There is (or was) one on gumtree for sale, listed as being in belfast. Might be it.
Think your right thought I had seen an advert for one on Gumtree but it's removed already.

So a bit of a boring update for most (but great for geeks like me) is that I got the BIMTA certificate for my car (for the pricey sum of £49+VAT)
It basically ensures that the mileage on the car when brought over from Japan is genuine. To be honest to drive the car and sit in the interior (which I will get decent photos of soon!) you can tell that it's genuine. But, I like to be sure
Everything tied up with what it should have so I'm a happy man and it's a nice little piece of history to go with the car and one which very few other ones have!
It came over in 2004 with 57,000 KM and now has just over 100,000KM on the clock which works out as you can see at just over 62,000 miles. As I mentioned before I won't ever take the clocks out of KM because it's more original and I hate silly MPH sticker overlays on clocks almost as much I hate random gauges everywhere.
Now enough of that! Let the modding commence, haha!

V5 will look fine it was never changed over
Yes it's for sale, having looked into it the Imprezas seem to be huge work to make any sort of gains with where as Evo 6s would be a much better base. I'm planning on getting a fresh import EVO 6 shortlyz

Oh well deposit taken. Don't even think it sat half an hour before I had the call. The EVO 6 I drove was a total let down. I had the cash to buy it and it didn't pull anywhere near as well as what I expected so back to the drawing board lol.

Could get around 350bhp out of a blobeye STI, not massive horse power but stick on a bigger turbo and a few other supporting mods and you should see yourself over 400bhp
same here, stunning looking car.
