Description

Imported in April 2019 by Torque GT at 67,445 miles currently on 89,969, I'm the second UK owner having owned the car for 3 years. The car is generally stock (STI Genome backbox was factory fitted), the only modifications are a Sony XAV-AX5000 Android Auto/Carplay head unit (Original Japanese unit included) and the original wheels being painted gold rather than the factory silver. Full-service UK history 01/25 - Millers Oil and Subaru Oil Filter, Air filter 02/24 - Timing Belt, tensioner, all pullies, water pump, Millers Oil, Subaru Oil Filter, Coolant, Bosch Fuel Filter 01/23 - Oil and Subaru Oil Filter. 05/23 - Replaced the Rocker cover gaskets and spark plugs 01/22 - Oil and Subaru Oil Filter, Millers Differential and Gearbox Oil Service 05/21 - Oil, Oil Filter, Fuel Filter and Air Filter. 03/20 - Oil, Oil Filter & Front and Rear pads and disks. 07/19 - Oil, Oil Filter, Air Filter and Timing Belt kit 12 Months MOT - with no issues or advisories during my ownership. 4x New Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres fitted less than 100 miles ago I have spent quite a bit of time sourcing various miscellaneous parts including but not limited to Both door gussets (As these age they cause wind noise) Various clips (Undertray clip, interior trim clips) Rear window lower seal (Sun damaged in Japan) Front Window Seal (Sun damaged in Japan, included but not fitted due to needing to remove the windscreen) Undersealed using Dinitrol on Import Mechanically no issues whatsoever, ready for another 12 months of enjoyment! Bad parts:- Torque GT refurbed the alloy wheels in early 2022. Unfortunately, they have deteriorated during only 3 years, the offside rear is by far the worst, my hesitancy to refurbish the wheels before sale is solely due to not knowing whether to paint them the factory silver or keep the gold, I much prefer blue and gold theme, but appreciate some would prefer the slightly more understated silver wheels. The offside rear quarter has a scratch and some paint bubbling, due to a ladder falling against it (I still haven't forgiven myself for this). Some marks on the roof bars due to fitting a roof rack If you have any questions please let me know.
