iv found someone to do the arches - just need the engine doing !

en4 - herts

so I still have my 2000 - its currently off road but looking for someone in EN4 area who can sort rear wheel arches ( rust starting to come through ) and also replace the head gasket and renew all the pipework Ideally looking for a long term magician to slowly renovate and upgrade

Hey what I really want is some advice - looking at the genuine parts they all look as bad as mine - not super fussed about keeping it original ( unless you guys think otherwise ) just what's best . Also I should maybe change things like the air filters - I'm sure there must be something better in 2020 I also have a boot leak - anyone else had this ? the spare tyre is sitting in water - not a great look I've done lots of work last year - new drive shaft , steering rack , radiator and header tank ( sorry , I'm not a mechanic , just a driver 😂 ) I also need the rear wheel archers looking at , just a bit of blooming there If there was someone within say 20 miles who could help out that would be great p

Hi I have a 2000awd in need of a new exhaust amongst other things 😂 it’s currently completely original apart from a respray . can anyone recommend someone who can show my car some love in the north london area ?

hi matt thx for looking but these look worse than mine 😂 she's looking ok now bodywork done

Hi Matt if you fancy having a look I would be interested , its the rear door cards on mine that are tatty with lots of tears in the handles and the little grey screw covers are all missing . Nice part of the world your in ! P

Hi Again so Ive decided to hang on to this , the car has had all the bodywork done and I am now looking to tart up the interior . I have a new drivers seat which ws the main bit of wear but I've been looking for ages for an interior better than mine , in particular the rear door cards ( which you wouldnt expect to be too bad but I transport a lot of equipment in mine so its pretty shabby ) anyone got any ideas , or what later interiors ( if any ) might fit ? P

Thanks to Mattb for his help and advice . So I know given the bodywork and milage that I'm not going to get 5k ( at the moment ) but thats a good reason to post it here . Im going to get the cosmetic body work bits done and keep as a fun summer car rather than my daily drive but will remain open to offers ;)

This is my very much loved Subaru impreza . I am the second owner and this has been my daily drive for many many years . It is mechanically perfect , 4 good tyres and alloys recently refurbished ( hence the colour change ) . Regularly serviced although completing the logbook has wained as I never expected to part with it . All repairs have fastidiously used genuine parts . Drivers seat base recently changed along with the header tank ( see photo ) The lacquer has started to perish in several places and the drivers door has been damaged - I had a quote for £1000 to repair this and respray all the lacquer . Some of the engine hoses have also started to perish and whilst I have been systematically changing them I have to accept that this car needs to be loved and I just don't have the time anymore , I just need something that I can drive in central London every day ... No real idea what its worth but I am resolute in that it needs to find the right home . Mileage is at 145k . I would ideally like to get around 5k for this as its worth that much the me to keep as a fun weekend car ,
