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?

May have missed a couple of things S96,

What sort of condition, mileage.

Basic of 2500
shipping 450 ish
ship insurance 30
-------------------------
2980

* import duty(10%) 3278
* VAT (17.5%) 3851
prep for sva
basic parts 100 ish
cost of prep
DIY 0
Garage 250 ish
SVA itself 180
6 months tax 88 ish
reg the car 30 ish
No plates 20
---------------------------
4519
Will the tyres pass the sva ? £250 if not
Do you know its history
Cam & Alt belt change, oil+fuel filter change, brakes service.
£700 ???????
(no alarm)

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