That silver VE is back on ebay again!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tem=4633449657
I emailed the previous buyer to tell him about the club and he replyed saying that he needed to sell his old car to get the money to pay for the SVX. It looks like he didn't succeed.

Hia folks. Had seen it relisted despite the fact that it was sold last time with no reserve for around £2500 so assume must have the usual Ebay timewasters. This silver car looks great and has a half decent spec seemingly close to that of a UK car. Tempting ......... Still not "worth" ( well it would be if the SVX was a known brand here !) £3995 though ! I might try and get to see it as quite local to me work permitting, cheers David

This is one rare car! "ONLY 14257 EVER MADE WORLDWIDE"
I wasn't too keen on the floor mats until I saw the Alcyone & SVX logo on them. Now I want some for my wife's Teal! That is a nice looking car. In the US, that would be considered a very low mile car. With the UK having a few less miles/kilometers of roadway compared to the US, would you guys also consider it to be low mileage? Everything I know about England, I've learned from Red Dwarf, Dr. Who. and Carol Smiley.

What's the white junk sprayed over the manifold?

I noticed that too, my first thought was road salt, lots of corrosion on the intake, alternator and A/C compressor. The plastic and rubbery bits to the left and right seem to be fairly spotless?
I think the radiator has been replaced and didn't line up correctly. Each of the mounting brackets are missing a bolt. That lighter area just below the radiator cap looks like mine did as mine was starting to form its crack, same location too. Maybe the white stuff and corrosion is being caused by leaking coolant? The more I look at this 53,000 mile engine picture, mine are starting to look pretty clean! Dan |

The floormats are really nice when you see them for real. Really thick plush carpet, with the shiny gold logo. The pattern is supposed to be a blue rose with green leaves.
53k is definitely considered low mileage for a 12 year old car in the UK. But as David said, it's not worth 3995. At the 2004 JAE meet, Barry had a very similar SVX, minus the sunroof and airbags IIRC. It had about 40k miles and was absolutely spotless, even the engine compartment. It looked like he'd just driven it out of the showroom that morning - except the wheels were on backwards. http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/files/b3lha/19757.jpg
