Default RA-R forsale

Saw this in this months edition of Japanese Performance. Just over £42000 which is crazy considering the car was about £30k new. Suppose there can only be a handfull in Europe, no matter what the price is it's by far my favourite car.

It's becuase its in Italy, Impreza are as rare as **** in parts of europe and command a high premium, thats why so many are bought here and taken over the water.

RA-R has never been left hand side. It has been redone, as a lot of them being converted back @ my home , or east europe. i know a guy from Latvia who has one, and it cost him round 30k euros, car + convertion kit.

The LHD conversion it self cost's about £10k and they have to pay taxes. It will fetch that sort of money all day long in Italy as they pay £50k for standard euro spec sti.

Yep tax is the killer in this neck of the woods, i'm in croatia close to italy and a lot of the cars here come from italy and are even on italian plates, and if i tried to import it into croatia it would cost another 20k to do it, i have a mate who just paid 7k for a 6yr old 80,000 mile renault kangoo, something like a £500 fiesta would cost around 3k here

Emailed the guy just for a nosey, he sent me a few pictures, has a front mount, flocked dash, defi's, LHD conversion cost 15000 im guessing euros and from a picture of the clocks it says just under 48k which im guessing is KM's.

He also said he requested it from Litchfield to be imported from Japan.

Both the yellow and white one a gorgeous, yellow one is well priced, would hate to see the price after import duties and reg tax.
