Just made a big mistake. Was all ready to go for a WRX (to be PPP'd at 1000 miles) then drove the STI. BUGGER!

It looks like I have been seriuosly won over.

Now, due to the measly amount I have been offered in part ex, I would like to know if anyone has knowledge of dealers that are prepared to DEAL, not quote book price for everything.

I do not really want to import, unless I can get delivery by end of April and they will take a part ex.

All help and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Tony

If I can't get the right deal I may have to stick to the WRX and I am not sure that I want to do this now.

Hi Tony,talk to Jon Mathers @ Cross Roads Subaru in Tredington,Warwickshire on 01608 661544.He definately will deal & gave me a superb price for my '00 ppp'd turbo against a PPP'd sti8,even though it had 58000 miles on the clock.He's also looked after several of my mates in the same manner.Make the call,you wont be sorry!

I think the problem youve got is they dont HAVE to deal at the moment - its the latest thing, they can sell as many as they can get, and they dont HAVE to reduce the price, nor do they have to give you anything but peanuts for your current pride and joy.

Buy the one from bignuts for 22500, hes already run it in for you!

Tony,

I know a dealer that is willing to deal!

Like you I hate paying full whack for anything, I managed to get a grand off list for my MY03 WRX (£ 19,000.00 inc mats, fuel, met paint and VAT)!

Let me know and I'll put you in touch.

Tim

3times,

The dealer I bought my scoob from will deal. It took me a week, but during that time the part ex figure increased by a grand. They're in Cambridge. If you need details call me on 07801 688533.

Rich.
ps I think I met you at Ace Cafe.

Gossy,

Is that Mill Lane Engineering and is that "£19995"?
