saw a impreza estate last night do £650 quid at auction, it had gold sti v3 alloys,morretts,the silver/black cloth seats and 81k miles,it was a turbo and didn't sell as the owner wanted a grand. thats cheep but not if the clutch or gearbox is fooked.
regards omegas,if you bought a 2 grand good 02 diesel you would probably not lose much if anything on it as they hold money really well the older they get. just try driving one to see,they are rear wheel drive and a cracking tow car or load carrier.
i just wouldn't get a petrol at the mo.
