Yep, I did, bought my 95 WRX from them.


My car in Jap Performance UK's warehouse

Very good service, car had an MoT before I got it but they still re-MoT'd it for me on the day I got it so I had 12months from day 1.

The clutch went a week after getting the car and they sorted it out for me no probs. I've not had any problems with the car since.

Bought my car from this place 100% Genuine, went to see loads of Scoobies before buying mine.

Take a trip down feller as their are a fair few import dealerships down bradford way & see for your self.

Infact i'm popping down on the weekend to see the white Type- R they have in stock, see if they'l take mine as a trade in.

Martynhutch - Thats a sweet Type - R mate, similar to the one they have in stock

9th one down:

Thats where mines from, excellent choice, tidy motors. Had no problem to date 'touch wood'

Infact a good friend bought his Impreza from their spending £1100 on extra's, he got it to how he wanted it which is another big advantage when you buy from them.

I paid £4500 and £100 for the clocks converting. Seems to be about average price for a decent example. You can get Imprezas for less but will probably need work.

Appears to me that certain people are not so keen on this garage after problems with there cars but the simple answer to this is the garage has to stand a warranty. That is the law so if you have a problem within a certain time go back to them if this dosnt work seek legal advice.
