Thinking about about getting back into a subaru

[Paddy corcoran]

Hi lads/ladies looking for some help thinking about getting back into have a subaru kids are getting big, been to long came across a uk wrx maby someone has had this car or know some information thinking about going looking at it today and yes it needs work but I just don't won't buying one that's gone to far if anyone knows the car or anything about it would really appreciate it

Welcome along man, I seen it yesterday, very vague add, doesn't give much about engine, mileage, mods even. Maybe someone here will know the car but I'd be asking for a lot more info from seller too
Arches supplied, but they're cheap enough to buy, it's fitting and painting can get costly as you know. Try get someone to give a ball park on price there so you know what you have, and if there's rust on the arches, it's probably on sills and stuff also. Good thorough check needed

Get your hand up into the rear shock towers . They do rot there also. You wouldn't see 1500 repairing to rear arches with welding and paint. Not every bodyshop will take that kind of work on either.

Welcome back
Really at this stage you would want to see it on a lift and know what your looking at and run an inspection camera down the inside of the sills and rear arches to make sure there not gone too far .
