Default Anyone got a late JDM WRX Sti saloon? What's the road tax?

Looking at some options, one being a late JDM 2011-2013 WRX Sti saloon or hatch if one comes up. My query is the road tax cost and whether it's still reduced in the import classification similarly to other earlier JDM's?

Hi, thanks for the response out of interest what year is your hatch, thanks. I'm wondering in general if DVLA have changed any levies or duties on later JDM cars if anyone else has any info that would be great.

09, so not so new, but I think the point is that as these models are not on UK data bases, so 2.0l ones are rated at £ 270 to suit box ticking/computer says no scenario. Only assuming this, mind
