Nice car! I've already admired your ad, actually. A lovely example.

I can see how you might feel aggrieved by my implication that all EJ25s are ticking time-bombs. However, it's hardly undocumented that these engines fail. at all ages and with little warning. I'm not making that up, and have experienced it first hand, to my (massive) cost. I think it's great that you've had a good one, and I'm sure anyone looking for an unmodified car will be delighted to find yours for sale.

However, I hope you understand that I have to justify my upgrades, how they've been chosen, and be very clear about the reasons for them, and why a buyer might want to take that into consideration when choosing a 2.5 STi.

Don't worry, there are still plenty buyers out there who wouldn't touch anything that has been modified. Good luck with your sale!

On ebay now, in case anyone fancies a cheeky bid. Sensible reserve, and it must go!

Have you had any interest? I've just bought a Boxster S for the summer but can't bring myself to try selling the Spec D after all the money I've chucked at it, so I've SORN'd it until autumn. If I thought I could even get £10k I'd think about selling, but any less and it's just not worth selling.

The ebay auction didn't work. Only traders bidding. However, my dad's offered to garage it and insure it for a while, so that takes care of my space and no-claims transfer issues. So another month is not a problem for me if you want a chat. PM me!
