yeah i need to stop looking as well, seen a mint type r just went up for sale.

scoobs just dont seem to be selling just now mate.

its a tough market out there just now, and the prices of classics has plummeted due to insurance and fuel costs etc, depends how serious you are about selling it, i know how much i sold it for a few years back and prices have dropped a lot since then, i think if you want to sell it realistically you would have to drop the price to more like £3750, but then if its worth more to you then just keep it as you said . i know how hard it is to sell these now, i bought an immaculate mica red classic from a member on here a year and a half ago, was on 54k, standard, a my00, and i paid more than u are asking. i then did what i probably shouldnt have and modded the engine, hybrid td04, sti top mount, full decat andy forrest remap etc etc was running 305bhp, then when it came to selling it lost a fortune, sold it for 3700, worst thing was it was back up for sale 5 months later as the boy got made redundent and i was watching it on pistonheads as i was toying with buying it back because it was that good, and he dropped the price to £2700 eventually, i was gutted i didnt have the money to buy it back. somebody got an absolute bargain!!!!! anyway good luck with sale, cheers.

iv promised myself my next scoob will be a 3dr, either a v5/6 v-ltd or a p1. just dont tell the misses.

good luck with the sale.

still looking great!

was looking through old pictures of her, one of my favourites.

chris, i got your pm and have replied. this was my first scoob, i still remember the day i went to view it and left my deposit for it. i absolutely loved that car, such great memories, which included picking up my wife and baby son after he was born and taking him home for the first time. the car never let me down once, it had great mods on it when i bought it, the full scoobysport system, the ledas, the hi spec brakes, and when i had andy map her with the ecutek i couldnt take the smile off my face. i still remember her driving away when i sold her, couldnt believe how great she sounded, i was gutted, but unfortunately my circumstances at the time dictated i had to sell her. iv had 2 classics since then, an sti and another uk turbo, but always remember the old mica blue one fondly. my son who is now 4 is subaru daft, he would love it if i brought the old girl home, i know how hard a decision it must be for you, low mileage mint classics are indeed a rare thing these days. pm me mate. cheers, jamie.

lol, ill hold u to that!

im hoping i wont have to sell it tbh, hopefully things will improve over the next couple of months after xmas, i might take it off the road at the end of november as the insurance runs out then and save myself some cash then get it back on the road end of february . said i was going to keep this one as its that good and the wife doesnt want me to sell it either. already had plans for whiteline arbs front and rear and droplinks and a nice set of refurb's prodrive 17" st-2 alloys in silver and it would be perfect.

would love my old one back, first love and all that lol. its on pistonheads and on here and local gumtree, just dropped the price by a couple of hundred as well to see if it stirs up any more interest. feel like im giving it away now.

not sure why iv had such little interest, had two calls in about 5 weeks!! maybe longer!

cheers yes it is mint, but the market seems to be very very slow.

lol. well i had a rather lengthy email from another tyre kicker, asked loads of questions which i responded to, he then phones me a few days later and we chat about the car, i answer all his questions, he says he will come down this weekend to see it ,he is from aberdeen. guess what. never heard from him again. that was last weekend. so why email me and then phone me when u have no intention of buying it?? really annoys me, some people have nothing better to do.

didnt put ono in the add, just the price. i presumed with him flying up etc he wasnt going to haggle, his loss. really pissed me off though!!!
