Doesn't sound right to me why they would end up getting there hands on a wr1 :/ any Subaru owner knows you'd get more money for it through a private sale if it's been looked after etc.. Maybe some numpty owned it and part ex'd it or maybe it's been passed round like a bag of sweets. Personally I'd stay away from it for that reason but let is know how you get on.

WR1's go for 10k all day long. I wouldn't let anything but having a look at it put me off, you've no idea how they've got it so why let the type of garage put you off?
There was Astons, GTR's, Bentley, Rolls, going for sale at British Car Auctions, so no stretch of the imagination they could have got it from somewhere like that.

Just another special edition mate. I'm a confessed fan but I appreciate what you mean. Its just an STi with a bit of a tickle in a different colour dress.

Not strictly true is it? DCCD, More Power out the box and better handling upgrades. Sure they have a shorter ratio gearbox as well?
