been offered...2.0 or 2.5 WRX..??
 
Just been offered a standard 2.5 WRX about 6 months old and a 2.0 WRX with PPP about 10 months old......both about the same mileage and price.....which one would you get...???

10 month old 2.0 WRX ?
I thought the 2.5 had been out a lot longer than that.

The PPP will have a bit more power.

Price ?

Flaps 08 June 2007 12:01 PM

Hawkeye V Blobeye?
Hard choice :wonder:
I'd go Blobeye with PPP.

I think it was one of the last 2.0's....late Reg.?

Having said that, the colour would play a large part in my decision, what are they?

ProdriveSTI 08 June 2007 12:51 PM

I always go for the "newer" model that I can afford.
therefore
Hawkeye 2.5 for me!

PPP or TSL it @ a later date :thumb:

Scoobylambo 08 June 2007 01:24 PM

WR blue (2.5) or silver (ppp)

Luckyscoob 08 June 2007 01:37 PM

2.5 hawkeye for me!. Had both and would never go back. Put PPP on the new 2.5 and its well sorted, by far the better car in my opinion.

Jimpreza 08 June 2007 02:27 PM

as above for me

Abx 08 June 2007 02:37 PM

Hawkeye, if it was my cash I'd want the newest shape I could have, I could have had a 55 plate STI for the same as a brand new Hawkeye WRX, brand new one it was for me, easy.

thanks for the advice, I usually go for blue.?

Scoobylambo 10 June 2007 05:15 PM

how will I know what car tax, the 2.5 is a 56 reg ( Dec 2006 )

jayltee1 10 June 2007 05:26 PM

If you look here:
The cost of vehicle tax for cars, motorcycles, light goods vehicles and trade licences : Directgov - Motoring

2.5 WRX = 244 co2 - Registered after Mar 2006 = £300 now. That might go up to £400 next year?

The 2.0 WRX PPP = 215 co2 - will be £205.

hallsy67 10 June 2007 05:32 PM

if its registered on or after the 23rd march 06 and over 225 g/km its £300 at present but from next year its £400 im told, ive just checked mine was registered 22/03/06 phew
