MY05 Sti 05 From Cyrpus
Looking at the above at the moment and it being a Euro Import, what are the implications. I have 2 main concerns,
Is the warranty valid for the 3 yrs. Are the service intervals the same. Will UK dealers warrant it. Can I get ppp fitted here and retain my warranty. Thanks in advance. |

Service intervals are the same. Not sure about the warranty though. I can provide you with the number of a local Subaru dealership here if thats any help? |
Cheers Mate,
If you could that would be great. |
YES, the service intervals are the same (10000 miles or a year)
YES, you can get PPP fitted at a Subaru Main Dealer YES, the warranty is 3 years, just like the UK car, or just like any other EU member state car! With the UK warranty, you also get breakdown assistance, unfortunately you won't have that with your EU car. You have to register the warranty with Subaru UK yourself, it's a phone call to Subaru UK Birmingham, and they will tell you how to do it. If you have any problems or hostility from ANY Subaru Dealers, just call Subaru UK and ask to speak to the Managing Director of Subaru UK, who will very positively tell you that 'all customers who own Subaru's will be treated equally at all main dealers'. Hope this helps! |
I like your style Mate, Thats good enough for me and thanks for your help.

And contrary (sp?) to popular mis-information insurance on UK spec EU car (Cyprus is now an EU member) is no different from UK cars...!!!;)
Insurance for PPP on the other may prove a problem. If so try A Plan, excellent service and prices...! Go for it but remember to consider main dealers are offering free PPP at the mo. The EU price needs to reflect this.;) |
Are you sure that you won't void the warranty if you fit the PPP to a cyprus car as its the cyprus dealer who honours the warranty not the UK?
If the STI service intervals are the same as the WRX then they are slightly different as they are in Kilometres 5000K for the first one not 1000miles

Yes, i'm sure thankfully! I've owned an EU WRX PPP 03 and 02, and both had warranty claims (a couple of minor things). There was a time when you could not get PPP fitted to an EU car and still have the warranty honoured, but I believe that was pre-2003 sometime, not sure exactly when!
And as for Cyprus, i'll be there in 11 days! That's where you see some superb Scooby's in abundance, loads of highly modified classic 2 door type RA's, more Spec C's than you see here, and even new shape Scoobs with the 2003 front, and bugeye rear lights! Limassol for Scooby's is like Tokyo or Osaka. I'll take some pics and post when I get back. |

Service intervals are different due to the climate, you NEED to stick to these if you want to retain your warranty, they are less than a UK STi so it will cost you more to run.
