i'd heard that as well mate , personally i'd have bought it but probably not paid more than £20k for it .
I read the report that scoobynutta had done & it was only small bits but the way they advertised it & the way they treated him was terrable , it's just a shame that they dont come on here ........
If you were looking for a 22b gaz theres a minter for sale at EDEN SUBARU in scotland £22900............

I have had two cars off them and am very happy with the service I received.
Both cars came with a 3 month warranty and when a small problem did arise with my WRX they sorted it out very quickly and effectively.
Graham Walkers received a right slating on Scoobynet over the 22b most of it from people who were just jumping on the bandwagon and had never had any dealings with them.I admit it does look like the guy with the deposit was treated a little harshly but there are two sides to every story.
All I can say is that I have spent nearly £30k at Graham Walkers over the past few months and I am totally satisfied with the service I have received from them and the quality of their work,I am actually going back next week to spend a bit more on some brakes.
I dont suppose you have bought my old WRX have you,an 02 plate in dbm with uk300 lights?

Gaz, give them a call I am sure they will see you right.Matts away at the moment but I am sure Neil will sort you out.
I had a couple of issues with my first WRX and started to panic when the 22b story surfaced but instead of joining in the slanging match on Scoobynet I just called them and told them my concerns and they were great with me and sorted everything out.
Good luck
Dan

Re the 22B i didnt buy on expert advice. This is a 22b on Ebay with the same pics as the car I saw at Graham Walkers:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1998-SUBARU-IM...QQcmdZViewItem

Although I suspect it may be a different car with some sort of Ebay muppet stealing pictures. (look at the options list and safety features )

Regards two sides of every story, yes there is. I was nothing but straight and honest with my dealings with the garage. Unfortunatly GWs are not up to the standard I expect from a garage, let alone a "subaru specialist" whatever that meaningless phrase means.
