Default Buying WRX.... History??

Hi guys.

Went and had a look at a WRX yesterday. Silver MY00 with a fair amount of work done.

The owner mentioned that the guy that built it was named Darren at Technik Audio and he did some skidpans with P-WRX back when he owned it. He also mentioned Jester and Stacey knew Darren...
Just wondering if anyone knew anything about it??

Cheers
Maca

Yes, I know Darren *nod.

That was a brilliant car when he owned it. A very nice well sorted package capable of daily duties (we took it to Albany an it was comfortable) and then straight into a skid pan session if you wanted to.

Is there a carsales link or something?

$15k seems cheap for all the work Darren put into it. Hopefully that owner looked after it like Darren did

It has been a few years now since Darren did own it, so keep that in mind when taking in all the 'was amazingly good condition when Darren owned it'..

Yea - if that was Dazzlers car NOW I'd say buy it. What or how it's been treated since then is anyones guess.

If it still has the sub on the boot I can vouch for it's amazing musicality but that's Macey for you
