Barry Pelmore 6 Report post Posted August 6, 2017 Very reluctant sale of my 2013, 32,000 mile Subaru BRZ due to my health issues not improving sufficiently. This hugely enjoyable (Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) BRZ is now available for sale. RRG Macclesfield have looked after this car since I bought it in May 2016. They installed a Milltek exhaust and Blitz air cleaner, which have combined to make the mid-range more tractable in this willing, revving engine. I live in Greenfield about 15 miles east of Manchester, although we could discuss meeting elsewhere. The car has a space saver spare wheel. The car is in excellent condition, WR Blue paint, save a few stone chips to the paintwork as is to be expected in four years. Please see attached photos. I am pricing the car for sale at £9,970 ovno, which makes it a very affordable fun car for road and track. Four years old and less than £10K. The cherished number (T4 PGD) – Two Door, 4 Cylinder, Pleasure Going Driving is available by negotiation. Full 30,000 mile service by RRG on 23rd June 2017 and new MOT from 3rd August 2017. The standard numbers are as follows: Engine: 1998cc 4-cylinder Boxer engine. 12:1 compression ratio. BHP – 197 @7000 rpm Torque – 151 ft/lbs @ 6400 – 6600 rpm. Maximum speed – 140 mph (224kmph) Acceleration – (0-62 mph): 7.6 seconds. First registered: 25/02/2013 First registered in UK: 01/08/2015 Previous keepers on V5C: 2 since February 2013.

I'm not going to lie, I am tempted but to be honest and not waste your time, the idea of a jap import puts me off. I used to work at a Nissan dealer when the 350z first launched and there were a load of fair lady imports knocking around that were different specs and not prepped to the same standard and getting parts was virtually impossible. Once the U.K. Cars arrived, the fairladys plummeted in value and no one would touch them. I have no idea if things have changed as it was about 14 years ago but it's the only experience I had with imports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barry Pelmore 6 Report post Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) Hi RichM, Thanks for your reply and the information it contains. It doesn't make exciting reading, but I have to say that RRG Macclesfield have come up trumps with service and spares every time, even though they are Toyota dealers. I'll see how I go.

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted August 27, 2017 As it's an import you'd do well to post up pics of the JDM differences and list how it differs from a UK car. For example, dash, manual air con, fogs, xenon headlights, interior trim etc. Also whether it has an LSD or not. All these things will help with the sale. There are some high spec imports about, but giving the details would certainly help. Also clearly stating it's an import in your ad would help too I think.

As said, that was 14 years ago and things may have changed. I wish you the best of luck with your sale and hope you heath improves too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
