They got wider in each shape update. Bugeye were best for the lanky folks (me included, although maybe not after Christmas! ;)), blob got a bit wider and hawkeye were wider again. The hawk sti's i've sat in are less supportive on the sides, don't hold you as well in the corners imo.

Not sure why you found a hawk with narrow seats? Pretty sure there was no different in hawk seat design between wrx/sti other than colour, but someone might be able to correct me on that?

Nice! :rofl:

Bet that was once a tidy import wagon under there, some people eh :doh:

cheers for reply steve, i will have to check them out again this was a few years ago i tried out a hawk just sure i remember it generally not feeling as big inside including seats as my blob at the time

I will defo look at and try a couple of classics as well as blobs. Really like the look of the p1 as well. Can't wait to get out and get one sorted now. :drive:

Yes! That's the ticket!!!!

I always found the hawks seats unsupportive and on several occasions nearly changed them. I found the blob seats much better.

Bugeye Sti seats were fantastic (for std seats) much better than the Hawk. Blobs not sure as never had one. Fugly seats are ****e to! :drive:

Matt23 might be selling his and it's mint:five:

Just seen that thread. I will send him a pm. :ok:

Looks nice but I am struggling with 8k for a 2003 car. :|

Not even a car wash?? :polish::lol:

Good spec P1 (with the usual rust) http://bbs.scoobynet.com/subaru-444/...50-1000-a.html

Mr JRicer also looks interested ;)

This looks pretty good.

Looks ok apart from wheels look :vom:

If my contract doesn't get renewed or I can't find another job in Feb I may be able to do you a deal on a nice, red, low mileage classic :-(

Yup, the wheels would have to go.

Well, for your sake mate, I hope you can get something sorted. Looks nice and clean that one.

Very nice and clean looking and the red paint work is gleaming for the age of the car

It does have centre caps on the wheels now, unfortunately its started to go round the rear arches but other than that its lovely inside and out. Not the end of the world if it has to go, I'll find another one if I sort out another job.

Clean low mileage 1-Owner MY2000 Classic in Hastings
http://www.garageonthegreen.com/used...saloon_648.htm

I spoke to the owner of this garage, who also owns the local SEAT dealership, last week, as he know's my fondness for Subaru's. He mentioned he had picked up a MINT Subaru. At the time I thought he was talking about a Newage as he called it a WRX, but it turns out to be a UK classic.

This garage does not have rubbish and it is not his normal age or type of vehilce, but he thought it was so good he would give it a go.
I have not yet seen it personally, but would confidently say it must be pretty clean.

Nige and Tim will also probably confirm that they do stock a good car........

That's a really good find Scott. Only 65k miles too

:agreed: but is it a special enough model?

It's exactly how mine started ;)..... nice project :D:D:D:D

Thank you Scott, that looks spot on. I will give him a call in the morning and get my butt over there.

I'll be around if you need me.....

That is a mint classic and is also a bargin at that price .

£220 road tax? my bug is £270 a year, looks very clean and the fastest colour as well. is it a bit overpriced? would like to sell my jdm bug for that price.

I sold mine for that price 6 years ago with 62'000 miles 2 owners

I thought so too, £4k is well into newage territory now :(

An STI or type r/ra and it'd be justified....

You could have mine for a lot less and we all know red ones are faster :-)

I've seen it. It's very clean. As for price yes a little over priced for the average rusty one. On the other hand try & find a 1 owner classic with 69k genuine on it. :drive:

Thats cool nige. I am trying to get over there but am working friday and sat although I am trying to rearrange some stuff for saturday as I'd like to see it.. As you say, it is a little heavy on price but then there are not many originals left like this, so worth paying a bit extra for i think.

If its good I would just be straight with him and say what's its worth to you. I reckon with a bit of haggling he should let it go for 3.5K. He probably picked it up for 2K or less, and only just got it, so a quick turn for him at 3.5K and he should be well happy. Even dealers will do a deal.

Well, there you go. Just shows that a good car will get decent money and still sell quick. Gutted, as I has planned to go over saturday, but didn't due to the snow. Got tomorrow off and thought i would get over there, but its gone :-(

how are getting on with the other two cars mentioned here?:razz:

That's a shame mate, as you say just shows what a good'un will fetch.

Its new owner probably owned a BM and got sick of not being able to go anywhere in the snow - impulse buy i bet ;)
