may be in the market for a new impreza, mine is a little tired and needs a load more work so on the look out for a new car. i want to stay in the fols as i have really enjoyed the past 3 years impreza ownership. there are so many dogs out there but stumbled on this one which seems to fit the bill nicely

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/s...

ignoring the ironman under bonnet graphics, it looks tidy. have mailed the guy and he isnt a million miles away (unlike mose others that seem to be in scotland or manchester)

always dubious of power claims but this does seem to have the paperwork to back it up.

i'm not on any of the owners clubs anymore so cant try and find it that way.

so...

thoughts?

cheers,
Dave

i did think that. its 11 years old so slightly less than 1 owner a year is a bit odd.

i'm waiting for an HPI check to come back on it.

I agree in part wink but I like the "History" provided but unverified wink

To me most owners are ANAL and keep receipts for even air fresheners wink


I'm still wary of amount of owners but maybe due to it's a WRX and not an STi wink

I noticed that one on PH the other day - looks quite nice, and seems a lot of car for the money, especially with the engine upgrades, and the wheels on it (assuming they're genuine).

Not quite the same, but my Blobeye is for sale at the moment, and certainly not a dog in the slightest:

I see your point, but mine is a WRX not STi and im the 3rd owner since 2002. smile

High number of owners to me says its got problems, more so if it's in a short period e.g. over the last few years, not sure if this one is like that though!

Lots of better ones out there. I wouldn't lose sleep over missing out on this one.
