2000 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Version VI (GC8) — Silver

All-wheel drive and a manual gearbox, which on a GC8 STI is really the only way the car makes sense. This is a Version VI, first registered in February 2000, so it's one of the last of the original-shape Imprezas before the bugeye replaced it. Silver, four-door saloon, right-hand drive, petrol. The odometer stood at 153,400 km.

The engine is the EJ207, a 2.0-litre (2000cc) turbocharged boxer four, and the model code on the registration is GF-GC8.

Repair history not recorded for this vehicle.

On the mileage: 153,400 km sounds like a lot until you divide it by the car's age, at which point it's a normal figure for a Japanese-market STI that was used the way Subaru intended. The GC8 chassis has a reputation for taking that kind of use without complaint. What we'd check on a Version VI at this distance is the usual list for a turbocharged EJ: boost pressure holding steady, no smoke on start-up, and a look under the car for how the driveline has been treated.
