If you open your door whilst the car is running, and then turn the engine off, do you get a door open bong?

Check for: Cracked exhaust manifold(s) - ticky sound on cold start (not injector tick) Valley plate leak If the radiator has been replaced, these cars are 15+ years old now so plastic gets brittle and they all explode eventually Exhaust condition Other than that just general car buying things, tyres brakes suspension etc.

Hi all, I've got my eye on some wheels with winter tyres, for those that have a better idea of fitment on these cars, do we think they'll fit? 18x8j ET30 225/45 on all 4 Thank you!

Which one did you go for in the end?

Cactus' one sounds like the one for you bro!

@hawkesy226 did you buy R19PAJ off eBay by any chance?

Enquired about this one, last serviced in 2018 🙃The seller didn't speak very good english either which made it difficult to ascertain any more info about the car

Japanese imports are not guarantees of a well looked after car either. Also, insurance (in my case as I am mid 20s) can be an absolute nightmare, compared to a UK model. To each their own, but when dropping this amount of money on something I'd rather be able to see it, check it and drive it in person before handing over the cash.

Anyone got any experience/test driven/know about that USB 2010 ISF that is listed on AT? Reg EO10KXH. It has been listed for over a year, a few price reductions that I can see, but it is not budging. Presumably there is something up with it? Or just strong money for a 'mid-facelift' (no new instrument cluster or DRLs but has updated infotainment with DAB/LSD etc.)

@JimmyTightlips were you the one that bought it in the end? It's disappeared from AT and Ebay!

I think anywhere around the £20k mark is my maximum. Right car will be worth the right money though. In all honesty, I'd prefer one that has a bit more wear and tear so I don't feel as precious about it given it'll be my daily, so that should help keep me within the budget!

Hi all! I posted in the 'Wanted' section but thought I'd try my luck in here/increase visibility! I currently drive a Subaru Legacy 3.0R Spec.B with the 6 speed. Fantastic car, makes all the right noises, gets a shift on and very practical, but I have always lusted after an ISF and a recent change in circumstance means I might be able to afford one now! Are there are any 2010+ cars for sale by members right now? Or any members that have been considering selling? Please let me know! Thank you 🙂

I'd much prefer to buy from the OC though, more likely to have been looked after!

Hi all, Can't see any for sale at the moment, but wondering if any current owners of the facelift variant of an ISF are looking to sell within the next few months? Please let me know!

You could try looking for an exhaust system from a breaker's car, although no guarantee that that exhaust isn't also full of holes.
