Hi, I got rid of my Scoob back in November - I'd had a great run with it (nearly 3 years) - but had terrible trouble with Donnellys in belfast - I have since bought an X5 and use it for work and family, but recently had a hankering for a "weekend car" - you know something fun. I thought I'd check Donnelly's for some 2nd hand wrx or sti - but the website and reference from subaru.co.uk has gone - has anyone heard anything - are they bust?



Any info appreciated

They're still there, i was there yesterday looking at the 08 STi. I've always found their 2nd hand cars far too dear, as with most dealers, far better to buy private.

I thought someone said they were no longer official Subaru dealers ??

Not surprised really if its true...

Thanks for the feedback - I had hoped they'd closed up - terrible to say really, but I had some terrible times with them, as I'm sure many here can testify. I gave them plenty of chances to get me into another Scoob before turning my back on them. I had a look at the Eastwood website - but they don't seem to be exactly coming down with Subaru's - yep, the RB320 would be nice, but I'm not convinced that nearly 30k is a good deal?

LOL - just had a look at the Gibson Autos webpage - if that's the new Skyline then I'll eat my slippers.

Just because it isnt on their website, doesnt mean they cant supply....Im sure a lot of good stock doesnt make it online...

I dont know much about Eastwoods, except to say I dont think Ive ever heard anyone speak bad of them. So they must be doing a pretty good job keeping customers happy, so might be worth calling in or phoning them.

Gotcha, I have a trip to Lisburn coming up shortly - I'll programme in the sat nav to take me via Eastwoods - Ta!

yep that's the one. some nice motors, but i can't vouch for provenance. the one i bought was fine for about 3 months then i started to upgrade.
