i agree with watto get a uk version, cheap insurance and slightly cheaper to run. for 5 bags you will get a phat early one with all the extras or why not pay 3 bags and get a half decent one and your insurance is covered?????????

just look for the usual, crash damage, thrashed, mods, security and history.
the fuel will be cheaper to as you can run these on normal unleaded with no additives but i would still run it on super for maximum performance. theres a couple of nice ones on ebay.

depends on how long you want to keep it. but with a subaru it doesnt really matter. personally id go for the best in your budget.
