Is it definately a JDM WRX or is it a UK Turbo?

Im guessing its going to be a UK Turbo due to the colour and the prodrive exhaust and claimed FSH.
If its mint up to 4k, certainly wouldnt go lower then 3.5k.
Full History and condition is paramount, late UK classics are sought after if top condition.
if its JDM WRX 3k tops of course IMHO

Well i wont list the technical differences, the wiki page for imprezas is pretty much accurate so good place to start if you want to research it.
All WRX Classics are JDM imports, but ive never seen one in dark blue (mica).
See last posts for approx values though and pistonheads will give you a good idea as well.

prodrive exhaust system was just bought and fiitted as the old box had gone.

its not mint, as far as i know it has this 1 dent on it, on the wing.

Ah ok will id be happy to get high 2000`s for it in that case. Market is flooded with them and most enthusiasts will go for a late STi with the average joe blog owner prefering a mint UK classic with comprehensive FSH.

I'd rather have a UK Turbo with history than some clocked, rag'ed old classic WRX.
I'd say its worth between £2-3k.

i said to her knowing nothing about subarus that i reckon its worth £2500 to £3000 coz of the dent on the wing.
ill find out about all the service history which as far as i know is full history.
im gonna give it a valet aswell, then ill get a add on here.

Important thing to look out for: Cambelt is due every 45k or 4 years.. Water pump should be done on the second cambelt change.

What colour was the interior? If it was charcoal/black and a lighter grey both with a really mild tindge of blue then its a UK Turbo.

Im betting its a UK turbo now.
If it has comprehensive FSH its worth getting the dent done and giving the car a through detailing then you could command 3.5k+ imo

Its not my car, but my sister just wants to get rid of it and get a more practical family car as she has just split up with her husband, i dont think she has any intention of repairing the dent
