advice please
hello to everybody,ive just joined this forum to hopefully get some unbiased advice on buying a scoopy,i have @ £15k to spent ,but im quite green on these cars as to what to look for and whats best value for ,money ie running costs servicing etc ,im looking for either one with a ppp pack or the sti version ,but any advice greatfully recieved
|
15k will get you an 04 (maybe an 05) Scoopy ;) privately. The Sti is very different to the WRX, have you driven one yet?
|
Matt's made a good point - best to drive both and make your own mind up. Also drive a JDM (jap import)
|
best advice is to first find out about insurance, its gonna be steep, so make sure you can afford to pay the required amount each year.

If you're not interested in modifying the car, then get one with the PPP, otherwise i wouldn't pay the premium for getting it and spend that on better modifications. . . . . . Oh, and buy black, it's faster! :Suspiciou :D |

If i had £15k to a subaru now, i would buy a JDM STi. It has a better spec and performance. If an jap import is not your thing, then you should be able to get an UK/EU 05 STi for that money.
that's exactly what I would do if I could 'do it all again' depends what you want though, if you're just buying it 'cos you want something a bit quick with AWD then get the PPP |
