It looks like another case of Rip Off Britain - check out www.ridhaa.com - M plate WRX's for £2.5K! shipping £500, SVA £170 and tax @10% of the basic unit price = £3.5k!

Anyone used these guys before?

* import duty(10%) 3278
* VAT (17.5%) 3851

cost of prep
DIY 0
Garage 250 ish
SVA itself 180

Will the tyres pass the sva ? £250 if not
Do you know its history

more like £5.5 to be on the safe side, with probably no alarm fitted
