savage bulldogs Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Bugeye (01 to 52 plate) or blobeye (03 plate onwards) sti would probably be the best starting platform. As the engines and gearboxes are much stronger and give more headroom for project creep . If your sure that you'll keep it relatively standard and won't eventually want over 330hp the a low mileage blobeye wrx is probably the way forward imo . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPJH10 Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 Looking for something newer age wise. No an I 100% won't be doing power upgrades may do handling. How much would I expect to pay for one, best places to look an what's the expens on running one. There is no Subaru dealer now in Cardiff an have no idea where the next one is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffLeggy Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Some examples for your sort of budget. You would pay a lot more through a Subaru dealer typically. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201601399255 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311666400145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoobyghost Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Look for a Subaru specialist rather than a Subaru dealer. It's a minefield of course but you'll pay less labour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
