Tamworthbay Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I bought this to scratch an itch but the itch has got worse and I have a desire for a turbo now (yes I know it will end badly). This is a 2000 2.0 awd sport special. It's a limited edition one of 250. That means it gets the awesome seats that are ridiculously comfy and probably a load of other stuff that I have no idea of. It runs very nicely and goes well and being a non turbo it even returns decent mpg. The bodywork is sound with only one small area of bubbling on a rear arch. The pics probably make it look a bit better than it is and the passenger side has a few smallish dints but nothing serious. MOT until 11th may next year. There is a fat wedge of documents and history but I am still trying to get the previous owner to get off his are and post them to me. It owes me £1200 but I would take £950 off a shitter. I could also be interested in a cheap px in the deal as the other half is after something sporty and cheap.more pics to follow....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthbay Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Forgot to say that it has one of those amazing exhausts that also doubles a place to store scaffold poles or spare shoes. Subtle it isn't. It has a full set of sexy good years in fine fettle and ready for a roundabout near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthbay Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 And in case you missed it, it's yellow......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Its "mostly yellow". You must unfortunately loose a few custard points for the black "speed" stripe and trunk-lid. Not many though. Partridge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthbay Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 The stripe is removable, as for trunk, I can't see an elephant anywhere but it may have picked oneup on one its many rally successes as I am sure you know that EVERY Impreza ever sold has won at least ten rallies before its allowed to leave the factory.

Cavcraft Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I think you're missing a(n) advertising trick here. You absolutely HAVE to make ridiculous/spurious BHP claims backed up by such evidence as 'it's faster than my mates M3 BMW' and 'the last owner told me it was running 397BHP as he fitted the K&N filter off a Saxo and drilled holes in the indicators'.

I could not possibly make any such spurious claims, and I don't need to as I have proof it has been used as a test car in case the thrust SSC fails to start.

New POD Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I am glad it is sold. I am drawn to Yellow cars, and my wife and kids would have made my life (more) miserable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garbaldy Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I am quite shocked it didn't fetch more than that, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealtainn Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I would have thought it would fetch more than that too seeing as we are due our annual does of Daily Fail OMGSNOWCHAOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthbay Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 That was a hefty shitters surcharge you put on that there Subaru chap..... you are having a kin laugh. I thought it would go for £1200 all day. Never been so gutted at selling a car. I had so much interest and loads of people view who said they would bid at the end but didn't. If I had known it would go for that I would have kept it for spares. You win some you lose some........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
