so should be able to do something pretty quick, just waiting on it clearing in my account banks take too long.

I missed out on the other one you guys had, and was a bit gutted but didnt have the money at the time, although I prefer the look and spec of yours

If you have got a few more pics that would be good

Cheers

To be honest, mine is a lot better than the other one we were selling, for not much more money

If mine didnt have the faults i would be asking around the £3000 mark

know what you mean about banks, hate them

I dont mind waiting
