Default Looking for first Impreza
After nearly falling for an ebay scam I am looking again for my first Impreza.

Does anyone know of this car? Should be pretty memorable...

Whatever you look at (and it looks like you're in the market for an early new age or late classic sti) rust is your enemy, rear arches, suspensions turrets, sills and on at least one early new age I've seen, behind the battery tray and into the wheel arch. Other than that, knocking engines, noisy gear boxes, seized brake calipers, cam belt being due, budget tyres, head gaskets and leaky rocker cover gaskets are things to look out for as they're not a cheap fix. Also keep an eye out for cheap induction kits, dump valves and front Mount intercooler with no evidence of a re map to support the mods. Don't be put off, there's plenty of good ones out there.
