Well the WRX PPP cost is £1600 but the STI cost should be £1995. It's a fixed price and on Subaru's web site.

Point that out to him.

show him your mates receipts for £1600 and see if he does the deal,look around different dealers and see if you get extras ie sidc discount/refurb alloys/new pads if you do not ask you do not get!

Your were quoted £1995 which is the price. The confusion is that originally the sales guy you spoke to was under the impression you had a wrx not sti and quoted £1600. If you have an issue call me, Gary Bickmore Sales manager 01476 590077 and I will talk to you. We have never fitted a PPP to an STi for £1600 inc VAT and fitting). I wish we could.

Isn't it good when people actually speak to each other?
Please take this a classic example of why we have to be so careful with posts such as this.
