Hello people.

Going to have too many cars, so the Impreza needs to go.
You know how highly I rate this car. Will knock down price a bit for people from here.

I’ll give you £5k. Cash.

Look, I've told you, I'm not buying an Impreza.

(spammed it around though)

Hi Mark. Are you getting an additional car then - and if so, what?

Is the driving position similar to a Taxi? Would you take £10k for it? :lol:

Nothing exciting. Just a 2011 BMW 530d Msport. (Ex father in law's)

This will one day morph into a Golf R (7.5), but not for a year or two.

Depends on the type of taxi. If a Subaru taxi then yes, very similar.

(10 is too low)

Well yes then, it meets all of those criteria. Automatically changes gear when you press down a pedal and move the stick as well!

Clearly you should get rid of the 530d and replace it with a nice Mondeo.

Up for £3500, but £4500 for you ;)

I'm sure he'd have gone for it had I not missed that part.

Damn!

I was really tempted to contact you two and a half years ago, I even asked Mike1215 to send all the Spec C reviews to me, but in the end I went with 996 C2 as I had wanted a 911 since I was a kid.

I can’t believe a special car like this is cheaper than other so called ‘collectable’ Imprezas (RB320, P1 etc).

From what I’ve read, a lot of these ended up going to Europe, Germany specifically.

Somebody please buy it and keep it in the forum. Special car and very well priced. 8-)

Indeed. I wish I had the spare cash/space, I'd have it.

It makes my blood boil to see the prices that RB320s and WR1s go for. The 2.5l engine is garbage.

I can't believe you're selling it :(

I'd buy it if I had the space!

Trouble is it looks like a 6 grand car and for that reason you'll not get a buyer soon.

Best of luck with the sale Mark, but I have to agree with Broccers, albeit in a slightly-less-angry-at-life way :lol: - the market for a Spec C is going to be very small, isn't it?
