Default Looking to buy a Hawkeye STi

Hi all,


Looking to buy a Hawkeye STi this weekend or next as my T5 is currently up for sale. I've found a few cars that looked good but have then read bad reviews about the dealers (Boyz Toyz ltd, Graham Walker, C Performance..). I'm wanting to buy from a dealer as a bit of peace of mind and a warranty etc. Can anyone recommend me a dealer? I'm based in Worcester but willing to travel a hundred miles or so

Cheers!

I'd avoid anything with the name 'Boyz Toyz'. Seriously, who comes up with something as bad as that?! Sorry I can't be of further help!

Nailed it.. I guess it'll attract some clients but I wouldn't want to put myself under the same clientele

The warranty that the cars come with is something you can get on any car new or old its just insurance for engine and gearboxs etc.I have bought cars from dealers in the past and just told them to scrap the warrant and take the money off the price. Its not quite the same as you get on a new car.Try What car magazine I think they list the good ones.

Jperformance used to have some good examples on their website. Was a father son setup. The son Sam I think his name was dealt with the subaru side if things although they don't seem to show up on piston heads that much anymore but a company called nas performance do and the pictures in some look like the same so they may of changed names

If it were me I would be speaking to the guy at Hurst cars, think he goes by max and is a member on here. Looks like he's started importing them to so a Jdm hawkeye could be your choice

Good luck

I saw a few of their adverts on Pistonheads and the cars all looked incredible, but all of their listed stock had sold. I'd given them an email a week or two ago but no reply.. Will try again, cheers!

Definitely! I used to go to uni in Bristol and go down once every few months to see mates and that, I'll be sure to let you know if I do

Plenty of stock on Walkers site with two cars that tick all my boxes.. I've just read bad things online? Should probably take it with a pinch of salt, but saying that and spending £10k+ don't go hand in hand lol..
