Default Shock (perhaps) for WRX STI owners

Projected values* for 0353 wrx stis and sti prodrives for June have fallen by £800 and £900 respectively - bloody hell. In comparison my classic has "only" decreased by 260 notes. I guess they feel that 4wd and summer are not mutually beneficial. Or are those spawney getz taking delivery of their spanking WR1s responsible?

BTW I'm not gloating.

You should have got shares in M&S last week, they hold their value very well (up 20% in one day )

True - but the drop last month was £250, so maybe a slight adjustment was required.

Some good remarks made here !!

And the end of the day, with very very few exceptions, the dearer the car, the more you've got to loose / are going to lose.

And anyone buying a brand new or near new scoob knows that, and are prepared for it.

So who cares ?!
