Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This is a very low mileage and well-maintained 1996 Subaru Impreza Series McRae, #188 of 200. It features a recent respray, original components, and is mechanically sound, making it a highly desirable example for collectors.

Condition

8

This Series McRae Impreza, #188 of 200, presents remarkably well due to its low mileage (11,111 miles) and a recent respray. The car retains its original features, including the radio cassette head unit, and benefits from a thorough recommissioning completed a few hundred miles ago. While it has had a few owners, the car's originality and condition are excellent.

This Series McRae is number 188 of 200 and is particularly notable for its miniscule mileage, rather neatly reading 11,111 miles on the day of our shoot.

The Impreza was supplied new in July 1996 by Brandon Motors of Edinburgh.

The original owner, a Mr Ali, appeared to retain the Series McRae up until 1999 when it was sold in a BCA Fleet and Finance Auction without a V5 registration document.

The buyer at that point was a Subaru enthusiast and collector.

No V5 was applied for at that stage, with the collector using it very sparingly (approximately 500 miles in 20 years).

Upon the collector’s death the Subaru was entered into the 2019 Brooklands Motor Museum auction as a probate sale, still without a registration document.

The Subaru was bought by the trade at that point who used Thursley Motors to fully recommission the Series McRae.

A V5 registration document was obtained at this stage, accounting for the two previous keepers currently registered against the car.
